Ali & Jake | Erin’s Pavilion Springfield, IL Navy & Sage Fall Wedding Photographer

Ali and Jake waited a whole extra year to finally get married but it was so worth it! They chose the first Friday in October and it was an absolutely gorgeous day! Ali and her bridesmaids all got ready together in the morning while the guys hung out as well. We all met up for Jake and Ali’s first look and it was truly a special moment. Ali looked absolutely stunning and they both were tearful as they got to recite their vows to each other privately. Next, Jake got to see his two beautiful baby girls for the first time on their wedding day. Their sweet daughters Kinsley and Kendall looked just as beautiful as their momma! We captured some really fun portraits of Ali and Jake, their girls and their bridal party before heading off to Erin’s Pavilion to finally get them married!

Both girls walked down the aisle, Kendall escorted by her daddy and finally Ali’s dad walked her down the aisle and gave her away to Jake. After 9 years of dating and 2 beautiful girls later, Ali and Jake finally got to say I do in front of all of their family and friends! Brenda Protz spoke an amazing ceremony and guided Ali and Jake as they exchanged rings and shared their first kiss as husband and wife! They danced down the aisle as Mr. and Mrs. Williams!

Ali and Jake’s reception was full of so much love and laughter! Erin’s was beautifully decorated and all of their friends and family helped them celebrate big for their first night of marriage! We ended portrait time with a gorgeous sunset sky closing out the day so perfectly! I am so excited to share more from their big day and could not be happier for Mr. and Mrs. Williams!
