landlocked bride® | midwest + mountain west wedding inspiration

plan a modern wedding in the middle of the country


My Hunter wellies are seriously my favorite rainy spring-time accessory. I couldn’t live without them. (Not to mention they are way better than any snow boot I have ever owned).

I love the rainbow selection for this wedding – the bridesmaids are totally rocking those Hunters all out. And, it’s pretty awesome.

A pair of shoes with bold punches of color – my favorite kind!

A perfect partly cloudy day, set in the foothills of Boulder. A beautiful wedding with earthly accents – it does not get more perfect and simple than this.

Oh, the warm sun, Chicago skyline and Lake Michigan. I never tire of Chicago shoots on the lake – especially when the couple is adorable and the bride-to-be is wearing a pop of color.

I have returned from a refreshing and fun work trip to Mexico (if you can call that work). And, in honor of that fabulous time I had with a dear friend, I bring you today’s Tuesday Shoesday from the lenses of bobbi+mike. Two incredibly sweet, down-to-earth and just truly fun photographers, who happened to capture what I consider to be the true Tuesday Shoesday post just in time for the heat wave that has moved in.

It’s fun to see a couple choose a venue that provides a few different backdrops – and the The Ivy Room in Chicago does just that. Cheryl and Chris chose the venue because it allowed their guests to enjoy the city scape and a beautiful outdoor space.

But the unique thing about Cheryl and Chris is not the fact that they dreamt up a wonderful fun and beautiful wedding. It’s the fact that they channeled their active lifestyle, by incorporating bicycles throughout the day. And, it’s the fact that they both ran a 10-mile race together the morning of the wedding!

Can’t you just feel the warmth of the sun in these?!

P dot S. Happy Royal Wedding Day!


With a venue like the Sundance Resort, you hardly need any decoration. The backdrop truly speaks for itself. Soft details, an outdoor ceremony and an intimate reception are the elements that really make this wedding what it is.
