Emily and Adam: July 12th 2014 | Anderson Japanese Gardens and Prairie Street Brewhouse

Emily and Adam are married! I was thrilled to work with this relaxed (yet adventurous!) couple. Emily and Adam chose to wed at Anderson Japanese Gardens in Rockford, IL in the lush summer surroundings of the gardens. After wandering the gardens with friends and family, the bride and groom trekked over to Prairie Street Brewhouse where they had a lively cocktail hour, wonderful food, and a hoppin' dance party. We made it out to the dock for a few photos with the Jefferson Street bridge in the background before torrential downpours came through the city!

Emily and Adam, their families, and their friends were great company to work with throughout the whole day. Here's a look back at their day... Congratulations and may you have many blessed years ahead!
