If you’re engaged and planning a wedding, stop scrolling for a second and mark this down now! On Sunday, July 19, 2026, Indy Wedding Collective is bringing an unforgettable wedding experience to Old Town Greenwood… and this is **not** your typical bridal show. This is a one-day, multi-venue wedding experience where you’ll get to explore THREE amazing venues in one afternoon including Grafton Peek Social Hall, Folktale Weddings & Events and Vue on Main Events Center. Instead of walking endless rows of booths, you’ll step inside real wedding spaces, meet talented local pros, see styled inspiration, and start picturing what your own day could actually feel like. Whether you just got engaged or you’re finalizing details, this is the event that helps everything start clicking into place.
Indy Wedding Collective was created from a simple belief: couples deserve a wedding experience that feels personal, organized and connected - without having to piece every part together alone.
Founding partners Bretta Thompson of Weddings by Bretta, LLC and Charrie Stambaugh of Photog Boss, LLC have each spent years serving couples across Central Indiana.
Together, Bretta and Charrie created Indy Wedding Collective to make wedding planning feel less scattered and more supported. After years of working separately and alongside many of the same trusted professionals, they saw how much easier the process could be when couples had an experienced team that already knew how to collaborate.
IWEC brings photography, officiating, coordination and planning support under one connected umbrella, with bundled options designed to save time, reduce stress and create a smoother experience from the first conversation to the final send-off.
Indy Wedding Collective serves couples planning full wedding days, micro weddings and elopements. Through its relationships with vetted Central Indiana vendors and venues, couples may also receive bundled discounts, added perks or simplified access to other trusted wedding professionals. The goal is not to make every wedding look the same. It is to help each couple build a day that feels intentional, beautiful and financially realistic.
Beyond individual weddings, Indy Wedding Collective, LLC is expanding into local wedding experiences, vendor collaboration and venue support. The collective hosts bridal events, including the Old Town Greenwood "I Do Tour," and offers wedding and event venue management, consultation and marketing support for venues that want stronger systems and a better client experience.
IWEC also connects couples to helpful local resources, including the bridal getting-ready suite at Photog Boss, LLC at 516 N. Madison Ave. in Greenwood.
At its heart, Indy Wedding Collective is about trust, experience and community. Couples are never just another booking. Their story matters, their budget matters and their day deserves a team that knows how to protect the details while celebrating the reason everyone gathered in the first place.

In 2012, Weddings by Bretta, LLC opened in Indianapolis (also known as Just the Two of Us Wedding Services). Since then, I’ve had the honor of working with over 8,500 couples, guiding them through wedding days of every size, style, and vision.
My background spans years as an Indianapolis Wedding Officiant, a Certified Wedding & Event Planner/Coordinator, and a trusted advocate for couples navigating one of the biggest days of their lives. That experience has taught me how to anticipate needs before they arise, manage timelines with confidence, and ensure each ceremony is treated with the same level of care—whether it’s an intimate elopement or a large-scale celebration.
At the heart of my work is a commitment to helping couples create a wedding day that feels intentional, meaningful, and financially realistic. I believe in transparency, thoughtful planning, and never pushing services that don’t serve you. My background in materials management, planning, and procurement gives me a unique perspective when it comes to budgeting—helping couples make informed decisions and truly stick to them.
As a founding partner of Indy Wedding Collective, I collaborate closely with experienced, vetted professionals who share the same values of integrity, professionalism, and care. Together, we offer couples a seamless, full-service experience—bringing ceremony, coordination, photography, and trusted vendor partnerships under one thoughtfully aligned team.
Above all, weddings are not just my profession—they are my passion. You’re never “just another booking” here. Every couple, every story, and every ceremony matters. It’s an honor to stand beside you on your wedding day and help you tell your love story in a way that feels authentic, beautiful, and truly yours.

Hi, I’m Charrie — lead wedding photographer for Photog Boss, LLC and a founding partner of Indy Wedding Collective.
I’ve been photographing weddings for over a decade, with a deep focus on storytelling, connection, and creating images that feel just as meaningful years from now as they do on your wedding day. My background outside of photography includes advanced education, leadership, and high-pressure professional environments — which means I bring a calm, steady presence, strong organization, and reliability to even the most complex wedding days.
My wedding photography style blends candid storytelling with timeless portraiture. I document your day as it naturally unfolds — the real emotions, quiet in-between moments, and meaningful details — while also guiding you through portraits that feel confident, natural, and effortless. I believe the best images come from trust, comfort, and a relaxed experience, not stiff posing or forced moments.
The result is a complete, cohesive gallery that tells the full story of your wedding day — not just a handful of highlight images, but the moments you didn’t even realize were happening.
As part of Indy Wedding Collective, I work closely with experienced, vetted wedding professionals to ensure your day is not only beautifully documented, but thoughtfully and smoothly executed. From timeline awareness to seamless collaboration with planners, officiants, and vendors, my role is to support the bigger picture while preserving the moments that matter most to you.
Outside of photography, I’m fueled by my blended family, endless creativity, and a lot of coffee. If you’re looking for a photographer who brings experience, professionalism, heart, and consistency to your wedding day — you’re in the right place.
