Awe yeah. So. I got hitched. To a beautiful lady. We both partied super hard on our wedding day (Like all wedding couples should) and at the end of the night her dress was pretty dirty. Now, I know that dresses are important. They are huge! You gotta pick the right one and most ladies, when they find it, bust out in tears (Seen one to many “Say Yes To The Dress” episodes). Some dresses are very expensive. Big investment. The one thing that I don’t get though, is why are people so scared of getting it a little dirty? (Probably because I am a boy and all of our clothes get dirty no matter how fancy they are).

Anyoldways. We had a great time and Jake took awesome photos. Nicole and I chatted on our honeymoon up to Door County about doing a Trash The Dress shoot when we got back into town.

So, we got into town and a few days after, there was great weather and we were off to shoot some photos. Now, the point of a TTD is not to “Trash” the dress, but more so to put it into a situation that you wouldn’t put it in on your wedding day. I do understand trying to keep the dress kinda clean on the day of, specially before the ceremony, but after, just let loose… I digress. We ran around by the Lakefront Brewery and over by the old Pabst Brewery and took photos until it get super chilly and the sun was low in the sky.  Check out what we got below.

P.s. Thanks Mari for the help! You rock!

P.p.s. If you go to Comet Cafe and Andy is tending the bar, ask for a Mari and you will have a tasty drink in your hands. Tell him I sent you.
