Hollie & Kyle’s Romantic Seville Wedding

Hollie and Kyle met through mutual friends in Milwaukee and fell in love over trips together in Lake Geneva. Kyle proposed to Hollie in Lake Geneva and they started planning their happily ever after together. . .

Conrad loved getting to know Hollie and Kyle at their fall engagement session last year at Cantigny, These two are truly perfect together, it was such a treat to spend a beautiful fall evening with them. Fast-forward one year and Conrad and Lindsay were so excited to celebrate Hollie and Kyle’s wedding with them! Hollie is a die-hard Disney fan and planned a “classy Disney wedding” (as she described it) filled with thoughtful and pretty details throughout the day.

When Conrad and Lindsay arrived the girls were listening to “hard rock music so she wouldn’t cry;” Hollie and her fun squad of bridesmaids definitely set the stage for an amazing day! Hollie chose to rock a white pair of Nike Air Force Ones so she could be comfortable and trek anywhere for pictures. When Hollie saw her Dad for the first time in her wedding dress he told her “you can’t play soccer in that!” which was just about the cutest thing he could have told his little girl.

Kyle was emotional as Hollie walked down the aisle at St. Hubert’s to “You Got a Friend in Me.” After their beautiful traditional ceremony we went to Prairie Center for the Arts for photos – the Fall colors were at their peak and we took SO many gorgeous pictures there! From Prairie Center we landed at The Seville for the best party to celebrate this amazing couple. Our friend Ken from Amp Event Professionals set the stage for an unforgettable night – from the putt-putt setup to get the newlyweds to kiss to their emotional first dance and dances with their parents to Hollie and Kyle guest DJ-ing during dancing – it was a night we will never forget, what an honor to be alongside these two as they began their married lives together!

Congratulations, Hollie and Kyle, we love you and wish you a lifetime of happiness together!

Samantha & Josh’s Fairytale Chevy Chase Wedding

Once upon a swipe, Samantha and Josh matched on an online dating app. The conversation started with discussions on Disney Cruises as Samantha recently . . .

Once upon a swipe, Samantha and Josh matched on an online dating app. The conversation started with discussions on Disney Cruises as Samantha recently returned from an Alaskan Disney Cruise. Their discussion evolved overtime into many different topics as they learned more about each other. Josh enjoyed talking to Samantha, so he asked her out to dinner. On July 28, 2017, Samantha and Josh had their first date at The Cheesecake Factory. They discovered how easily the conversation flowed between them and continued to go out from then on. Thus, began the start of their magical relationship…

In February 7, 2020, Samantha and Josh embarked on their first real trip together to no place other than Disney World and on a Caribbean Disney Cruise! On their first night, Josh and Samantha headed to Magic Kingdom. As Samantha and Josh entered the park, Josh insisted on taking a picture in front of the castle. Samantha thought this was fishy as normally she is the one who requests taking pictures. A cast member took some cute pictures of them in front of the castle. Then Josh got down on one knee. Samantha was sure he was saying some beautiful and romantic things, but she did not hear a single word. She was too in awe and kept smiling and crying with how happy she was. When Josh pulled out the ring and put it on Samantha’s finger, Samantha could not see what the ring looked like nor did she even say yes… She had no words in the moment as it was the happiest moment of her life. People clapped as they witnessed the proposal which made Samantha’s cheeks even more rosy than they were to begin with. It was a truly magical night and Samantha and Josh know they will have an even more magical life together.

I loved getting to know Samantha and Josh at their engagement session last summer at Busse Woods. Josh is so smitten with Samantha, these two were made for one another. Due to Covid, Samantha and Josh had to postpone their big day, but decided to say their "I do's" in an intimate backyard ceremony on October 1, 2021. We were so happy to be a part of their big celebration on their one-year anniversary at Chevy Chase! This “Beauty and the Beast” themed wedding was like something out of a fairytale, it was a day we won’t soon forget!

Congratulations, Samantha and Josh, we love you and wish you a lifetime of happiness together!

Jenna and AJ’s Happily Ever After

Jenna and AJ’s love story reads like a fairy tale. They are truly perfect together, a princess who found her prince in someone who shares her love of music. Jenna works at The Metropolis and met AJ through his Mom, once they connected there were instant sparks between them! They grew to love each other and on their two year anniversary AJ proposed to Jenna in New York City, her favorite place in the world.

As Jenna and AJ planned their wedding they imagined a beautiful storybook celebration. But when Covid descended and life became filled with uncertainty this sweet couple was forced to change their plans. Jenna and AJ chose to get married on their original wedding date and exchanged their vows in an intimate ceremony at Hey Nonny in front of their immediate families and closest friends. It was a perfect day. And this year, Jenna and AJ finally got their “happily ever after” when we all gathered together at Victoria in the Park for the most beautiful celebration. The atmosphere was so charged with love and joy we truly didn’t want it to end, from the first sparkly moments to the packed dance floor with our friend Ken from Amp Event Professionals we had such a wonderful time finally properly celebrating Jenna and AJ!
