Elizabeth is the kind of girl who knows what she likes.  With an impeccable eye for style and the practicality to make decisions, she knows how to make the world around her a more beautiful place.  Adrian is Elizabeth’s perfect match – where she is serious, he is goofy, making her laugh in that way that only one’s love can do.   Together, they seem to balance each other – perfect complements.

Elizabeth was one of the most well-prepared brides I had worked with, and so I shouldn’t really have been surprised to find that she was ready for rain as well as sun on her wedding day.  When Saturday’s sunny afternoon quickly turned into a downpour, Elizabeth made the best of it.  With their ceremony and reception at the lovely Promontory Point on Chicago’s South Side, they simply moved the ceremony indoors and opened up the hall’s French doors.

Here’s some info:

Adrian created this charming little sign to help guests find the wedding site:

Elizabeth saw the rain as an opportunity for some super-cute wedding photos:

We took advantage of some dramatic clouds to get a few unique shots of the Chicago skyline:

 

I really liked this image of Adrian helping Elizabeth, what a gentleman:

The hall was a beautiful setting for their ceremony, performed by Rev. Ron Crowley-Koch:

Promontory Point also features a turret, which is great for dramatic shots like this:

The lighting from the turret window perfectly illuminated Elizabeth’s fine features:

The rainy day turned into a beautiful evening:
