Best Chicago Wedding Photography | Ted + Maggie

Eleganthawaiiwedding ellerosephoto TM 95 Oh, my heart. My last Chicago wedding for now – and I could not have closed it all out with anyone better. Maggie + Ted are these two super incredible people who were 100% destined to find each other and make us all want to smile + dance + just be around them because they have this contagious wonderfulness about them. So you know me, getting to capture all of that just made my heart so incredibly happy. I had the best time over the last year working out details with them for the big day – and through the honeymoon, because obviously I forced them to hang out with me here in Hawaii when they made their way to Oahu for some newlywed pictures… check back in soon for those! Anyway, this wedding day of theirs was absolutely one for the books. The details were thoughtfully curated, Maggie has one hell of an eye. But all of that was sidelined by the smiles that these two have when they are together – they light up rooms you guys, like honestly they do!! Plus everyone else was so psyched to be there celebrating these two as they officially shared their vows!  Okay, enough out of me gushing on these two – time for the happy love!!

A few words from the newlyweds ::

Most hilarious moment of the day? Being presented with Lord of the Rings gifts
Would you have done anything differently?  Nope! Wish there was a way to slow time down because it really was over too quickly
Favorite moment from your day? When the Aurelio’s pizza arrived 🙂
Any tips or tricks for future couples planning their weddings? Ted’s advice is to let your future wife do everything…I say I’m fine with that as long as the husband-to-be pays for it 😉 Also, hire Elle Rose events and go to Hawaii for your honeymoon and a photoshoot with Laurie (Listen to Maggie, she is very wise : )
