Chicago Knickerbocker Hotel Wedding : Melissa and Steve

posted by Steve Koo in Weddings on April 16th, 2012

Remember Melissa and Steve? They had one of the most fun engagement sessions I had ever been a part of, starting with some BBQ for dinner, a couple games of bowling, topped off with some karaoke! This fantastic couple was having their wedding at the Chicago Knickerbocker Hotel, and I couldn’t wait to work with them again.

I started off the wedding day with Melissa and the girls as they got ready in a suite.

The guys got ready in another room at the Chicago Knickerbocker Hotel, and once they had figured out their bow ties, headed downstairs for Melissa and Steve’s first look.

After the first look, we jumped in a trolley with the wedding party to do a few photos around downtown.

And then it was back to the hotel for the ceremony!

And then there was the time a groomsman jumped on top of another groomsman to celebrate:

With wedding party photos already done, Melissa and Steve enjoyed their cocktail hour before being introduced at the reception.

Time for the dance party! The band (Colby Bessera and Great Life Music) were fantastic, and they kept everyone on the dance floor all night long!

I love the light-up dance floor at the Chicago Knickerbocker Hotel:

Bouquet toss!

Yet another groomsman jumping on top of a fellow groomsman:

Just like at their engagement session, the bride and groom made sure to get a little karaoke in!

We stepped out for a couple quick photos in front of the hotel:

Congratulations again, Melissa and Steve! Thank you so much for letting me be a part of your wedding day. I wish you both nothing but the best!

Chicago Courthouse Wedding : Pam and Johnny

posted by Steve Koo in Weddings on April 9th, 2012

Pam and Johnny were planning a Chicago wedding at City Hall, and I was excited to be able to come along! We met before the civil ceremony and grabbed a few photos at a park.

Now, it was off to the courthouse for the wedding:

Afterwards, we jumped outside for a couple more photos outside City Hall.

Congratulations Pam and Johnny; thank you so much for letting me come along and document your day!
