Chicago History Museum Wedding Photos :: Jackie & Steve

Posted on:
04 January 2010

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Year’s! I was out in North Carolina for Christmas and Wisconsin for New Year’s, and I am so excited to share the last two of my 2009 weddings. Jackie and Steve were married in December, with a ceremony at the completely darling Resurrection Lutheran Church in Wrigleyville, and a reception at the gorgeous Chicago History Museum. Jackie looked stunning in her Monique Lhuillier gown and the oh-so-kind wedding party looked so classic and lovely in black and white. Jackie and Steve were one of my most relaxed couples of the entire year, making for a calm, fun day of shooting. Many thanks to Ali Phillips of Engaging Events by Ali, who kept this wedding more on track than anyone I have ever seen! Ali also did a great job on the decor, adding a fun, graphic pink and damask flair to the elegant, traditional feel of the History Museum.

LOVE the black and white and pink (fuschia?) at the reception!  Good color combo in my opinion.
