Liz + Chris’s Real Chicago Wedding : Cafe Brauer : 6.20.10

Ceremony + Reception: Cafe Brauer, Chicago
Floral Design: Scarlet Petal
DJ: Toast & Jam
Photographers: Gina DeConti + Amy Beth Harkess

You may remember Liz and Chris from their super cute Engagement Session that we did at Architectural Artifacts. We were so excited to design them a custom guest book that perfectly showcased their favorite pictures from the session for all their guests to enjoy at their reception.

And their wedding certainly did not disappoint. Just look at how adorable the two of them are. I think their sweetness just shines right through in these photographs.

Be sure to check out Liz's incredible electric blue shoes! Talk about something blue. Her vintage style dress also really lent itself to her super chic look. 

The ceremony was so lovely out on the Promenade at Lincoln Park Zoo. And you just can beat the natural beauty of Cafe Brauer with all it's natural light and vaulted ceilings. 

Scarlet Petal did an amazing job with all the floral decor (as always). And Toast and Jam kept the party bumping with the couple's eclectic musical tastes. 

All around a perfect event! Here are just a few of my favorites:

Leigh + Tom’s Real Chicago Wedding : Cuneo Museum : 6.19.10

Ceremony: Faith Hope and Charity Parish, Winnetka
Reception: Cuneo Gardens, Vernon Hills
Event Coordination: Robyn Bruns/Red Letter Event Planning
Photographers: Gina DeConti, Amy Beth Harkess, and Karen Wade

 

What a beautiful wedding coupled with the most beautiful day! It was such a pleasure to photograph Leigh and Tom's gorgeous event. I loved how sweet and shy Leigh is. Tom perfectly compliments her and they absolutely make the most adorable couple. I just loved her elaborate dress and her beautiful antique style ring!

Take a peek at all the details at the Reception. I'm pretty sure that the place cards are the coolest things I've ever seen. I also found black and white vintage patterned uplighting to be so lovely against the walls of the white tent. I also have never attended a cocktail hour that employed a cigar roller before. How neat is that?!

Here is just a sampling of my favorite shots below:
