Hotel 71 Wedding | Part 4 | Nancy & Son Chicago Wedding

Weddings are gorgeous events.  They’re visibly beautiful with all the details and everyone looking their best.  They’re romantic because two people are vowing to commit to each other for better or for worse.  AND they are so much fun because everyone is happy and celebrating and your loved ones are near celebrating alongside you.

After months of planning, the best way to end a wedding day is with an awesome new spouse, a phenomenal bridal party, and a kick a** DJ.  Nancy and Son didn’t hold anything back when it came to the reception.  They enjoyed every minute along with all the guests.

Hotel 71 | Part 3 | Nancy & Son

Nancy and Son’s ceremony and reception took place at Hotel 71.  The view from this venue is absolutely breathtaking.  I love Chicago and to have access to such a vista was an added bonus to their nuptials.

Hotel 71 Wedding | Part 2 | Nancy and Son

My priority for a wedding is to capture all that unfolds before the bride and groom on their wedding day.  If I could clone myself, I would and there will be two of me at every event.  Since science hasn’t caught up to my needs (how inconsiderate of them!), I am left with having to hire the best associates a photographer can find to help with the tasks of the day.  In order for us to be successful in creating a comprehensive collection of photographs for our clients, we feel it’s important to have two of us there.

While I was with Nancy documenting her preparations, Otto was with the groom and his guys capturing the moments before the ceremony…

 

this is my favorite capture of the groom’s preparations.

I am so grateful for Otto, Maricel, and our team of associates who have had a hand at allowing us to be successful at capturing all of our couple’s weddings.

A very sincere thank you goes to Nancy and Son for allowing us to be there alongside them on their most special day.

Hotel 71 Wedding | Part One | Nancy and Son

Every girl needs her girls.  To share secrets with.  To dream about her wedding with.  To have fun with.  This post is dedicated to a bride and her girls, Toni, Tram, Tammy, Angela, and Erica.  It was nice to see Nancy’s bridesmaids make a fuss over her, as every bride should be. There wasn’t a moment when Nancy was without a single one of them.

Patricia & Gaston | Chicago Wedding

Coincidence.  It’s a fun word.  I prefer SERENDIPITY: ORIGIN 1754: coined by Horace Walpole, suggested by The Three Princes of Serendip, the title of a fairy tale in which the heroes “were always making discoveries, by accidents and sagacity, of things they were not in quest of.”  Making discoveries…of things we’re not in quest of.  How is it that we find the loves in our lives?  Serendipity.  How wonderful is it when we meet someone only to realize through conversation, that we have so much in common?  I love to make connections with people by the commonalities in our lives.  It makes for a much easier conversation.

Paty and Gaston’s wedding was full of relationships that have formed via serendipity.  They were surrounded by love and loved ones.  There was a point in the evening when I felt that you could take a slice of the air and taste nothing but sweet love.  Everyone was happy to see each other, happy for their reason to be there, happy to have been asked to share in their celebrations.

Paty & Gaston, thank you for allowing me into your family.  Thank you for trusting me with documenting your love and the love shared within your families.
