Landmark Restaurant Chicago Wedding

You may remember Renata and Martin from their fun Chicago engagement session. I had so much fun with them the first time around, so I was really excited for their wedding at the Landmark Restaurant! I started off my day with Renata as she got ready at the Westin River North. The weather was beautiful, so once everyone was ready to go, we had our first look on the bridge just outside the hotel. Afterwards, we ran around to a few spots in the city to do fun portraits with the wedding party. Before we knew it, it was time for the ceremony at Holy Trinity Church. Since we had done all the wedding party photos beforehand, we headed straight to the Landmark Restaurant after the ceremony for the reception. It was my first time at the Landmark, and I loved both the space and the food! Jenny, the events point person at the restaurant, graciously took a couple minutes to show me the entire restaurant layout. Dinner was fantastic, and the dance floor was packed, as people danced and enjoyed a slideshow of photos showing the bride and groom throughout their lives. Congratulations Renata and Martin, and thank you again for giving me the opportunity to document your wedding day. I wish you guys nothing but the best!
