Piper and Calvin’s classic Shedd Aquarium wedding will be one we always remember. Scheduled for March of 2021 it was our first wedding back after a very long pandemic and while they had originally planned to host 300 people, they took it totally in stride when restrictions allowed them to only host 50 people. It honestly made the day so intimate and special as they had the run of one of Chicago’s most fabulous institutions all to themselves.
Well we couldn’t really be more obsessed with this jewel-toned warehouse wedding at Rockwell on the River. This wedding, this couple, and their families. It was one of those weddings that was just simply magic. Melia + John couldn’t have been nicer clients to have, literally never fretted about Covid pushing their wedding date back, and generally were just SUCH a joy to be around. Okay, okay, it didn’t hurt that their wedding is fit for a magazine.
Just wait until you see this concert-inspired disco wedding. Well, really, Gabby + Dennis threw a concert instead of a wedding. Which is exactly our kind of party. From multiple live music acts to an entire merch table for guests to peruse to hanging disco balls, this party was so full of thought and totally on-brand for the two of them as a couple (and us!) We just loved working with them throughout the process.
Melissa and Nick’s romantic Chicago wedding at Loews Hotel was a dream. They had the perfect summer weather and a beautiful crew of friends and family to help them celebrate, what more could you ask for? Melissa and Nick were referred to us by a past AE couple, which is always the most lovely compliment. Melissa is a teach and super organized so we were thrilled to be able to come in and coordinate the day for her after all of their planning so they could relax and enjoy.
You all know by now how much we love a luxe backyard bash. Sarah and Sean were one of those couple who had planned their wedding and were about to celebrate it right when the world shut down. They rescheduled several times, only to have to reschedule again (and again.) Insert the pivot: they hired us to host this party in Sean’s dad’s backyard with all of the appendages crossed that we could be able to safely host outside in the summer. AND WE WERE!
