mary and matt say i do

On Saturday we had our first wedding of the year! Mary and Matt are two of the most fun, happy, genuine people! They are the kind of people that make you just feel good to be around them. You can imagine how happy we were to start of the year with this wonderful couple!

At first we were actually a little intimidated to meet their families because Mary's dad is the former president of Purdue University, Dr. Martin Jischke. He was the president at Purdue the last year we attended the university, so we felt like we were meeting celebrities! They couldn't have been nicer! The entire day was relaxed and fun and we really enjoyed our time together.

Mary and Matt were married at the beautiful Second Presbyterian Church in Indianapolis, followed by a rockin' reception at the Indiana State Museum. Following an elegant introduction and dinner, the sounds of the band Toy Factory filled the air and the dance floor filled.

In lieu of cake, this couple had cupcakes... and there's a story behind them! When the Jischke kids were little, if they wanted something (especially when there were cupcakes around) they would lick one so that no one else would get to eat it. When Mary decided Matt was the one for her, she LICKED him across the face and declared, "My cupcake!" Hence, the cupcakes......and, the photo below of Mary licking Matt at the alter. :) They are adorable! Mary, I hope you don't mind us telling that story!!

Thank you so much, Mary and Matt, for inviting us to share in your wedding day. We were honored to be there and so excited to stat the year off right!!! Enjoy your honeymoon (NEAR) Cancun!!!

Wow, wow, wow! Thank you for the kind words and the preview of some beautiful photographs! The night went so quickly for me that it's great to see a few captured moments already. I'm SO glad you caught a photo of me giving Matt a good lick on the face (you can see how tolerant he's become of it...it didn't even phase him!!). :)
What an eye you have for great photographs...I was looking through the rest of the blog also. Your talents are quite a gift!
Looking forward to seeing the rest!
Thanks again,
Mary
