Columbus Park Refectory Wedding of Sarah and Phil

Photographer: Jiho

September 30, 2023, I had the great opportunity to document Phil and Sarah’s wedding at the Columbus Park Refectory in Chicago. It is just outside of Oak Park Illinois. This was my first time shooting a wedding at this venue and I think it is a hidden gem. It sorta of reminds me of a smaller Cafe Brauer in Lincoln Park with the surrounding pond and greenery that surrounds the venue. The pavilion where the ceremony was held had beautiful lines that led to them during the vows. We started down town Oak Park at the Carleton Hotel for their getting-ready pictures and first look. It was a perfect day to celebrate their wedding day. Please check out the highlights from their special day.
