It was the way he looked at her all throughout the day. It was the way that smile never left her face when he was by her side. It was the joy you felt just watching them be around each other. All of it. Everything. It’s like we were all invited to partake in a romance novel. But this time it was so, SO much better! This was real and it was contagious!

Ashley + Kyle’s wedding day was one that made me feel like soul mates most definitely exist! If there is a couple that was made for each other it’s these two.

Their friends thought that they’d be a great fit for each other, but no one could have predicted just how perfect that match would be! It took them all of 6 months to go from dating, to engaged to married! And thank goodness because if they had to wait any longer to share each other’s last names, I think the universe would have gone off-kilter!

Venue and Location

The ceremony took place at The Pavilion at Sandy Pines in Demotte, Indiana. The location’s golf course was surrounded by wide open fields; a perfect backdrop for this couple’s dreamy, romantic wedding day photoshoot! For the wedding reception, the couple’s friends and family made their way to the Gamba Ristorante in Merrillville, Indiana for an evening of laughter, dancing, and love. It was such a privilege to walk with these two on Saturday and see the excitement of everyone around them. Ashley + Kyle are loved by so many and it’s absolutely no wonder why!

There were way too many favorites from this day, but because I can’t keep you here all day, here are some of my absolute favorites from Mr. + Mrs. Benson’s wedding day! Enjoy reliving their sweet moments!

A huge thanks to the stellar group of vendors who made this day possible!
