Brenden and Ali tied the knot on 10.01.23 at the lovely Ashton Hill in Galena, IL with all their close friends and family. We couldn’t asked for a more beautiful day. The sun was shining, no humidity, and the Fall sunset was perfect. Ali put endless amounts of time into every detail and it showed. The personal vows during the ceremony, animal napkins, seating chart and florals at the venue and lastly her dress was stunning.

A special moment that I will never truly know the impact of was Amanda’s brother walking her down the aisle. Both of Amanda’s parents passed away in 2019, making it an incredibly emotional day to experience without her guideposts present. Even though you couldn’t help but notice their absence, the love that filled the room could only be attributed to the rock solid family that Matt and Amanda have built. The bridal party was the most tight group of girlfriends one has ever seen. These ladies know how to support each other and party together.
