It’s safe to say that these two had been looking forward to this day for a long time. Let’s just say they’ve been dating for a few years before tying the knot 😉 I arrived at Trump hotel where Carrie was getting ready with her mom and nieces. Her dress was probably my favorite of the entire year. It was drop dead gorgeous! It’s not surprising that Ted couldn’t take his eyes off her all day!

They wed in front of friends and family at River Roast downtown on the Chicago River. The joy, happiness and excitement on their faces the entire ceremony pretty much sums up their relationship. They are such kind and caring people who are so in love you can’t help but smile when you’re around them!

We headed outside for some photos post ceremony while guests enjoyed the city views from cocktail hour outside on the balcony.  The reception space was decked out in gorgeous bright peonies and being doughnut lovers they opted for a doughnut bar instead of the traditional wedding cake!

Congrats to the newlyweds!
