A Simple Museum Wedding at Wonderlab in Bloomington, Indiana

Brooke Rasche (26 and a children's librarian) and Aron Newberry (31 and a USDA food inspector) met while working at a restaurant while attending Indiana University. When a group of people from work went out on Valentine's Day, the two started talking and a few months later realized they had feelings for each other. After graduation, Aron followed Brooke to Virginia when she received a job offer. Aron proposed to Brooke at an outdoor event called "Festival of Lights" in La Crosse, Wisconsin. With over 3,000,000 lights around them, Aron had arranged for a carriage ride through the lights and proposed to her, even though it was -30 outside. Since they knew their guests would have a wonderful time, Brooke and Aron decided to have their wedding at the museum Wonderlab in Bloomington, Indiana. They stuck with a simple color palette, choosing royal blue for the bridesmaid dresses and pocket squares for the groomsmen accented with the sunflower bouquets and boutonnieres. Because of the amazing attractions inside the museum, Brooke and Aron kept the reception minimal, just having their first dance as well as the parent dances. Their guests loved exploring the museum, especially when they got to snack on deliciously moist cupcakes by Underground Cupcakes. The day after their wedding, they took all of their closest friends who stayed at the hotel out on a pontoon to continue the wedding celebration. "It was such a wonderful way to end our time with friends and family, and it gave us the opportunity to really sit down and relax with everyone," says Brooke.
