We had the honor to be a part of Sara + Greg’s Morgan Manufacturing Wedding, and just HAD to share these beautiful photographs from Paper Antler Photography! We decided to do this blog a little differently because the bride & groom answered our follow-up questions, and we thought it may be beneficial for those getting […]

As we did our very first venue highlight, we looked back at all our past weddings and events, and one venue truly stood out as one of the most visited by our team here in Chicago: Bridgeport Art Center’s Wedding Venues. It is STUNNING with 2 different venues on site you can choose to celebrate. […]

Caitlin + Andrew’s Hotel Arista Hotel Arista wedding in Chicago was a DREAM! Their Fall wedding was romantic and elegant- with lots of gorgeous, rich red and blush tones. What really stood out for us about the day, however, is how perfectly matched the couple is and how wonderful they were to work with! Ashely […]

Now this couple may just be the cutest we have ever worked with! We have never seen so much love between a Bride & Groom. The Bride was actually in Indiana during the planning process, so the Groom was our main point of contact. He came to the walk through, and we actually did not […]

Alyssa and Anthony were a DREAM! Seriously, we are SO fortunate to work with so many incredible couples and these two were no exception. The bride’s family made EVERYTHING & AEG added their amazing flare! All of the signage, Alyssa’s mother made (so impressive)! This family was absolutely incredible! SO kind, SO organized, and were […]
