Melissa looked remarkable and flawless in her Stella York dress! Her gown was a beautiful soft beaded fit and flare with a unique back. Classic and timeless lace with a twist.

Melissa & Jon’s expressions say it all! They are beaming with joy and you can almost feel the excitement coming from them!

Melissa’s gown was adorned with soft, delicate beading from top to bottom. The extended cage train was perfectly on trend, giving her trip down the aisle drama & awe. The lace pattern and fit on her Stella York wedding dress could not have fit her personality better.

Melissa & Jon had a beautiful and natural wedding at The Danada House in Wheaton IL. Her neutral palate complimented the beautiful organic style of her venue and personal style in the most perfect way.

Her bridesmaids were all in Sorella Vita dresses – her maids of honor were adorned in beautiful bronze nouveau sparkle, while the rest of the party wore rosewood.

Congratulations to Melissa & Jon! You made for a handsome couple and truly wish you both all the best as you take these next beautiful steps together.

CJ & Brian had the dream rustic wedding and we are so excited to share some of the amazing details they incorporated! Their ceremony was held at the First Congregational Church of Geneva. A lovely and classic church right in our backyard! The Reception was held at the gorgeous Abbey Farms in Aurora. It was a beautiful backdrop for the rustic feel the couple was looking to accomplish.

  • Essense of Australia’s Stella York 6432 – This dress is amazing!
  • Finishing touches to her look
  • Don’t forget the fluff!

CJ wore a stunning sweetheart strapless a-line wedding dress designed by Stella York. The lace bodice and textured tulle skirt added the perfect touch of fun and elegance to her big day.

  • We’re all about these detailed shots! From the flowers to the dresses, the color scheme is GOALS!!
  • “Playing dress up begins at age five and truly never ends” – Kate Spade
  • CJ & her lovely mother

Her mom added her own personal touch by making a custom bridal belt complete with ivory trim and a beaded detail at the center. Their gorgeous flowers were competed by our favorite floral vendor Town & Country Gardens. They captured the romance and feminine look that really makes CJ’s dress really pop!

  • The blushing bride!
  • What a dreamy couple!
  • Love!
Where would we be without our girls!?

CJ’s bridesmaids were the perfect execution of mix & match bridesmaids styles. Each look complimented each bridesmaid and really gave a beautiful palette to work off of. She used multiple designers and fabrics to give the look and feel of individuality. The designers represented are Bill Levkoff, The Dessy Group & Jasmine Bridesmaids.

  • First dance photos are always our favorites!

We LOVE first dance photos! It really gives your guests a chance to admire your entire look from all angles.
Pro tip: Make sure you take your time and don’t cut your first dance short! Some venues/coordinators may recommend cutting certain corners to accommodate and tight schedules. This is such a beautiful moment to cherish and you will remember it forever.
