Read MoreElegant, classic and chic are three words that sum up Margaret and Patrick’s stunning wedding celebration at the iconic Drake Hotel! Margaret looked like a vision in her beautiful and timeless gown from White Dress Bridal Boutique and Patrick’s reaction when he saw her come down the aisle had us in tears! One of our favorite features was the ice sculpture of the Chicago skyline! We are so grateful to work with such amazing couples and their families! Congrats you two and enjoy this sneak peek!

Ernest and Haley did not disappoint when after an incredibly beautiful wedding (complete with a Rolls Royce exit!), they transformed the Waldorf Astoria Chicago into a club scene we’ll never forget!

We loved every classic Chicago element of their summer wedding, from the peony bouquet to the iconic Watertower and Michigan Avenue portraits!

Read MoreA & T’s wedding at St. Spyridon Greek Orthodox Church and the Odyssey was FUN!! Alexandra looked absolutely stunning and there was so much joy and excitement from beginning (the markers of a GREAT wedding!) Best father/daughter first look? Best cake cutting? Cutest kiddos at a wedding? Best dance party (including grandma?!) THIS wedding is definitely a contender for all of the above! Happy sneak peek A & T ❤️

From the moment we first chatted with Emily about her wedding vision, we knew this was going to be a wedding to remember! Most important to Emily was candid portraits of the people who came from far and wide to witness their nuptials and we could see why! There wasn’t a dry tear in the house when Jason’s mother announced that there was a new “Mrs. Trueblood in town!” Every detail was perfectly planned and executed, including Emily’s TWO beautiful bridal looks!

Theodora and Eric travelled from New York City to Chicago to say their vows in front of their family and fiends and it was MAGICAL! Theodora had a specific vision for her wedding which included a backdrop (a la Sofia Grange style!), an incredible vintage Valentino gown and even a couture crown - she was truly a QUEEN on her wedding day! Eric and Theodora said their vows privately on a gorgeous sunny day before heading to RPM Events for cocktails with stunning views of the Chicago River. The day was perfection from start to finish and captured beautifully by Bonphotage photographer Serena.
Congrats you two!
