A Classic Downtown Indianapolis Wedding

Emily + Harrison

Emily and Harrison’s September 6th wedding day was nothing short of timeless — filled with sunshine, joy, and the kind of heartfelt moments that remind you what love really looks like.

The day began at the Sheraton Hotel in downtown Indianapolis, where the bridal party got ready surrounded by laughter, excitement, and the buzz of the city below. Emily’s classic bridal look perfectly matched the elegant tone of the day, while Harrison and his groomsmen brought a touch of sophistication and calm before the celebration began.

Their ceremony took place at St. Monica Catholic Church, a beautiful and peaceful setting for their sacred “I do.” The church glowed with afternoon light as family and friends gathered to witness their vows. After a sweet and sentimental mass, the couple exited through a cheerful ribbon send-off, surrounded by smiles and applause — the perfect start to their married life!

From there, the wedding party made their way downtown for portraits at the Indiana War Memorial and in front of the Scottish Rite Cathedral. The city was the perfect backdrop — bright skies, classic architecture, and that golden late-summer light that photographers dream of.

As the evening began, guests were welcomed into the Scottish Rite Cathedral for an unforgettable reception. Tables were adorned with lush greenery, glowing LED candles, and elegant neutral tones, creating a warm and romantic atmosphere. From the emotional toasts to the couple’s stunning first dances, every moment felt like a celebration of love and family.

Once the dance floor opened, the night came alive. Guests danced under the grand ceilings of the cathedral, fueled by laughter, joy — and of course, pretzel bites for a late-night snack! Emily and Harrison ended the evening with the perfect send-off, surrounded by their closest friends and family — a joyful finale to a perfect Indianapolis wedding day.

Congratulations, Emily and Harrison! Your day was such a beautiful reflection of your love — classic, genuine, and filled with light from start to finish.
