Molly & Mark's Racquet Club Wedding




















This stunning couple hail from DC, but decided to have an intimate wedding right here in Chicago. Molly and Mark have been together for many years, and their families know each other very well, which brought an ease to the day that was very unique. The day was seamlessly brought together by Anne Book, who made sure that every moment and detail was perfect. We started the day at the Waldorf Astoria. After an emotional first meeting and a few romantic pictures, it was off to the Racquet Club to see the family. The ceremony was held at a G+S favorite, Old St Pat's. Father Fenske, a family friend, preformed the rites of marriage. Back at the Racquet Club, the dining room had been transformed thanks to the talented team at Hello Darling. From custom velvet runners, to speciality Scandinavian cocktails and personal menu cards, it was a classic supper party that no one will ever forget. Paul Zimmerman and his Z Orchestra brought the tunes and kept the night moving. Thanks to Juli and Tina for making sure all the ladies looked magnificent. Warmest wishes and cheers to Mark and Molly!

Nick & Darcey's Salvage One Wedding



































It's finally here!  We know all our readers have read about Nick and Darcey's wedding... Now we have photos to show for it!  Nick, one of our photographers, proposed to wedding planner Darcey in Paris almost two years ago.  This past November, they tied the knot and had all the best wedding vendors to help bring their vision to life.  Darcey and her bridesmaids got ready at the Palomar Hotel where Juli Valdez did make-up and Nicci Locciane did hair.  Once the girls were prepped, they made their way to Salvage One for the ceremony and reception.  Darcey and Nick saw each other for the first time on the roof and then had a laughter-filled ceremony with tons of personal touches.  Their reception looked beautiful with flowers from A Stem Above coupled with lots of DIY projects throughout.  Blue Plate served the best wedding food ever and DJ Roberto Monastero had people on the dance floor until they were forced out!
