Zac and Maggie had one of the most beautiful country weddings I’ve ever seen in Galena, IL on October 17. I realize there are a lot of photos here, and this is only part one.. more tomorrow!! The ceremony was held at Oak Hill and the reception at the Ramada in Galena. There was so much love and happiness in the air, not only from the couple but from all of their friends and family. Maggie is a photographer as well, and that always makes me a little nervous - but that nervousness quickly faded as I realized how much fun their day was going to be. Thank you both so much for inviting me to photograph your wedding, it was an honor to be a part of your day!!
Ceremony: Oak Hill Weddings, Galena, IL
Reception: Ramada Galena, Galena, IL
Cupcakes: Kathys Kakes LLC, Independence, Iowa
DJ: Randy Demmer, Party Express







Maggie was a little excited to see her groom!


I think he approved ![]()


The first time Maggie’s Dad saw her as a bride…












Those highly polished trolley seats are slippery in a wedding dress!

Maggie ordered her flowers online and made all of the arrangements herself! Gorgeous!

Stunning!














She even plays football with the neighborhood kids!!





They rehearsed and performed the last dance from Dirty Dancing as their first dance!










Streator Girls!!!
