Randall & Christie | Springfield, IL Navy and Burgundy Elegant Wedding Photographer

Randall and Christie, I am not even sure where to start. These two are so full of fun and love for each other! Christie is such a sweet and selfless person, she always makes sure everyone around her is having a good time. Randall is a a caring, relaxing and humble guy who loves Christie more than anything. These two finally got married after many years of dating (about time, Randall!).

The weather for Randall and Christie’s day was… well no what I would call ideal. But Christie’s laid back attitude about it made everything so easy and fun! We spent the morning in the salon, where Christie got to spend some quality time with her bridesmaids before the festivities. As we got to the church, the hustle and bustle picked up with everyone working hard to make the day so special. Christie and Randall exchanged very meaningful gifts between each other and we photographed their separate parties.

Their ceremony was adorable and so sweet. Christie and Randall’s pastor had the two of them each write letters to each other explaining how excited they were to get married. Both letters were so cute and brought on a few laughs (and tears!). Then they exchanged vows, rings, lit a beautiful unity candle, kissed and walked down the aisle as perfect newlyweds!

Before the sun set for the night, we took a very fun party bus (thanks Epic Entertainment!) down to the Capital for some formal shots. It was still very windy and chilly, but Christie, Randall and their bridal party rocked it! We embraced the wind and got some amazing action shots! These two could not have been more laid back.

The cake graced the center of the room with fresh flowers and a gorgeous cake topper. The newlyweds spent the evening celebrating their marriage and dancing the night away with their closest family and friends! I couldn’t be more happy that these two finally tied the knot!
