Servello-Wiese Wedding {Byron Colby Barn-Chicago, Illinois}

I love Chicago. Would probably live there someday if given the chance, and I didnt think my mother would kill me. :) So when I got to shoot Veronica and Matt's engagement photos in Chicago, and then return to shoot their wedding I was in heaven! The wedding was Memorial Day weekend, but to everyones surprise, a cold front came through. It was COLD. And rainy- it even started raining at the end of the outdoor ceremony. And the poor bridesmaids had short dresses. But, you would never know any of that by looking at the smiles on these two faces. So much love, and such a beautiful wedding! Vero- I am SO very happy for you! Thank you guys so much for letting me share in your day.

An extra special thank you to Marcin, my second shooter for the day. You rocked and I see great things ahead for you!

Favorite Moments:
-My second shooter was a friend of my cousins who goes to Loyola University in Chicago. The brides family immediately said that he looked like Alec Baldwin. They even had him pose for pictures. Fun times!
- During the ceremony the bride and groom put a bottle of wine with letters to each other in a locked box, that they will open and read on their 5 year anniversary. So sweet and unique!
-The cake looked like a castle and said Happily Ever After. Cool enough to me, but there was a custom topper that was a knight on a horse with Vero riding behind him!
-The maid of honor gave the couple each an engraved compass to always be able to find each other. :)
-The reception was in an old barn that has been turned into a wedding venue!
-Chicago. Cool enough all by itself.
