We're so excited to share this wedding today! This is what every winter Chicago wedding should look like. Katie and Len started their wedding day at the Wit Hotel in the heart of the loop. We met up with them there just as the snow started to fall. Jack, from Leap Weddings was also there to capture everything on video. After an intimate 1st look at the top of the hotel, we hit the town. Bridal party and couple braved the cold for some classic Chicago pictures. As the light faded we headed up to Cafe Brauer for the ceremony and reception. There wasn't a dry eye in the house during the intimate candle lit ceremony. As everybody enjoyed cocktails, planner Shannon Gail and the talented team from Stems transformed the Great Hall. After a lovely dinner provided by Blue Plate Catering, there were a few surprises! Len surprised Katie with a birthday cake (it was her 30th!) and everybody serenaded her with Happy Birthday! But the biggest surprise of all was Tommy the Hawk appearance at the start of dancing a gift to the couple from Shannon and Len's sister, Teresa! He got everyone out of their seats and dancing! Toast and Jam kept the party going way into the night. It was truly a night to remember. Congrats to Katie and Len! Thanks for letting us be part of your amazing wedding day!

Katie & Chris' Cafe Brauer Wedding
Katie & Chris tied the knot on a chilly autumn day. We started by photographing the bride and groom while getting ready for their ceremony at St. Alphonsus Church. After the ceremony, we hoped in a party bus and did photos around town. We were even able to stop at the exact spot Chris proposes; along a wooded path in Lincoln Park. Then, their reception began at Cafe Brauer.

Hilary & Nathan's Lincoln Park Wedding
You may remember Hilary and Nathan from their winter engagement session. After months of anticipation, the adorable couple finally tied the not in Lincoln Park. Hilary and Nathan said their "I dos" at St. Clement. Following the ceremony we toted around the neighborhood, before ending at Cafe Brauer. Hilary's family is no stranger to the studio (we photographed her brother's wedding last year), so we knew the party was going to be exciting and crazy. Check out the slideshow to see more of this charming couple!
