Bonphotage Loews Hotel Chicago Roofdeck Wedding - Allie + Kenny

Now, *THIS*  is a Chicago wedding! With a "who's-who" of wedding vendors, a perfectly sunny day and a gorgeous Chicago skyline, Allie + Kenny's wedding was one for the books! Wrap It Up Parties perfectly executed the day, starting from the ceremony, which took place at the Loew's hotel, overlooking the city, with beautiful candelabras and florals from Kehoe Designs. Inside, peonies flowed from the sweetheart table and the "Beauty and the Beast" theme continued with a giant fairy tale love story for guests to take their photos in front of. The couple danced the night away and fun was had by all! What an enchanted evening!

Congrats you two and enjoy this sneak peek!

Some weddings just leave you speechless. The emotion, the love, the happy tears...Megan and Kiril's wedding was one of those.

Bonphotage Fine Art Gatlinburg Wedding Photography - Ashley + Brian

I really try not to play favorites with our couples, but it was so hard not to love every moment we spent photographing Ashley and Brian's wedding in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Let's start with the absolutely stunning setting at the Park Vista Hotel, overlooking the vast Smoky Mountain National Park, on a perfectly sunny summer day. The view alone was enough to make us never want to leave. Add to that, a couple so in love, that they actually didn't need any guidance at all for posing - all of those incredibly intimate moments you see on this blog? Those are just them, being themselves (can anybody say "CHEMISTRY?!") 

Their first look took place on the edge of a cliff where Brian took a moment to take in the scenery and reflect on his upcoming nuptials. When Ashley approached and he took a look at his beautiful bride, the tears began (for ALL of us!) It was impossible not to feel the incredible love between them! The day then continued with a ceremony overlooking the vast nature and an al-fresco dinner filled with so many laughs and love (and the cutest kiddos!) 

We are honored to have been a small part of their wedding day and so excited to share a sneak peek! Congratulations you two!
