If ever there was a couple that deserved a beautiful wedding day, it is Tanya and Ross. They had been through some tough times, and have waited their whole lives to find a love as special as the one the have found in each other. 

Our son had just been born a few weeks earlier, and we were so excited to get back at it. On the morning of the wedding, the skies opened up and the rains came, but nothing stopped love that day.  

The groom and groomsmen prepared for the big day at Ross’s parent’s home. The Johnny Cash vibe of their suits gave us all the feels.

The bridesmaids all wore matching robes with Tanya as they had their hair and makeup done in the bridal suite on site at The Weingarten.

The younger girls wore blush, the babies were in white, and the bridesmaids wore wine. All of the ladies looked beautiful.

The Party Barn at The Weingarten in Belleville, Illinois was the perfect place for their ceremony. As the rain fell in the background, Ross’s eyes met those of his beautiful bride Tanya. She was escorted down the aisle by her two sons.

Tears were shed as the bride and groom said their “I Do’s” and were presented as husband and wife.

After the wedding the bridal party celebrated at Reifschneider’s in Freeburg, Illinois before heading out to their reception.

The couple had beautiful Fall details adorning their reception. They included pumpkins and mums that set the scene for a wonderful evening of celebrating.

The wedding reception at Turner Hall was wedding goals, full of good food, family and friends, and lots of laughs. This was a celebration to remember.

At DCCP we love capturing the intimate moments that bridal couples will cherish for a lifetime. We had a private photoshoot for Tanya and Ross under the sun at The Weingarten. We were able to capture some of the most beautiful images that the couple will have for a lifetime.

Congratulations Tanya & Ross, your wedding helps us to believe that no matter what the odds are…love wins.
