Ok so I’m not going to lie, this is a long one – but for good reason! I met Katie when I was finishing up my last year of college down in Peoria. We quickly became good friends, and worked together for a while. Katie became a rock for me the next two years of my life. We were inseparable, and I just absolutely adore this girl! Katie and Jake started dating 5 years ago, and to be able to be a part of their wedding and watch them come together was just an amazing experience. I love them and just adored this wedding, please enjoy the pics!!!
