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!

Erin & Masato Historic Rookery Wedding
We still can't get over how stunning with wedding is! Erin and Masato got ready at the JW Marriott. Which, by the way has gorgeous bathrooms. From there we went to a few of our favorite spots downtown for pictures. Then it was off to the Rookery for the wedding! The Rookery Building is arguably the prettiest building in Chicago, perfect for a intimate wedding in the heart of downtown. Both ceremony and reception were held in the great hall. Transformers 4; which has been filming in Chicago this summer and fall, had a set right outside the Rookery. So we took advantage of the scene and made a few pictures. At the end of the evening, Erin and Masato exited the reception through a tunnel of sparklers! Congrats guys!

Shannon & Brad's Publican Wedding
Shannon & Brad had such an intimate neighborhood wedding. The couple originally wanted to elope, but instead of being on their families' "naughty list" for the rest of their lives, decided to host a personal soiree in their stomping grounds of the West Loop. The couple tied the knot at Old St. Pat's and then walked over to Publican for their reception. A family friend decorated the restaurant with flowers and Toast and Jam kept people dancing all night. The food was fabulous; a perfect counterpart to such an awesome couple!
