Baylie + Tanner / a romantic wedding on both sides of the Mississippi River

Baylie and Tanner had one amazing wedding day! It began in Fulton, Illinois at Cross View church for the ceremony. I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a more excited groom… he flew down the stairs to greet his bride, only to find out that he jumped the gun a little bit and was supposed to wait. It didn’t matter though, in fact, it made the moment all that more memorable!

It is clear to see how much they love each other. The way Tanner looks at Baylie is the sweetest, he obviously adores her. And Baylie said one of the first things she loved about Tanner was his sense of humor! If you were there for the garter toss, I think you’ll know what she’s talking about. Haha! I mean, that was pretty entertaining if I do say so myself!

After the ceremony, we went to the beautiful Eagle Point Park in Clinton, Iowa for some outdoor portraits and then headed to the lodge for their reception.

It’s truly been such an honor getting to know these two this past year. They are so compatible with one another, both equally laid back but charming, fun to be around and honestly just perfect together! It was also a great experience seeing their families come together to support their new marriage and dance the night away, celebrating the newest addition to their families!

Cheers to many years, Mr and Mrs Heppner!

Thank you to all of the vendors and family members of the bride and groom who helped pull this shindig together so beautifully!
