Chicago Microwedding: Maura + Matt

It’s no secret that we love a city wedding. And that doesn’t always have to mean skyscrapers. Every big city is really just a collection of neighborhoods. And this Chicago microwedding shows that a stroll around the block to your favorite spots is photo worthy itself!

And it doesn’t hurt that the venue is stunning. A gorgeous urban farm that makes you feel you aren’t even in the city anymore…. until the train rolls by! And farm to table food that is so good you’ll want to have it everyday (trust me, I’ve eaten here).

From their Photographer:

” Maura + Matt got ready together in their hotel room in the Hoxton. It meant a lot to the two of them to share that moment together! After some dress help from Maura’s mother Tammy, we ventured out for some portraits around Logan Square. The couple had often frequented Lula Café when they had lived in the area, so we made sure to take some photos in front of the restaurant. We had called ahead earlier in the day for the chance to pop inside, which was a great opportunity to snag some pictures in the best seats in the house! After more photos by the infamous “Greetings from Chicago” mural, it was time to head over to their Big Delicious Planet Wedding. The couple were married by the bride’s father on a gorgeous evening in Chicago. As the sun began to set, Maura + Matt exchanged their beautiful vows in front of close friends and family. After their big kiss, the wedding guests filed toward the front of the venue to grab cocktails. Dinner soon followed. Maura’s sister made a speech, the couple smooched MANY times after friends clinked their glasses with forks, and everyone present had the best time. This Big Delicious Planet wedding was a magical affair, something I could only dream of. Love and sunshine encompassed the entire day for Maura + Matt. Congrats on a beautiful wedding!”
