The Pavilion At Sandy Pines is a great Northwest Indiana wedding venue if you love the outdoors. This country club / golf course is beautifully landscaped and for Chris and Maureen’s June wedding we were certainly able to show all of the beauty.

Chris and Victor were married outside at Marquette Park Pavilion overlooking the beautiful lagoon near Miller Beach. Friends and family took in every word of their heartfelt vows as they read them to each other and the crowd burst with excitement as they were officially married.
Our day started with some prep photos as they helped each other tie their bowties. When they were fully dressed in their stylish fitted suits we had a ceremonial first look and then walked around the area taking photos.

Summer Wedding At Gabis Arboretum
Candid wedding photography at Gabis Arboretum.
I sure had a good time capturing Cristina and Nick’s outdoor summer wedding at Gabis Arboretum in Valparaiso, Indiana. I started at the couple’s house with dancing bridesmaids with their instant cameras and furry ring bearer and vinyl record collection while Lauren covered the guys as they blindfolded the groom before he got on the bus with the bride.
Make up artist Kelly Saulters and hair stylist Top Knot Bridal were on hand to bring out the beauty.
We then had a private first look with pictures of the wedding party and bride and groom before the ceremony.

It’s not often I give the ring bearer his own photo collage here, but the bride and groom’s beloved dog sure is something special and deserving of it.
