I’m in awe of these photos from Emma & Donald’s wedding day. Every shot captures the joy and love radiating from their faces—speaking more than words could ever say. Witnessing two AMAZING people so deeply in love, surrounded by those who mean the most to them, is something we never take for granted at WDC.

Emma & Donald deserve all the happiness this world has to offer. Congratulations to an incredible couple and the start of a wonderful new chapter!

This fall has been filled with beautiful wedding celebrations, and Jestelle & Nick’s special day was no exception. Their vision for a stress-free, laid-back day came to life perfectly. After a sweet first look at their hotel, they strolled a few blocks to Loft Lucia, capturing candid moments along the way—West Loop is ideal for that! Once they arrived, they enjoyed a stunning ceremony on the terrace, followed by cocktails, dinner, and dancing. It was a day to remember. Congratulations to the happy newlyweds!

Finally sharing photos from Pat and Jessie’s unforgettable wedding day! They chose to tie the knot just a block away from home, which added a wonderfully intimate and natural touch to the celebration.

The ceremony and cocktail hour took place on Loft Lucia’s stunning terrace, leading into a night filled with dinner and dancing. Jessie made an absolutely stunning bride!

Wanting to share their celebration with Tim’s family and friends in the U.S., the couple held an intimate ceremony in Chicago on Saturday.

I can’t believe it’s been four years since this incredible journey began. This photo was taken by during the city’s shutdown at the height of the pandemic. Despite the challenges, Anders and I teamed up to create unforgettable wedding day experiences for our couples. It was such a thrill to explore a quiet, wide-open city while ensuring our couples had a fabulous wedding day. And to be honest, there are many days I find myself craving the stillness and simplicity of those times.

And yes, the lack of traffic and endless parking options were pretty nice too! Oh what I would give to get that piece of it all back. 🥰
