It’s hard to believe that it has been nearly a year since Michelle and Jeremy walked down the aisle at Assumption Catholic Church in Chicago. The great part of being located in the far Southwest corner of Michigan, convenient to several major interstates, is that we’re able to travel short distances to very different locales for weddings. Southwest Michigan offers beautiful destination weddings along the shore of Lake Michigan and is home to breathtaking countryside settings just inland. In less than two hours, we can also be in the heart of downtown Chicago to take in the expanse of urban architecture and an incredible skyline. We’re also close to a variety of college towns and a short day trip from Detroit.
On June 18th last year, staff photographer, Melissa Brentlinger, and I had the opportunity to document the wedding of Michelle and Jeremy in downtown Chicago. The ceremony at Assumption Catholic Church was followed by a lovely reception at Fulton’s on the River. Floral design was provided by Dilly Lily and the party went strong well into the evening with the help of DJ Sarah Kohtala of Toast and Jam .
