There is so much for me to say about this wedding. I really don’t know where to start! First off, Alisha and Dean are the perfect couple and this wedding has been a long time coming. They have been together for ten years and have so much history together. So it’s only fitting that all the little details of the day be a perfect reflection of their relationship. Right down to the table signage with each table named after a meaningful place to them both.

Alisha got ready at the Trump Tower with it’s amazing panoramic views of the city as her backdrop. The River Walk was the location for the emotional first glance. And the ceremony and reception were held at the Ravenswood Event Center which is one of the city’s most amazing new event spaces. It’s definitely one of the most unique venues I’ve ever shot in with wall to wall antique cars lining the entire reception.

The guests were delighted with a Sushi bar at the cocktail hour along with the couple’s own signature drink. Alisha and Dean also rehearsed a fun dance number that would have made you thought they’d been dancing all their lives! And Lori from LOLA Events did an amazing job bringing it all together with beautiful and vibrant floral arrangements from Kehoe and show stopping performances by Arlen Music Consultants.

We were so thrilled to get to document their magnificent wedding!
