Chateau On The Lake (Branson)

Fairy tales can come true, it can happen to you
If you're young at heart.
For it's hard, you will find, to be narrow of mind
If you're young at heart.


I thought I'd start this post with the words to that old Frank Sinatra song because it describes this couple - and their wedding day - very well:)

Chris and Deb's wedding was one of the most beautiful I've shot this year, due in no small part to the very special love they share together.

Add a wonderful ceremony at the Forsyth Community Presbyterian Church, a beautiful reception at the famous Chateau On The Lake, and a bright, clear autumn day in scenic Branson, MO... and you indeed have the makings of a fairy tale wedding.

I started shooting the couple's wedding pictures as they were making their final preparations about an hour before the ceremony...

Tony and Allison's Wedding at the Veridian

Tony and Allison chose one of Springfield's most distinguished venues for their beautiful wedding and reception.

Located just off Park Central Square at 309 South Avenue, The Veridian Events Center offers everything from a two-story lobby/atrium, to a spacious ballroom, and even an outdoor deck.

As you'll see in the photos below, I was able to take advantage of all three spaces to capture Tony and Allison's wedding photos at the Veridion.

We started shooting their wedding pictures just as the bride was making her final preparations...






These are of course just a sample of the moments and memories that I captured for Tony and Allison on their special day.

Kentwood Hall Crystal Room

Gary and Dawn chose a beautiful, unique venue for their wedding in Springfield, MO:  The Kentwood Hall Crystal Room.

Located just east of the square at 700 E. St. Louis in Springfield, Kentwood Hall was formerly known as the Kentwood Arms Hotel.  Many famous statesmen, entertainers and celebrities stayed there, ranging from Harry S. Truman to Groucho Marx.

The venue's rich history was a perfect backdrop for the very classic, romantic love that was evident throughout Gary and Dawn's special day.

Here are some sample pictures from their beautiful wedding day...
