A Day Full of Joy


Lexie and Jack’s wedding day at Oak Terrace Resort in Pana, Illinois was filled with so much laughter, love, and genuine happiness. These two have such a fun energy together, and that came through in every part of the day.

A Little Rain for Good Luck


The weather kept everyone guessing for a little while, but the rain came down just long enough to bring them some good luck. It cleared right before the ceremony, and the rest of the day gave us beautiful skies, soft evening light, and the prettiest sunset for their portraits.

The Meaningful Details


One of the sweetest details from the wedding was the flowers, which Lexie’s mom grew herself. From the quiet moments before the ceremony to the laughter and dancing afterward, the entire day felt completely true to Lexie and Jack.
