Stephanie grew up in Edwardsville, IL and went to college SIUE. Which is also where we shot Steph and Dan’s engagement session. Daniel grew up in Grimes, IA and attended undergrad at Northwestern College and then law school at Liberty University.
Steph and Dan met through an online dating app and had their first date at Salt and Smoke. “It was love at first sight and knew it was something special” and before you know it, they were planning their first anniversary. Dan proposed to Stephanie after a walk-through Castlewood State Park and of course Stephanie said “yes”.
The wedding day happened exactly 2 years after they first met on October 6th, 2017. So, on October 6th, 2019, Dan and Steph were wed at Little Piney Lodge in Hermann, MO. It was a beautiful, but raining day. The rain stayed away just long enough for these two to have the ceremony outside under Little Piney’s iconic gazebo overlooking the lake. They were wed by the groom’s father and they had a lovely knot tying ceremony. During the “unity ceremony” wonderful acoustic music was played by two young ladies.
We had a great time photographing and filming Stephanie & Daniel’s wedding! Congratulations and best wishes!
