Nicollette and Charlie’s wedding day had finally arrived, and we could not have been more excited!  Rachelle Mazumdar of Style-Architects Weddings & Events had planned an unforgettable day, and we knew that every detail would be perfect.  From the invitations by Paper Rock Scissor, to Nicollette’s gorgeous dress from Vera Wang, Chicago, to the stunning florals by Apricot Floral, every single element was absolutely incredible! The morning started with the ladies at ModernWell, while the men got ready at the Marquette Hotel Jolliet House.  We transitioned to Loring Park for Nicollette’s first look with Charlie as well as a sweet first look with the groomsmen.  The Loring Social area was perfect for portraits, and we finished up wedding party photos just before heading over to Quincy Hall for Nicollette’s first look with her father and family photos.

The ceremony began and Snowshoe Productions did an amazing job of capturing the event on video.  Following the ceremony, guests enjoyed cocktail hour before heading into the reception hall.  The space looked incredible thanks to PHOS Events, Linen Effects, Rudy’s Event Rentals, BBJ Linen, and Apres Event Decor.  Guests had a blast dancing to live music with Northstar of Elan Artists as the bride and groom entered to join the party.  Dinner by Crave was served at stations followed by the most beautiful cake by Farina Baking Company.

Following dinner, we braved the rain for a few epic photos just before Nicollette changed into her dress from BERTA, New York for her first dance with Charlie.  The evening was filled with both laughter and tears throughout dinner, speeches, and first dances, and was topped off with fire-grilled pizza and a delicious array of desserts.  Nicollette and Charlie, it was an honor to be a part of your beautiful wedding, and we hope that Bali is every bit as amazing for your honeymoon!
