Chicago River Roast Wedding Photography | Catherine & Daniel’s Winter Celebration

Catherine and Daniel’s Chicago River Roast wedding was a beautiful and intimate celebration filled with love, laughter, and perfect weather for a winter wedding. Their December wedding in Chicago felt more like a fall day, with an unexpected 50-degree temperature. As a Chicago wedding photographer, I had the honor of capturing every heartfelt moment of their day, from their emotional first look to their lively reception at River Roast.

A Perfect December Wedding at River Roast

First Look at the Kinzie Hotel

Catherine and Daniel started their wedding day at the Kinzie Hotel with an early morning first look. Daniel’s reaction to seeing Catherine in her timeless wedding gown was priceless. Their joy and excitement set the tone for a day filled with special moments.

Laid-Back Portraits in Chicago

Before heading to the venue, we stopped at Jefferson Tap & Grille, where their love story began. This personal touch added a sentimental feel to their Chicago wedding portraits. The couple embraced the relaxed vibe, making for natural and genuine photos.

A Stunning Ceremony & Celebration at River Roast

Once at River Roast Chicago, Catherine and Daniel were greeted by family and friends. Their wedding ceremony was filled with warmth, followed by a delicious lunch reception. Guests took advantage of the beautiful weather, enjoying cocktails and mingling on the outdoor patio overlooking the Chicago River.

A Unique 200+ Guest Group Photo

With so much space outside, I saw an opportunity to capture something truly special—a group shot with all 200+ guests. It was one of the largest group portraits I’ve taken, and it turned out fantastic!
