Colorful Spring Wedding at Walden Chicago – Anna-Kate & Greg
Last spring, I got to capture Anna-Kate and Greg’s gorgeous wedding celebration at Walden! Even though they had officially tied the knot in 2022, they’d always wanted to celebrate with friends and family here in Chicago. After a vow renewal ceremony on the venue’s 2nd floor, the party did not disappoint!
Walden Chicago Wedding
The day began with Anna-Kate and Greg getting ready separately at Walden. To say I was obsessed with Anna-Kate’s details would be an understatement! She truly had every accessory imaginable, customized just for her. Some DIY details by AK include the needlepointing on her jewelry box, and the entire stationery suite!
Both Anna-Kate and Greg looked spectacular for their first look on Walden’s rooftop overlooking the city. We took advantage of the view and surrounding neighborhood for photos… including underneath the El tracks! Classic Chicago 🙂 Finally, it was time to head back and get ready for their ceremony. Once these two said I Do, it was time to celebrate!!
Reception Highlights
Some of my favorite details from their reception include pops of spring color everywhere, photo booth props to honor their cats, and AK’s party dress! The evening was filled with love, laughter, and happy tears. DJ Kris kept the dance floor packed ALL night! I’m thankful the newlyweds snuck away for a few night photos with me – these are some of my favorite portraits from the entire day!
Anna-Kate and Greg: Thank you again for having us be a part of this happy day!! It was an absolute honor to capture. All my best to you both!
