For Caitlin and Matt, the celebration of their marriage was long overdue. Caitlin and Matt officially were married in November of 2020 at St. Alphonsus Catholic Church  and like many couples had to put their celebration on hold. They had waited countless days to celebrate with loved ones and the time had finally come!

The ladies gathered at the Sheraton Suites Chicago O’Hare and everyone was all smiles as the sun rose without a cloud in the sky. Rare Bird Beauties joined us with their stellar glam-team to help the ladies with their hair and makeup. Ashley of Ashley Hamm Photography along with Old North Film Company were there to capture every moment as the celebration began.  The girls looked stunning in their navy floor length dresses. The luscious ivory bouquets were the perfect accessory!

Caitlin was ready to meet Matt for their first look.  Second City Trolley then took the bridal party around town for photos as Ashley captured the glowing couple on a perfect fall day.

After photos, the wedding party arrived at Cafe La Cave to continue the celebration.  Design de Flores, Inc.  did a lovely job decorating the space with their vibrant fall arrangements.  The energy of guests who finally had gathered to celebrate Caitlin and Matt was electric.  Following cocktails guests made their way into the main hall for dinner and dancing. There was no guessing that this crowd was ready to celebrate!  The speeches and toasts were thoughtful, funny, and heartfelt; they filled the room with laughs and love.  Shortly after dinner the dance floor was filled with friends and family which continued well into the night thanks to Music Creations.

Guests were invited to indulge in some late night snacks with sliders from White Castle; highly recommend!

We are totally OBSESSED with this video that Old North Films put together.  Enjoy!

It was incredible being a part of this long overdue celebration. We wish Caitlin and Matt all the very best!
