Our Chicago couple has gotten hitched! They had a wonderful, sunny October wedding with autumn colors in full attendance. It was as sentimental as it was beautiful, there wasn’t a dry eye in the room. Lesley and Chris both have never been married before and you could just tell as they exchanged vows, that they were absolutely right to wait for each other. Their love is just magic and we’re so happy to capture it at their Whistling Straits wedding!
Chris is no stranger to grand gestures of love. He proposed in a gorgeous botanical garden and had even arranged a surprise party to follow to celebrate the good news! With a track record like that, we should’ve known something extravagant was about to happen. It was after they had said their I dos and were settling into their reception. Their first dance had come and gone, parent dances were done and almost to the end of the night. Chris knew his time to shine had come though. Secretly, he had arranged with the Lee Michaels DJ to play the classic, “Happy Together”. So he serenaded his bride in front of all their loved ones – but not without a little help. Lyric sheets in hand, their guests joined on in, the Irish Barn echoing the words of love and joy. In that moment, love really was in the air.
