This was our first time photographing a wedding at the incredible
Venue Six10. It is perfect venue for gourmet dining and artful entertaining! The day began with Renee and her girls getting ready at the
Renaissance Blackstone Hotel Chicago Hotel while Kevin and his boys prepped for the big day at the
Chicago Hilton & Towers.
Renee wore a beautiful
Amsale strapless trumpet style gown made of silk razmir in diamond which has a modern flare. The back of the gown has a couture bow with a moderate train. The veil and hair piece are both from the
Toni Federici line, all purchased at
Belle Vie Bridal Couture on Oak Street, in Chicago. Renee's gorgeous cobalt blue glitter shoes are
Jimmy Choo, of course! She wore a statement necklace and simple earrings from
Left Bank Jewelers.
Renee did a first look with her dad and it was incredible, so touching! It's always wonderful to see the love parents have for their children, especially on their wedding day! After Renee and Kevin's first look they went for a walk, along with their bridal party, to
Grant Park, and then to the
Adler Planetarium and
Soldier Field where we photographed them during their
engagement session.
Working with Chrissy Magliano at
Big City Bride was a so comforting. Chrissy has such a calm presence and made the day flow effortlessly. We look forward to working with them a lot this year and feel so blessed to do so!
