We just have to take a moment to share the incredible evening at Jordyn and Allen's rehearsal dinner. It was a beautiful reminder of the love they have for each other and the love that surrounds their wonderful family. They will be celebrating their first wedding anniversary soon, and it's been so fun witnessing their love and commitment to each other.

Their rehearsal dinner was filled with laughter, tears of joy, and heartwarming stories from their loved ones. It was a testament to the strong bonds that have been formed and nurtured within this INCREDIBLE family.

If you're not having your rehearsal dinner photographed, you're missing out on some really fun photos like these!

xoxo!!!

Bob and I often find ourselves reflecting on our incredible journey, and we can't help but feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude. We've been truly blessed to have the opportunity to work with extraordinary clients. It's not just about the weddings; it's about the bonds we've forged with amazing couples and their families, as well as the fantastic team of vendors that make each event possible. In many ways, it feels like we're all part of one big, happy family on wedding days.

Skylar and Brad, you hold a special place in our hearts as one of the sweetest couples we've had the privilege of working with throughout the years. Your heartfelt emails and texts have consistently brought smiles to our faces, like this recent one...

"Hi Dawn!! I cannot believe our 1 year anniversary is in 13 days. Something that we have to hold on to and remind us of the best day of our life (especially during these scary times) is our BEAUTIFUL WEDDING FINE ART BOOK. Having you and Bob was the best decision we could have ever made. The photos we have captured all of our emotions, and we truly feel like we can relive our best day all over again!!!!

It's hard to believe that nearly a year has passed since your wedding day! What an unforgettable day it was, filled to the brim with joy, love, and happiness. Your love story has left a lasting impression on us, and we're honored to have been a part of your journey. Here's to many more years of love and cherished memories!

One year ago this week, we had the pleasure of photographing the most magical outdoor wedding at Lake Shore Country Club in Glencoe, IL, where Carrie and Ben tied the knot!

Their kindness and warmth shone through every moment of their special day, leaving a lasting impression on everyone fortunate enough to be in attendance. And it's no surprise, considering the wonderful family they come from, who filled the day with love and support.

From the beautiful backdrop of Lake Shore Country Club to the meticulous attention to detail, every aspect of the wedding was nothing short of perfection. Every flower, every smile, and every heartfelt moment came together to create a day that will be cherished forever.

What makes this story even more special is that we had the privilege of capturing the love again when we photographed Carrie's twin sister, Margie's wedding to Jordy a few months later! The bond between these two sisters and their family is truly heartwarming and a testament to the power of love. We cant wait to share their photos on their 1 year anniversary as well.

Here's to a year of love, happiness, and beautiful memories for Carrie and Ben! May their journey together continue to be filled with joy and love!

Thank you to Alison Ross Events for sharing us with this wonderful family!

oxxo!

Their incredible wedding took place at the prestigious Four Seasons Hotel in the heart of Chicago, a venue as beautiful as their love story. With its luxurious decor and breathtaking cityscape views, the Four Seasons provided an impeccable backdrop for the their special day.

Surrounded by their closest friends and family, Marissa and Jake exchanged vows filled with promises of unwavering support, and a future filled with shared dreams. The grand ballroom was filled with white hydrangeas and pink roses, soft candlelight, and touches of greenery, creating an atmosphere of romance. The reception was a symphony of heartfelt toasts, first dances, and moments of pure happiness. We hope as they reflect upon their first year as a married couple, Marissa and Jake's love continues to thrive, a testament to the profound connection they share and the beautiful journey they've embarked upon together.
