Chicago Athletic Association Wedding
Just a couple Notre Dame University Alumni getting married in Chicago a couple weeks ago! I still can’t get over the fact that they coincidentally hiked Half Dome (in Yosemite National Park) one the same day and at the same time!
Shout out to Kelly from Shannon Gail Weddings + Betty from Chicago Athletic Association – they helped make their wedding day flawless!

First up…a few favorites from their Chicago Athletic Association wedding day!
This staircase is everything-
Since they live on the west coast, the bride and groom wanted photos with the Chicago skyline! I think this picture just shows off our Chicago architecture!
We haven’t done a photo with The Bean (Cloud Gate) in Millennium Park in awhile…the red dresses helped add the perfect contrast of color!

Millennium Park Wedding Photos
Since the hotel is just across the street from Millennium Park, we made sure to incorporate this iconic location into their wedding photos! Here’s a shot from the Lurie Gardens.
The Bean…aka: Cloud Gate
Getting a little Abbey Road vibes from these crossing Michigan Avenue photos
There’s a reason photographers love to photograph weddings at the CAA…the interior decor is so photogenic!
Going a little fashion magazine editorial with this picture

Look at all the detail in the ballroom at the CAA Hotel. The ceiling…the wood paneling…complimented by the decor from Steve’s Flower Market
A perfect view of Lake Michigan during the wedding reception.
Popped upstairs to Cindy’s rooftop for a quick photo!
First dance photos-
Shout out to all the Notre Dame alumni in attendance!
Had no idea this was going to happen…but it was pretty amazing!
