Meet Carli and Graig! Married at The Main Event in Terre Haute, Indiana.
In case you didn’t know, Graig is a police detective. When we met up with them before the wedding, Carli told us how much she loves her wedding dress and has it hidden at her parents’ house. Nick replied, “Well, Graig is a detective. I’m sure he wouldn’t have a problem finding it.”
1. Graig had Carli’s ring hidden for about six months before he proposed.
2. Check out Graig’s ring! It was made especially for a police officer.
Say hello to the beautiful Carli!
Meet Carli and Graig’s daughter, Blaklie! Hanging out with her grandma while the girls get ready.
There were several sweet little ones running around throughout the morning.
Carli, you don’t have your hair done, your makeup isn’t finished, and that perfect dress of yours is still on the hanger, but you are so beautiful! Gah!!
Meet her handsome groom, Graig!
Since Carli was so busy with school and work, Graig was actually the one who contacted us, put together a meeting, and finalized all the details relating to photography. Such a good guy, Graig!
Gotta watch Carli’s hair being styled.
See, friends?! So pretty!
Time for little Miss Blaklie to get into her flower girl dress.
AND time for Carli to get into her wedding dress!
One of my favorites!
That shot on the right is Carli with her mom.
While I was hanging out with the ladies, Nick photographed the groomsmen.
Love it, guys!
Check out that beautiful bouquet!
First look with her dad. Tears were shed by both of them.
Then Graig and Carli had their first look right outside the venue.
Love this one.
“Will you do some walking for me?” They did!
Another favorite! Would you look at that veil!! We had to get a shot of it in all its glory.
The whole crew!
It was important for Blaklie to be in several photos. These next two are my favorite mother/daughter images.
