In my last post, I shared the start of Kathy and Jason’s day with their getting ready and ceremony. I’m excited to share the rest of their wedding day!

Kathy and Jason’s wedding party was so much fun, and they all look great in their navy blue!
We’d had terrible storms in Chicago the night before the wedding. I always try and do my “no rain dance” for all of my couples, and it worked for Kathy and Jason! They had a beautiful, sunny day.
So cute!
Kathy and Jason opted for a vintage car to take them around – it fit the theme of their day perfectly.
While everyone was out taking pictures, I was at Bistrot Margot setting everything up.
This room was perfect for their wedding, and would also work well for a rehearsal dinner.


Kathy and Jason wanted their guests to enjoy board games during the reception so they had two big game tables.
For a guest book, the couple created a marriage certificate for their guests to sign. So fun to frame after the wedding!
Once everyone had enjoyed some hors d’oeuvres and champagne during cocktail hour, it was time to sit down for toasts and dinner.
While everyone was eating, we set up the wedding pie! The couple chose a key lime pie to cut and share with their guests.
Even though it wasn’t a dancing reception, I was so happy when Kathy and Jason shared a dance. Such a special moment on the wedding day!
Finally, the festivities wound down and it was time for the bride and groom to call it a night.
Kathy and Jason, it was so wonderful being a part of your day! I wish you nothing but the best for a wonderful, wonderful marriage.
