I had taken photos for another friend and she saw them and told me I was photographing her wedding when her boyfriend was ready to pop the question. Well little did she know not too long after that he proposed! Less than a week after her and Luke got engaged, Aleah got a hold of me and the planning started! At their engagement session, I got to tour his family property and see where he proposed and really got to know Luke. Their wedding was everything she had explained to me. They had their ceremony at Prairie Street Brewhouse and the reception was at Midway Village’s old barn. It may have been hot in that barn, but that didn’t stop them from having a fantastic party with friends and family !Before I end all of the jibber jabber I have one thing left! Luke and Aleah have such an amazing love for God in their relationship and I really look up to them. They are so perfect for each other and balance each other out greatly. I am so beyond blessed that God brought them into my life. They make me want to work harder with my relationship with God and I can’t thank them enough for that!”Credits & Resources
