Alexa Hilal & Rob Calabro - September 20, 2008

Alexa Hilal and Rob Calabro were married on September 20, 2008, a beautiful, and unseasonably warm fall day. I love the light in this photo, soft and magical. The ceremony setting was The Church of Loretto, on the Campus of Saint Mary's College, the bride's alma mater. The tented reception was held on the lawn at Tippicanoe Place, with the fabulous mansion serving as a drop back.


Notice Alexa's blue shoes! Her something blue!


The groom is a huge boxing fan, so each table was named after a famed boxer. The one featured below was on the head table, appropriately named, Muhammad Ali, the greatest boxer of all time! On the reverse of each menu card was poem by Omar Khayyam; Drink wine, it is what remains of the harvest of youth - the season of roses and wine and drunken friends. Be happy for a moment, that moment is your life.


I now pronounce you.......

Alexa and Rob listening to their toasts - notice Alexa's necklace, this was the first gift her Grandfather gave to her Grandmother when they were dating.

I think this photo is pretty self explanatory! The band, 'The Business' was just fabulous and kept everyone dancing 'til the wee hours! Photos are courtesy of Todd Pellowe Weddings - thanks Todd!
