Alex & Mark’s Wedding 8.12.23 | Chicago Union Station Wedding

It was a sunny and warm 82-degree Saturday in August, and the day marked and a new beginning for Alex and Mark.

Alex and Mark got ready at The W Chicago before having their first look a couple blocks away in front of a gorgeous gold door on LaSalle Street. The couple then went around the city, along with their sibling who served in their wedding party, to take photos at the Franklin-Orleans Bridge and Riverpoint Park. Their wedding took place at the iconic Chicago Union Station with the ceremony and cocktail hour on the Adams Balcony and the reception in the Burlington Room. One of my favorite details of their wedding was the couples’ photos they took during the reception on the stunning staircase inside the venue.

Alex and Mark were amazing to work with. They were incredibly sweet, personable and trusting in my advice throughout the entire wedding planning process to make their special day run smoothly so they could truly enjoy their day. I’m honored to have been a part of one of the most special days in their lives, and I wish them both all the love and happiness in the world!
