Greg + CJ at Indiana State Museum

Published On: March 30, 2016Categories: Indiana State Museum, Wedding

Just like their photographer, Crystal Keyes said, “All you need is love… and a little Vera!” Greg and CJ had an absolutely stunning Indiana State Museum wedding and these men were dressed in their best with a little help from Vera Wang. Donning grey suits and Converse All-Star sneakers, their grey and purple color scheme fit in very well with the natural structures and décor of the museum – as if they were made for one another.

Every detail was meticulously planned from their bow ties to the table linen and the floral on their wedding cake. No element was spared, creating a picture-perfect event to remember for years to come. The day began at a local hotel where the grooms and their bridal party readied themselves before arriving at the Indiana State Museum for the ceremony.

Greg and CJ were married on Ball Family Terrace. Their celebration of marriage was truly a celebration of two families becoming one together. They exchanged vows against a backdrop of a small pergola adorned in purple floral. After their first kiss as husbands, guests ascended the stairs to the Upper Café Terrace for cocktail hour while the newlyweds and their bridal party took time for photos along the canal.
