Ashley & Paul's Chicago History Museum Wedding

Ashley and Paul tied the knot at one of our all time favorite venues: The Chicago History Museum. After getting ready at the Public Hotel, Ashley and Paul saw each other for the first time in front of the historic Greystones of the Gold Coast before it was off for photos! Ashley wanted to carry the theme of the 1893 Worlds Fair through the whole wedding, so we kept our eyes peeled for opportunities and found a couple awesome ones - see if you can spot them in this post! After a touching ceremony it was time to party and party everyone did thanks to tasty treats and drinks from Blue Plate and awesome music thanks to Max from StyleMatters. Take a look at some of our favorites! 

Natalia & Michael's Rookery Wedding

What a gorgeous spring wedding!  These two lovelies got married on one of the most beautiful days in April so far.  Both of them attended the University of Dayton, but met when they were brought together by the power of Facebook... Michael stalked her (hey, it happens!).  They got ready at the Palmer House Hilton and then had their ceremony at Assumption.  After making it official, we did photos at some iconic Chicago spots like the river, Michigan Avenue, and the Chicago Theater.  Their reception at the Rookery looked amazing with Vale of Enna Flowers' designs, went off smoothly with day-of planning by Dara of Simply Perfect Events by Dara, and Blue Plate's catering was amazing (as always).  Guests, including Natalia's family from Chile, partied all night long with the happy couple!  

Lauren & Griffin's New Years Eve Bash

New Years weddings are always a blast, but even more so when the couple is as awesome and fun as Lauren & Griffin! They brought their Austin vibe and fun friends up with a bunch of hand crafted, DIY touches to make their wedding super cool! Every detail was expertly handled by Darcey at Big City Bride. Add in some great food from Blue Plate and some kickin tunes from Roberto Monastero and you've got yourself a premier New Years Eve party! Check our some of their pictures!
