Two dates, one night

On the party bus from the wedding to the reception, the bride and groom, Sandra and Ben Johanneman, get a memorable pic snapped with some of the wedding party: Hannah Haden Kayem, Samantha Hobbs Kast, Jennifer Bollich Steeg, Casey Jo Robertson, Catherine Murawski Deist, Jeffrey Howard Chapman, Deric Michael Muller, Caitlin Fincher Zorn, Sandra Bollich Johanneman, Ben James Johanneman, Nick Cain Proffitt and Natalie Weaver Landry.

After Sandra Bollich’s date, she met a college friend for a nightcap at Local Pour back in 2013. That’s when a tall, handsome Indiana fellow, Ben Johanneman, got her number. Their wedding was held Jan. 31, 2015, at Pines Presbyterian Church. Amid the soft mauve-pink and green colors and accents of evergreens and seasonal berries at the reception at Lakeside Country Club, the couple danced first to Harry Connick Jr.’s I Could Write a Book. The dance ended with the bridesmaids holding up score cards of “10” to rate the performance. Parents Nick and Shirley Bollich, Jim and Bri Johanneman, and Ron and Sharon Singer cheered the couple on as they left for a two-week honeymoon in Argentina.
