What a beautiful night! We had the best time with this gorgeous couple. Erin + Steven are an incredibly generous, kind pair of educators and we were thrilled to be a part of their day. The ceremony at St. Ben's, the parish Erin grew up in, was gorgeous, the humidity abated for a beautiful cocktail hour on the roof of Ignite, the toasts were so sweet, and then they partied their butts off. Such a fun couple, such wonderful guests, a great team of vendors...we couldn't ask for anything more.

Congratulations, Erin + Steven! We wish you a long, happy life together.

AELO Alumni | Garrett + Minda, 8/24/16

VENUE: REDFIELD ESTATE | PHOTOGRAPHY: CUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY | CATERING: HANDCUT FOODS (The groom's company!) | CAKE: AMY BECK CAKE DESIGN | PHOTOBOOTH CAMERA: SHUTTERBOX ENTERTAINMENT | FLORALS: NILEE EVENT DECOR | HAIR AND MAKEUP: TOTAL IMAGE BRIDAL | DJ: TOAST + JAM | ROLLS ROYCE: CLASSIC WEDDING CAR | VIDEOGRAPHY: VANILLA VIDEO

What an incredible day. After rain threatened, we ended up with sunshine and warmth (and a lot of humidity). Garrett and Minda tied the knot at the glorious Redfield Estate in August. It was an incredibly emotional ceremony followed by delicious hors d'oeuvres, an excellent buffet of Chicago style hot dogs and Italian beef, and an awesome dance party! Minda's father made the cutest photobooth, the Rocky theme played during their first kiss, and let's just bask in the glory that was Minda's dresses. What a queen. Candice Cusic captured their day so beautifully, up until they left in the vintage Rolls Royce.

We wish these two beautiful people a happy and long life together!
