Margaret and Alex are Married!

She’s an amazing nurse, he’s a fantastic musician, and together they’re two peas in a pod. I met Alex and Maggie last year and instantly fell in love with these two. Maggie’s personality is so zany and full of life, and Alex is such an all around fun and easygoing guy that you can’t help but feel at ease with them. Their wedding ceremony was held at gorgeous St. Clement church in Lincoln Park, and their reception was at the super charming Carleton of Oak Park. Now, I have always believed in miracles, but the fact that we didn’t get absolutely dumped on by rain and thunderstorms when the radar showed what it did was nothing short of unbelievable. (ahem…totally prayed for that…) Thank you, Alex and Margaret, for being so happy together, for being so ready to just ENJOY your day, and for kicking off my season with such a bang!

Check out the amazing rings…

And Maggie’s pearls, of course…

I couldn’t believe that Maggie did the flowers herself! Here’s her bouquet!

Getting ready…

I love this portrait of Maggie…

And this one…

We headed on over to St. Clement church. I was giddy when I walked in and saw this…

Some real moments during the wedding Mass…

Married!

We headed near the Lincoln Park Conservatory and found this little spot with some nice light. I love these casual portraits of Alex and Maggie together.

The reception was an insanely fun time. Here are some snippets to give you an idea…

Thank you so much, Maggie and Alex, for allowing me to photograph your beautiful wedding day. I can’t wait for you to see the rest! xoxo, Katie
