divina+nick

Meet Divina and Nick… They’re ridiculously good looking and OH SO fun. I laughed so much at this session that my abs were sore the next day!
We met  them at a wedding in 2006… TWO THOUSAND AND SIX! SEVENNNN YEEEEEEARS AGO! Man oh man, that’s crazy to me…. that we’ve been doing this for over seven years now… WHOA!Holy hot tamales Batman… KAPOW!They’re getting married on September 28th…. so this seemed fitting.:)HELLOOOOOO NURSE!;)
Oh, and let’s take a second to talk about her leopard skin pants… WOW.ZERS!  Not many people could pull this off…. but you Divina… you have some leopard skin pant swagger!:D
That image on the left, it’s my favorite.:!:WHOA!…then a quick outfit change:)My view.…and Mike’s view.Mike’s favorite :?:

Indianapolis, Ind.

Wedding  ::  9.28.13  ::  Merrillville, Ind.  •  Together  ::  8.15.06  •  Engaged  ::  10.27.12

Divina ::  Leasing Manager  ::  Hometown  •  Hebron, Ind.  ::   five words  •  Beautiful, Intelligent, Caring, Bad Ass, Strong

Nick  ::  Registered Nurse  •  Hometown  •  Merrillville, Ind.  ::   five words  •  Charming, Sweet, Witty, Loving, Super Hero

How they met, as told by Divina  ::  We were introduced through my MOH ironically, a group of us met out to go see a movie (Ice Age – Animated movies are really the only way to go).  Nick asked to see my phone, which was the latest, most popular color screen flip phone.  I, trying to be polite complied and this is where I should have known i’d be stuck with him for a long, long time.  As he handed it back, he said “Just so you know, I called myself from your phone so I have your number and I also programmed my number into your phone.”  At this time, quite strange – however, it lead to an awesome friendship that led us to where we are today.  Getting hitched!

I will not tell a lie… that bush was not comfortable.
I have no idea what’s going on here… I do know that it isn’t what it appears! But whatever… it made me laugh so I’m posting it.;)…nothing like an intimate moment… in the middle of the street!:D



See you in September!

Much love friends,

megan+joey

Meet the ridiculously fun & good looking duo of Megan and Joey.
We love love love when couples make their engagement sessions personal. In their case… beer!;)In other news… Eli Manning and Reese Witherspoon are getting marrrrrrried!;)Oh man, I dig this couple big time! Thanks for being down with my weird ideas. As for the guy painted on the wall… that’s Indianapolis-born writer and humanist Kurt Vonnegut.:)We had so much fun at this session! SO much.:)
I seriously can’t get over how much they look like Reese and Eli… for REAL! Okay, I’ll shush about it…Hellooooo pretty sunlight.:D
Crazy long legs and sitting cross legged is quite the feat. Good work Joey.:)Get it girl!:D

Indianapolis, Ind.

Together  ::  7.14.11  •  Engaged  ::  11.22.12  •  Wedding  ::  11.23.13

Megan  ::  Media Coordinator at sports marketing agency  •  Hometown  •  Greenwood, Ind.  ::   five words  •  fun loving, my better half (according to Joey)

Joey   ::  Sales Rep – Guinness  •  Hometown  •  Greenwood, Ind.  ::   five words  •  hilarious, handsome, loyal, thoughtful, supportive (according to Megan)

How they met, as told by Megan ::  Neither of us remember the exact moment we met. It was probably at some point in 6th or 7th grade. We were friends in high school and went to our junior prom together. But the real sparks flew when we both went to Dave and Busters with a few mutual friends the summer after we graduated college. He was so funny and cute, so I asked him to hang out a couple days later, and here we are!

……………………………





I’m not tryin’ to brag but… when I was much younger and thinner I too was often told I resembled Reese Witherspoon.;)It helped of course that the movie Election came out my senior year of high school and I was heavily involved in student council. I mean, let’s be honest… that movie was a loose representation of my entire senior year.;)I mean… I’m just sayin’.;)Mr. Flexxxxxible!
I’m so expressive… and quite difficult to photograph candidly because of it. I seriously look like I’m about to cut someone!:)




Much love friends!

rebekah+david

 
What was the most memorable moment of your day?

Rebekah:  Maintaining eye contact with David as I walked down the aisle. His expression of pure happiness and love kept a giant smile on my face all day long! The speeches (from my Dad, Brother-in-law and Sister) were also epic- equal parts embarrassing and sentimental.

David: Standing outside the church immediately after we got married. It was a relief to have finished the ceremony and be able to finally look at Rebekah as my wife.


 Any advice for future bride/grooms?

Rebekah:  Obviously hire Bobbi + Mike! If not for the beautiful, breathtaking images, for their ability to turn any situation into a laughable photo opportunity (…like Bobbi safety pinning tuxes). I swear friends, I don’t put people up to this… Rebekah, thank you…:DYou’re awesome friend! It is also very easy to feel rushed, so be sure to take the time to enjoy each aspect of the day.

David: Don’t waste time stressing.

 
Funniest memory from your wedding day?

Rebekah:  Our nephews Parker and Andrew were excited to be ring “bears” and our nephew Sawyer wanted to throw petals down the aisle. They had all been talking about it for a few weeks. Then, about 5 seconds before his moment, Sawyer had a total meltdown, which sent our niece Caroline into an equally impressive screaming fit. It really set the tone for a laid back afternoon as everyone got a good laugh in at the adorable-ness of the little ones.

David: Watching Joe and Jamie dancing at the reception. I couldn’t stop laughing. Their moves were something else- just incredible.

 
If you could do it all over, would you change anything?

Rebekah:  Everything was so absolutely wonderful! The love and support of our friends and family made the entire day just perfect! I can’t think of anything I would change…except maybe going back for seconds on the mashed potato bar:)…and the cupcakes:)

David:  No, I wouldn’t change a single thing.

 
Where did you go on your honeymoon?

Ladera in Soufrière, St. Lucia, West Indies


Notice Andrew down there? That silly birdie!;)The marriage license was being signed but we were on quite a time crunch so we set up the extended family photo while they took care of business behind us. Because they were gone, I stood in as the bride and groom placeholder.:)This image cracks me up! “BRING IT IN TIGHT!”Hot tamale husband alert! 




Much love friends!

~bobbi+mike:!:+:?:



PS. I promised to show you the original inspiration for the nose/glasses image above… meet David’s (and Annie and Steven’s) parents Barbara and David.:)I’m just so glad that David thought to to do this…:)And David, it’s quite fitting that you were given his name as you are quite the clone!





Caitlin SullivanJune 5, 2013 - 4:12 pm

OMG the photo of Andrew yawning. So good! Great job, guys!

Luanne ChamnessJune 5, 2013 - 6:30 pm

What a beautiful wedding. The women were beautiful and the men were handsome. I am so happy for you and I know Barb and Dave were looking down on it and enjoying every minute. What a great group of siblings. Enjoy a long and wonderful life together.
