intimate wedding at the cuneo mansion & gardens

Izabel + Ben’s wedding at the Cuneo Mansion and Gardens was the most perfectly beautiful day. During the planning process with these two, they moved from the east coast to Denver all while planning a wedding in Chicagoland. Izabel has also written one of our favorite reviews about our services to date, it is titled “I would have died” and the first line reads: “I would have died without Elizabeth. I have to admit that planning a wedding was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had in my life BUT because of Elizabeth, I made it through and honestly had THEE most perfect day.” We love the honesty. Wedding planning isn’t fun for everyone and we just hope that at the end of it, you feel like it was worth it!

Begin at the beginning…

To start the day, Izabel + Ben got ready with their crews and exchanged some love notes. Hair, make-up, and a beautiful dress and Izabel was ready for the first look with her groom!

Stained glass chapel dreams

In Evanston, they took a few first-look photos and had their ceremony at the Alice Millar Chapel on Northwestern University’s campus. We were SO jazzed they chose this spot, it’s absolutely one of our favorite places locally to work—the stained glass is incredible and the most stunning backdrop.

Party time, excellent

Next, they were off to celebrate the rest of their wedding day at the Cuneo Mansion and Gardens. The weather was absolutely perfect for cocktails in the garden and dancing all night long.
