Lexy and Dylan's nuptials were the epitome of a classic Chicago winter wedding. The lovebirds said "I do" at the spectacular Chicago Athletic Association on a brisk December day. An elegant candlelit reception followed. Guests dined at beautifully appointed tables with views overlooking Millennium Park and Lake Michigan. The night culminated with jam-packed dance floor and extremely popular photo booth.

Congratulations to these lovebirds! Meghan and Nigel had the most beautiful weather for their rooftop wedding at Lacuna Lofts. The Chicago skyline provided a stunning backdrop for their ceremony and added the perfect touch to their elegant Chicago-themed wedding. We couldn't be happier for Meghan and Nigel and we wish them (and their sweet pup Lyla!) a lifetime of happiness.

What a perfect day. Steve and Catherine got the most beautiful weather for their wedding! It was 72 and sunny and they took advantage of it with Ignite’s gorgeous rooftop and courtyard. These two sweeties had a lovely ceremony at St. Clement’s and then danced the night away! Their families and friends are wonderful people—just like them. What a joy it was to celebrate with these two.

Congratulations, kids! We wish you the happiest life together!

When the couple says “we’re doing all showtunes through cocktail hour”, we know we’re in for a good time. Amanda + Michael got pandemic-married, and finally got to celebrate with all of their wonderful people at Trigger Chicago on an absolutely stunning day in October.

From their book and book flower centerpieces to Michael and his frat brothers serenading Amanda, to the packed dance floor, the day was perfect. We were so happy to celebrate with two people who so clearly respect and admire each other, and know how to have a great time. Congratulations, Amanda + Michael!
