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.

VENUE: GUESTHOUSE HOTEL | PHOTOGRAPHER: INGRID BONNE | MUSIC: GUSSIED | CATERER: SOUTHPORT GROCERY

What's better than planning a wedding with a wonderful family? Planning the post-wedding birthday brunch for the FOB! After the incredible night Lizzie + Travis had, The Guesthouse Hotel was so accommodating and the perfect setting to ring in Sam Lovelady's 60th year. Gussied provided the music, and Ingrid captured the beautiful morning perfectly! We loved being a part of this wonderful family's weekend!

Lizzie and Travis. We have no words. These two are ridiculously sweet, funny, adorable, and it was just an absolute joy to plan with them for a year! We loved their families and their friends, and had the best time making their day come to life. From picking out FIG's vintage plates, to selecting the music choices, and bringing all the elements from Architectural Artifacts into their decor, we had a fabulous time creating their dream day. Lizzie wore the dress her mom and grandmother did, and then changed into an awesome blue dress for the reception. We love that! And how about that little Pierre?? Cutest pup award!

Lizzie and Travis, we wish you all the best in the world. Congratulations, newlyweds!
