Have I mentioned lately how much I LOVE shooting weekday weddings? So much so that I’m working on a new site strictly for elopements and weekday weddings? (www.elopetochicago.com)…the site is still a work in progress.

So when Alexis contacted me about shooting their Monday wedding I was thrilled. They were having the ceremony at City Hall and then wanted some great photos around the city. They chose the date because it was their anniversary (love that!) and then jetted off for a sun soaked beach honeymoon.

There was a 70% chance of rain during the time we were looking to shoot… 70 PERCENT?! Guess what – it didn’t rain a drop. This is why I never trust the weather channel! We got soooo lucky that it stayed just north of us the entire time 🙂 Thanks mother nature for not making me go to a back up plan!

If you are getting married at city hall or having a small weekday wedding contact me ASAP. I’m still looking for a couple more weddings to feature when the site goes live!

Congrats to Alexis and Bob!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Of course we had to head to my favorite bridge (LaSalle) since it’s just a couple blocks from City Hall.

Next stop was Millenium Park. They decided to rent a car for the day which was the best move ever! It was so nice to not to have to flag down cabs, have her walk in her heels or worry about downtown parking. I highly recommend this to my couples!

Next stop Planetarium for some gorgeous skyline shots!

Last stop Union Station!
