Shannon & Kip | Springfield, IL Wyndham Springfield City Centre Romantic Fall Wedding Photographer

Shannon and Kip’s wedding was one I felt like I waited forever for! I don’t know if it is because I knew she would be a stunning bride, or because I got to hear so much about it throughout their planning process. Shannon and her sister Kathryn are sweet friends of mine and I just knew how head over heels Shannon was for Kip and Kip for Shannon because I got to experience it first hand!

The morning of their wedding started out so perfectly. It was a 70 degree October day and all of Shannon’s girls surrounded her with love as she got ready for the best day ever. We headed to the beautiful First Christian Church for portrait time with both sides of the wedding party. Shannon looked amazing in her Pronovias wedding gown with gorgeous lace sleeves and Kip was dapper in a custom navy suit. As Shannon walked down the aisle with her dad, Kip could hardly contain his tears. The ceremony was simple and sweet as Shannon and Kip became husband and wife.

Afterwards the celebration began with the most amazing bridal party! These guys seriously brought it and made portrait time so much fun! We hit up some super awesome Springfield landmarks to capture Shannon and Kip completely in love and finally married! Finally, we landed at the Wyndham City Center for their beautiful reception.

Hannah Graham with Plan events had the Wyndham ballroom glamorous with candlelight and gorgeous Fall florals! It was truly a stunning space and so inviting for all of Shannon and Kip’s guests! The newlyweds entered with a bang and started off an amazing night. So many heartfelt speeches were given and Shannon and Kip danced the night away with all of their friends and family. I am so excited to share these images (and totally over-share) and I am even more excited for the new Mr. and Mrs. Walle!
