We first met briefly at the University of Colorado, but it was not until five years later in Chicago when we met again that we really hit it off. Instantly the two of us were best friends and simply loved being around one another. During our growing and deepening friendship, we realized just how much that we truly loved one another and began dating.

The components that made the entire wedding weekend so special were having personal touches spread throughout the day that are characteristic of the two of us. The groom is a great fan of scotch, and his most important element of the wedding was ensuring that there was a scotch bar at the reception. With the cigars, expansive selection of whiskey, and robust leather couches - it was a huge hit! The bride was more focused on the smaller details of the wedding, such as having her mother’s wedding dress and grandmother’s brooch tied around her bouquet.

We feel so lucky to have worked with all of our wonderful vendors and cannot thank them enough for all they did to make our best day ever, so incredible. With their intensive help and collaboration, we created the most amazing day of our lives, with the ones that we love the most, which we will cherish and remember forever.
