REAL WEDDINGS, REAL TALK
Flashback Friday | Julia + Andy 12/6/10
VENUE: PRAIRIE PRODUCTION | PHOTOGRAPHY: MICHAEL LITCHFIELD | CATERING: VINCI | FLORIST: ALEXANDRA JUSINO, EXQUISITE DESIGNS
Flashback to our last wedding of 2010, a unique and beautiful expression of two people very much in love with each other, and it doesn’t get much better than that for us. Julia + Andy were married on December 4th, 2010 at Prairie Production. The venue looked gorgeous, the band was rockin’ and the guests had more energy than they knew what to do with - it was a great time!
AELO Alumni | Kip + Steve 10/4/14
VENUE: LAKEVIEW CENTER @ GILLSON PARK | PHOTOGRAPHER: SARAH SEVERSON | CATERER: THE LITTLE MEXICAN CAFE | FLORIST: THE GROOM'S SISTER! | DJ: DUSTIN - STYLE MATTERS | SLOMO BOOTH: A LITTLE SCENE | A CAPPELLA SINGERS: XFACTORS
We had a ridiculously great time with Kip & Steve! They are the sweetest, have a gorgeous little family, AND they had the incredible XFactors A Cappella group from Northwestern sing them down the aisle! It was absolutely gorgeous and so sweet, the slow motion booth was a huge hit with the kids, and they danced the night away with Dustin from Style Matters playing all their favorite tunes.
Kip & Steve, it was an honor to get to know your family and friends! We hope the future is full of the love and laughter you felt on your wedding day!
AELO Events | Book Launch for "Love Sex Again" by Dr. Lauren Streicher 4/16/14
Last year, we had the pleasure of planning and coordinating the launch for Dr. Lauren Streicher's book Love Sex Again. We had a great day with Lauren at Northwestern Hospital, enjoying her talk and all the awesome booths, and an even better time that evening at the Paris Club! Elena Bazini did a wonderful job capturing the day, as always.
Check out Dr. Lauren Streicher's books here!
Flashback Friday | Colleen + Keith 9/5/10
VENUE: SEASONS OF LONG GROVE | PHOTOGRAPHY: ESSENCE PHOTO AND VIDEO | FLORIST: SYLVIA'S | CUPCAKES: MRS. A CUPCAKES / CENTRAL CONTINENTAL BAKERY
We loved Colleen and Keith's wedding back in September of 2010! It was a gorgeous day for a gorgeous couple.
AELO Alumni | Dana + Matt 3/15/14
PHOTOGRAPHER: TUAN H. BUI | CATERER: GET OFF THE COUCH CATERING | VENUE: CHICAGO URBAN ART SOCIETY | DECOR: BRIDE AND GROOM DIY, AELO EXECUTION | DJ: TOAST & JAM | SPECIALTY BEERS: POWELL BROTHERS BREWERY | CAKE: LUSCIOUS LAYERS
Dana and Matt are two of the sweetest! With awesome vendors and gorgeous colors, they had an excellent day at the Chicago Urban Art Society! They had some serious DIY ideas, and we thought they came out beautifully. And if you're wondering, we always bring a tool kit with a DIY wedding like this! After an incredibly sweet ceremony, they danced the night away, and the incredible Tuan H.Bui did a beautiful job capturing it all.
Dana and Matt, we hope your first year of marriage was amazing, and wish you all the best for the future! Cheers!
