Vedrana and Josh's Gorgeous May Day

Remember when Josh bought his bride Vedrana last week?  Well this week I'm back with the rest of their stunning May wedding!  The ceremony was held at  St. George Serbian Orthodox Church in Joliet, Illinois, where the couple participated in a crowning ceremony (as opposed to traditional wedding vows).  After the gorgeous, gorgeous ceremony, the celebration continued at The Abbington in Glen Ellyn where the crowd was romanced by accordion AND a DJ.  And best of all, these incredible photos were taken by Mark Meravy, who spent the entire day photographing the love birds.

The bride's lace gown is from Maggie Sottero, and the bridesmaids had two chocolate-confections to choose from at Davids Bridal.  The darling pink flower girls' frocks were scored at Nordstrom, and the little girl in brown wore an etsy find!  Even with so much romance and eye candy, however, the bride's favorite moments of the day were seeing her husband's face when she walked down the aisle, the moment when the crown was put onto his head (he was raised Catholic, so this was new territory for this good-humored groom), and of course, their first dance (to The Prayer)!  At the end of the day, the guests had an incredible time, and the couple had a personal, perfect day!

Congratulations and best wishes to Vedrana and Josh!
