AELO Alumni | Jeanne + Dan, 6/4/16

VENUE: THE REVIVAL THEATER | CATERING: THE NILE | PHOTOGRAPHER: JPP STUDIOS | PHOTOGBOOTH + DJ: AWESOME DJS | BAKERY: SUGAR LOAF

A comedy club was the perfect setting for this Chicago teacher and Chicago cop to get married.  Not only do these two love to make each other laugh, Jeanne, the bride, is a comedian as well.  This fun, easy going couple actually knew each other as kids and reconnected later as adults.  This wedding had a relaxed atmosphere filled with laughter, dancing, and great food. Congratulations Jeanne and Dan!

We have the best clients ever. Planning with Alli and Woz back in 2013 was so much fun! They were laid back, hilarious, sweet and just wonderful people all around. Making their vision come alive was a blast! The details were fantastic, and Alli’s beautiful dress was definitely a high point. The Chicago Cultural Center was the perfect background for Pollen’s romantic, free-flowing florals, and the beautiful couple had a blast dancing, smoking cigars, and laughing together. We love, love, love looking back at this one.
