backyard ceremony + reception at cog hill golf and country club

Abby + Keith’s Memorial Day weekend wedding kicked off summer in all the right ways. Their backyard ceremony and reception at Cog Hill Golf and Country Club were total blue skies ahead. Truly the most beautiful day and a perfectly intimate ceremony at Abby’s childhood home. (Which you know by now how much we love a backyard ceremony!)

So, we thought we’d take a minute to try to explain exactly what it is we do. (And point out some things that we do that others don’t!)

intimate backyard wedding in logan square

Keith + Daryl’s fall backyard wedding was everything an Anticipation Events wedding should be. It was full of happy people celebrating their years of love behind them and to come. It was low-key and casual in the best possible way. And, of course, it had little unexpected details that made it the epitome of an AE wedding.
