Antoinette and Matthew’s wedding day began at the Bridge in downtown Lemont, where we captured the bridal prep. Meanwhile, Matthew got ready at his parents’ home. Antoinette shared a heartfelt first look with her father and a special reveal with her bridesmaids, setting an emotional tone for the day.
Their ceremony took place at SS. Cyril & Methodius Parish, is one of Lemont’s most breathtaking churches. Its grand architecture provided a stunning setting for their vows.
Despite the chilly weather, we stepped outside for portraits and caught the golden hour light. The deep freeze didn’t stop us from capturing some incredible moments. To warm up, we headed to a local brewery, where the wedding party enjoyed microbrews while we took indoor photos.
The celebration continued at Venuti’s Banquets in Addison, Illinois. A large gathering, an electrifying atmosphere, and heartfelt moments made the reception unforgettable.
