On July 19th, 2025, Sydney and Matthew celebrated their wedding day surrounded by love, laughter, and unforgettable memories at St. Ambrose University in Davenport, Iowa. Their ceremony took place in the timeless Christ the King Chapel, followed by a reception at the beautiful Rogalski Center, both located on campus.
From the morning excitement of getting ready to the joy of the evening dances, their wedding day reflected the perfect blend of elegance and fun. Sydney looked radiant in her long-sleeved lace gown with a dramatic train, while Matthew’s sharp blue suit added a vibrant touch to the day. Their portraits beneath the chapel’s arches and across campus beautifully captured the spirit of their love story.
The wedding party brought unmatched energy—from heartfelt moments during the ceremony to playful laughter on the party bus and beyond. Guests were treated to heartfelt vows, emotional first dances, and an evening of joyful celebration, all framed by the gorgeous backdrop of St. Ambrose’s campus.
A Heartfelt Thank You
This wedding holds an especially meaningful place in our hearts. Our main photographer was unexpectedly hospitalized and unable to capture Sydney and Matthew’s big day. We are beyond grateful to Shawna Johnson of Shawna Faith Photography and Kaitlyn Daniels, who both stepped in with incredible generosity and talent. Thanks to them, every moment of this wonderful couple’s wedding was beautifully documented and preserved.
Sydney and Matthew, your wedding was an absolute honor to be a part of. Thank you for your grace, kindness, and trust. We wish you a lifetime of love, joy, and laughter as you begin this next chapter together.
