Kate & Matt's St Patrick's and Exmoor Country Club Wedding




















Kate and Matt had a picture perfect fall day! We met up with Kate at her parent's house in Lake Forest. Then it was off to church, just a few minutes away. After the ceremony, we headed to downtown Lake Forest for a few pictures. Our 1st stop was the bookstore where Kate's mom works. They were nice enough to let us take a few pictures between the stacks! Then it was off to Exmoor Country Club for an amazing evening filled with a ton of laughs and a few tears. It was a fabulous team of vendors who helped make this wedding one heck of a memorable night!  Melissa Phillips, of Simply Perfect by Melissa made everything come together smoothly. The talented musicians in Maggie Speaks kept the dance floor moving all night! And Keith, from Poetic Productions kept everybody laughing. Congrats to Kate and Matt! Thanks for letting us be a part of your day!

Sam & James' Halloween Wedding

Over Halloween weekend we got the opportunity to work with Sam and James on their amazing halloween wedding. They really embraced the theme with skulls and skeletons on everything from bouquets and boutonnieres to their card table and even a skull ice sculpture martini luge. The decor matched their personalities perfectly and it was an absolute BLAST shooting their wedding! Check out their slideshow and some of our favorite pictures below!

The Runaway Bride & Groom - Megan and Robert

There were so many fantastic elements to this wedding, that it is hard to explain how amazing Megan and Robert's wedding was. The bride got ready at the Four Seasons, before meeting her Groom at Seneca Playlot Park. 





The couple wanted a combination of classic Chicago and urban git pictures, so we went to LaSalle Street, Kinzie Street, Humboldt Park and Logan Square. The Ravenswood Event Center was a perfect location for their ceremony and reception.  








Megan and Rob will forever go down as the "Runaway Bride and Groom", because immediately following their ceremony the couple ran to Irving Park and hopped on a bus. They didn't go far, since the party had already started, and they didn't want to miss a thing. Guests were treated to three different home-made beers, and delicious food stations.



We have shot several weddings from Megan's group of friends from St. Ignatius, so we knew the party was going to be a blast.
