What an incredible evening! Libby and James were so incredibly organized and truly two good people, in every sense of the word. They are both committed to making the world a better place and it was an honor to be a part of their day. From the sweetest vows, to the first dance, to the choreographed surprise, it was a joy. These planners got teary several times throughout the day.

Mazel tov, and to Liberty and Justus for all! ;)

Congratulations Theresa and Daniel! It was such a treat to celebrate with this sweet couple on a glorious Chicago summer day at the historic InterContinental Chicago hotel. This wedding had it all - a heartfelt ceremony in an opulent ballroom overlooking Michigan Avenue, a sweet pup flower girl that stole the show (hi, Winnie!) and a surprise cocktail hour performance by Chicago's own Shannon Rovers Irish Pipe Band! We are so happy for Theresa and Daniel and wish them a lifetime of happiness.

What do you get when you pair up two theatre and dance loving people? A fantastic performance to kick off their wedding! Seriously, these two. What wonderful people. We had such a great time getting to know Jen + Ryan, and we loved how personal every last detail of their wedding was. They had a great vision, and it went off without a hitch! It may have been cold and a little bit rainy, but their smiles lit up the room. So in love, so much fun. Congratulations, you two! Enjoy dancing through life together!

Literally two of the most perfect humans on the planet. We had such a good time with these two genuine, kind-hearted, organized people. We loved every minute of their day, from the sweetest first look, to the gorgeous ceremony, to the dance floor that was boppin’ all night. We just know these two are going to have the best lives together. They are surrounded by wonderful people, and they couldn’t be more wonderful themselves. One for the record books.

Congratulations, Courtney + Matt! We love you!

Lexy and Dylan's nuptials were the epitome of a classic Chicago winter wedding. The lovebirds said "I do" at the spectacular Chicago Athletic Association on a brisk December day. An elegant candlelit reception followed. Guests dined at beautifully appointed tables with views overlooking Millennium Park and Lake Michigan. The night culminated with jam-packed dance floor and extremely popular photo booth.
