Words cannot express how happy I was to photograph this wedding. The Bride, Beata (Dahlia Blooms Design) has been my favorite florist to work with for so many years, I can’t even remember. She’s a beautiful, kind soul who dedicates herself to make couples happy, and I was thrilled when she asked me to be her photographer. Steve her husband is the man who knows everyone, everywhere. His company (SC Lighting Design) did the amazing lighting for the reception. Big thank you to Steve’s brother Bryan who got us into the Board of trade, where we created truly unique photos. What a great GREAT day this was 😀

‘Angel Eyes Photography -Having Hilda as our photographer was the best decision we made. We were so lucky to have Hilda and Carol with us on our special day. Hilda has blown us away with her sneak peek photos!!!!
Flowers – Lovely from May Floral – having my flower friend design my flowers on our wedding day was so stress free…I can’t imagine doing my own flowers, she did an amazing job.

We loved purchasing our wedding bands from our good friend Bernie who owns Krystyna’s Jewelers in Lemont – Steve bought my engagement ring from Krystyna’s and she helped us pick our beautiful wedding bands.
We had so much fun taking photos with our bridal party at the Board of Trade, a big thank you to Steve’s brother Bryan who was able to get us inside the building and up on the rooftop, it was an amazing view.
Another favorite memory was walking into cocktail hour and seeing our close family and friends there who came to celebrate with us
Funny Moments from the wedding: Me putting my slip on upside down, and my Maid of Honor, Renee, helping me flip it over…Having wedding crashers at the wedding pretending to be our cousins.
I recommend not leaving things to the last minute (considering we planned the wedding in less than 5 months, I thought overall we did a good job)
Enjoy every moment of your wedding day because it truly goes by fast, hiring an amazing photographer helps take us back to that day to relive all those moments.’
