Anthony and Lilly are the kind of couple that every photographer dreams of having! They are both so sweet and gracious, and just so much fun to be around! If you wanna know just how amazing relaxed they are, it down poured thirty minutes before their outdoor ceremony, but they didn’t sweat it. After waiting for the rain to stop and sending some groomsmen to get towels, they continued on with their ceremony without a care in the world! The two of them were just so excited to be marrying each other that they weren’t going to let anything get them down!

Their ceremony at the Gardens at SIUE was the perfect backdrop for their day! They got married in front of the lantern at the lake, which just screams fall wedding! I could not have picked a better spot for these two to get married at! One of the things I love the most about this spot is the leveled seating for guests so that everyone has a great view!

After their ceremony, we headed to their reception in Collinsville, which was nothing short of a blast! The whole wedding party had so much fun dancing the night away, and their bridal party was absolutely hilarious! They weren’t scared to show off some of their most ridiculous (I mean, amazing!) dance moves. Having a bridal party that can be serious when needed, but also knows how to have fun, is one of the easiest ways to a great wedding!

I feel so lucky that I got to spend Anthony and Lilly’s wedding day with them! It was another beautiful wedding filled with so much joy and love! Check out just a few of the images from their amazing wedding day and congratulations to one of the sweetest couples I know!
