Best Chicago Wedding Photography | Ted + Maggie
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!! I just super loved these details man. This dress on this bride = yesyesyesyesyesssssss. Those bridal first look reactions : ) Perfection all around. MARRRRRIED! SUPER LOVE Killin that groom game Ted! Look at these details! Maggie – that vision of yours girl, #nailedit Like, flawless elegance girl. You two are the best. Time to head over to Gaelic Park for the reception!

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 : )
And then, they danced! Ted + Maggie I could not imagine closing out my Chicago wedding run with anyone else. Y’all are something special together and the goodness that you have makes the rest of us better. For real, all that happy love was totally contagious!! Thank you, thank you so very much for having us there to help coordinate + execute your wedding vision, and to capture it all as it unfolded so beautifully in front of us! We had so much fun getting to hang out with you and your incredible families + friends — just SOMUCHFUN. Cheers to you newlyweds! XO – laurie I super love this crew so much.
