RICH + ANDREA | The Pavilion at Orchard Ridge Farms Winter Wedding

You may remember Rich and Andrea from when I blogged their engagement session last winter! All these two wanted was a little snow and that’s exactly what they got! Andrea’s beautiful silver details glistened in the snow and her bouquet was perfect for the season. Together they spent their day surrounded by those who matter…

PRIYANTH + LAURA | Multicultural Wedding at Cotillion Banquets

Laura slipped away from the reception. Priyanth, thinking she must have gone to freshen up, was oh so wrong in his assumptions. The lights went dark and as they raised the house lights, there was Laura, in position on the stage in a second outfit. The sounds of Bollywood music filled the room and Laura…

GARY + ANNA | Private Estate Autumn Farmhouse Wedding

It was minutes before the start of their ceremony. Surrounded by her closest friends, Anna received words of wisdom and blessings from those she loved most. As everyone held hands and said a short prayer together, you could feel just how much love was in the room. Anna was nothing but smiles and butterflies all…

DANIEL + AMY | Dreamy I HOTEL Wedding

All the girls were in their hotel suite getting ready when an alert on Facebook went off. Amy smiled and put down her phone. “Today marks exactly 5 years from my first date with Daniel.

JOEL + RACHEL | Classic Summer Wedding at University Club

Rachel’s Maid of Honor gripped the microphone and cleared her throat. Silence fell over the room. Suddenly, a familiar tune filled the air. Rocking out to the N*SYNC song “It’s Gonna be Me”, she had changed all of the words to sing Rachel and Joel well-wishes with their new marriage. Tears welled up in Rachel’s…

ANDREW + BRITTANY | Classic Downtown Chicago Wedding

Andrew and Brittany met at a party in college, but they wouldn’t start dating until years later. After much persistence on Andrew’s part, Brittany finally gave in — and now they couldn’t be happier! The two are originally from downstate and Missouri, but that didn’t stop their families and friends from making the journey to…

JON + STACY | The Onion Pub & Brewery Spring Wedding

I first met Stacy almost 10 years ago (wow, where does time go?!) and I couldn’t have been more excited for her when I heard she got engaged. Having never met Jon, I knew he must be great if he could keep up with her free spirit and sense of adventure. Their wedding at The Onion…

EDGAR + KARINA | Fall Wedding at Fiesta Palace

Edgar and Karina are soulmates. You wouldn’t even have to know them, but one single look at the two of them together would confirm that. There were so many tears of happiness as these two tied the knot surrounded by those they love at their neighborhood church in Chicago. After sneaking away for a gorgeous bride…
