Mr. & Mrs. Hooper's Wedding Day

October 24, 2020

A love story

happens once in a lifetime

and when these two sat down with us, we could tell right off what a

love story this was turning out to be. Their dreams,

plans and goals

were all mapped out right in front of us.

The best part was this wedding was planned more than a year ago and every time we touched base with them another goal was met.

Being able to watch and hear of the accomplishments, all the way through, was amazing and exciting.

Until COVID hit....

but they didn't let anything stop them and kept on pushing.

They were first married back in May so nothing could stop them.

Everything at that point was so uncertain.

They still wanted that big wedding and were striving to still make that happen.

We now fast forward to October 24, 2020.

The weather was supposed to be a beautiful, partly cloudy cool October day.

I can say it started that way but the rain came and the cold damp air was brutal!

Through it all this amazing couple made the best out of this beautiful day

no matter what the weather threw at them.

Shelby and Erik chose a beautiful venue that had it all. 

The girls were able to get ready at the venue and the guys at the hotel down the road.

My husband and I arrived at Partrician Banquet Hall in Schererville. 

Wow, it was beautiful.

It was defiantly set up for a photographer in mind. 

The gazebo outside was set up for there ceremony

and the hall was stunning with all the details and hard work Shelby and Erik had put into it.

The girls were all ready in the bridal sweet getting ready.

Shelby's smile lit up the room as she was laughing with her friends and family.

Erik was also surrounded by his family and friends and from what I hear they were having a great time.

You will have to keep a look out for some shenanigans as you look through the pictures.

All I am going to say is ask Erik about ninjas....

I hope you enjoy a small preview through our camera's eye.

A special surprise at garter time...

Pink or Blue

what will the gender of this precious new addition be??

No peaking!!

The only one who knew was Shelby's sister.

Shelby and Erik chose to do a first look.

Meet Your bridal Party.

Are you ready here comes your bride along with the rain.

I Love you

for all that you ARE 

and

all that you HAVE BEEN,

and

all that you WILL BE, 

as we go though this new journey as husband and wife

and soon to be parents.

Enjoy the journey,

all the ups and downs

and

let Love and God lead the way!!

Congratulation Mr. & Mrs. Hooper!!
