Planning with these two unbelievably brilliant, and unbelievably beautiful, people was a joy. We love when a couple knows exactly what they want! Their detailed vision came to life on a gorgeous summer day on the Northwestern campus, and just look at those radiant smiles. A sweet, touching ceremony followed by songs and toasts from their friends and family, followed by dancing and laughter made this a wonderful day.
We wish this truly striking, special couple a lifetime of success and happiness together. And be sure to check out Alison's impressive work as an investigative journalist in her upcoming book, “Exoneree Diaries: The Fight for Innocence, Independence and Identity”. We're proud to call her an AELO Alum!
Flashback Friday | Johanna + Brent 7/21/12
Some more summer happiness! We helped Johanna and Brent plan their wedding while they were living in Tunisia, and if ever there were two more down-to-earth people, we've never met them. What a gorgeous event! We love these two and wish them all the happiness in the world.

Talk about a woman with a vision! Sanni and Carlos had an absolutely beautiful day at Cellar Gate Wine Market in Highwood, and we loved being a part of it. She rocked that dress, the ceremony was unbelievably sweet, and Sanni's vision for the decor was amazing. She designed and gathered everything herself, and with our execution, it came together beautifully. We loved the venue and all her vendors, and it was so much fun coming together with all of them to make their dream day come true. Congratulations, you two! We know you are going to have a brilliant life together!
Flashback Friday | Nate + Justin 10/13/12
Nate + Justin were an absolute joy to work with. The love in the room that day was palpable. Everything - from the cool decor to their puppy ring bearer to the serious partying after the ceremony - was perfect and we were so pleased to get to be a part of it all. We hope they and their sweet baby are loving their lives together.
