Iris and Dan, what a beautiful couple, and married at the Mark Twain Hotel and Packard Plaza on April 21st 2012! As the day began in Peoria Illinois, I finally had the chance to meet the absolutely stunning bride, Iris, and although the nerves had definitely kicked in at this point, she was just as beautiful as ever! As Iris and Dan exchanged personal wedding gifts without seeing each other before the festivities began, you could hear the love in their notes and the see it in the smiles on their faces!

The wedding was short and sweet with personal vows written by both the Bride and Groom. Tears flowed from parents and it was such a happy place to be! After the ceremony we whisked away for those exciting portraits of the day! Although the weather decided to throw us mere 40 degree temperatures, we more than succeeded in capturing beautiful images throughout our quick walk down by the river front!

Wishing Iris and Dan a lifetime of happiness together, congratulations once again newlyweds!
