D A N + J A M I E

This day was something out of a fairytale! What a gorgeous Chicago day in the midst of storms all week. I absolutely adore these two and the way they love each other. Dan lights up every room she enters and Jamie just adores her in every way. The way these two look at each other and talk about each other with such respect and admiration for each other is so beautiful!

Their ceremony was at the stunning St. Clement Catholic Church in Lincoln Park, followed by a beautiful reception at the one and only Salvatore's. Pinky events kept everything running smoothly and on time!

One of my favorite parts of the day was Dan and Jamie walking to their ceremony together in Lincoln Park completely present with each other and just enjoying the beautiful weather. Moments like that can be so rare in the middle of a busy wedding day and they made the most of their time together in a beautiful way. Their party after the ceremony was incredible, hosted by DJ Ryan who did an outstanding job! This dance floor was on fire all night long. The sparkler exit at the end of the night was the cherry on top to a perfect Chicago wedding that felt intimate yet sophisticated.

So very happy for these two! Congratulations Dan and Jamie!

R I L E Y + T A Y D E N

This was such a special wedding and one I won't forget! I am lucky enough to be friends with the bride's incredible mama which made this one extra special! Riley and Tayden met in elementary school and have been together what seems like forever. Some couples you just know were made for each other, and that's these two. The way Tayden melted when he saw Riley for their first look was one of the best first look reactions I have seen. Their vows to each other were so beautiful and had everyone in tears. I loved seeing the relationships between Riley and her parents and sisters and the tender way they love each other and are always down for a good time! It was also so sweet seeing how Tayden's family loves him and seeing their close relationships like when Tayden got a gift from his mom in memory of his grandma. There was everything from an amazing officiant, to beautiful sweet flower girls and beautiful details that were simple but elegant. The groom's nieces were even down to be ring security and they dressed up and played the part perfectly! Felix and Fingers Dueling Pianos had everyone laughing and dancing late into the night. Overall, an incredible wedding for two amazing people.

Congratulations Riley + Tayden!!

It was a celebration for Cassie and Jonny at the incredible Eagle Ridge Resort & Spa, a perfect setting for these nature lovers! I will always remember Jonny's reaction when he saw Cassie for the first time. They are such a sweet couple and balance each other so perfectly. Cassie's girls around her were a tribe of such sweet, strong women and Jonny's guys were all about celebrating the couple and having so much fun! This was an amazing group of friends and family and of course their sweet puppies!

Congratulations Cassie + Jonny!

It was a stunning day at Oak hill Farm in Apple River for Elaina and Michael! I loved hearing about how Elaina and Michael found each other. My favorite part of the day, other than when Michael saw Elaina walking down the aisle, was the toasts from the bride's younger sister and groom's brother. They were absolutely beautiful tributes and had everyone in tears!

Congratulations Elaina and Michael!

K A T I E + M I K E

Another beautiful Eagle Ridge wedding for Katie and Mike this past weekend. I loved getting to work with this couple and had such a fun time getting to know their family, their awesome dog and amazing friends! Their florals were absolutely STUNNING and every detail made the wedding so elegant and effortless. Katie dedicated her dance that was to be with her father, to her mom in a touching and beautiful tribute. I loved seeing Mike's mom smooth down his hair right before he walked down the aisle! Too many sweet moments to count at this one!

Congratulations Katie and Mike!

This was such a special wedding day and one I will always remember. Courtney, Jared and I had so much fun together at their engagement session, I just knew their wedding was going to be so much fun and memorable. I loved getting to work with all their family and friends who made the day extra special for the two of them. Courtney paid special tributes to her brother who tragically passed away before the wedding day. We know he was watching and celebrating with her and her family and friends. You can tell these two have been a strength and support for each other through so much and that they will go the distance. I love seeing the tender way Jared looks at Courtney and the way that he makes her laugh. I'm so so happy they found each other! Congratulations to Courtney and Jared!
