Kelsey + Michael: Joyful, Colorful, Fall Wedding

Kelsey + Michael are the type of couple you just want the best for - they are kind and a whole lot of fun, and bringing their wedding vision to life felt effortless. They got married on a foggy October afternoon at The Arbory and they leaned into bold fall colors with lush floral by Romee Willow Florals, some chic tabletop rentals and Michael’s custom plum suit by 9Tailors paired with a floral tie (!). 

They had a relatively small wedding of 60 of their closest friends and family, but I remember distinctly that they were the most FUN group I’ve ever seen - the dance floor was chock full of energy (it helps that Michael and his sister are former dancers!) until the very last second. What a night.

Happy first anniversary to Kelsey + Michael!  xo Olivia

Pria + Chris: Cheerful, Sunny, Lakefront Chicago Wedding

If there was ever a true testament to true love it is Pria and Chris. Pria + Chris are not only high school sweethearts but middle school sweethearts as well. They started dating in the 7th grade and have been together for more than half of their lives. After graduating from Walter Payton Prep in the city, Pria headed to UCLA and Chris went to Vanderbilt. After college, Chris went into the Marines and Pria stayed in California to get her PhD. The two wed on a perfect crisp October day full of sunshine and blue skies.

Cheers to Pria + Chris! -Kirsten

Shanna + Andrew: Lush, Stylish, Elegant Field Museum Wedding

Shanna + Andrew have a lightness and laughter in their relationship that is just infectious. It was such an honor to plan their wedding alongside them – can’t believe it’s been a year!  They had big dreams when it came to their wedding, and Chicago’s Field Museum was the perfect backdrop for their elegant evening. We worked together for the better part of the year bringing their gorgeous white, green, and blue vision to life, thanks to the brilliant Kehoe Designs. The result was a lush, grand, yet inviting summer Chicago day for these lovebirds. You have to see the incredible ceremony site and dinner in the Field Museum is pure magic!!  Huge thank you to Tim Tab for capturing their day so beautifully. 

Happy first anniversary to Shanna + Andrew!  xo Olivia
