Happy Friday! I’m excited to be able to kick off the weekend by sharing some photos from Samantha and Nate’s wedding at Salvage One in Chicago. If these two (and their puppy) look familiar, it’s because you’ve seen them on the blog before during their engagement session. I had an amazing time with them during their engagement session, as we talked about everything from puppy dogs to hot dogs, and I was excited to be able to work with them again on their wedding day.
I started off my day with Samantha and the girls as they got ready at their place.
Of course, Chloe was a part of the wedding day!
Off to St. Benedict’s for the ceremony.
One of my favorites from the day:
I loved the pink accent on the train of Samantha’s dress – it fit her personality perfectly, and it looked even cooler from above!
After the ceremony, we headed to Salvage One for the reception. We took advantage of the good weather by doing a few wedding party photos in the garden outside. I loved the yellow dresses and the different-colored shoes that the bridesmaids rocked out!
Samantha’s lovely bouquet by the team at Pollen:
I loved this Chicago hot dog wedding cake!
And now, time for the dance party!
We ran outside at the end of the night for a shot in front of the great Chicago sign at Salvage One.
Congratulations again, Samantha and Nate! Thank you so much for letting me be a part of your wedding day. I had a blast, and I wish you both nothing but the best!
