Happy Anniversary Deitzah and Andrew!

It was such a pleasure planning Deitzah and Andrew’s wedding, I just loved this couple and I am happy to now call them my friends!  A year ago today, on an uncharacteristically cold June day, they were married at Room 1520.  Despite the cold, the wedding was gorgeous!  The couple, the dress, the space and the decor – all gorgeous!
There were so many good photos, but here are some of my favorites.  Let’s take a glimpse back into their day…

Her bouquet and florals were by the fabulous Kelly Marie Uss of Fleur.

Look at the back of her dress…are you kidding??! stunning

I just love this one of the bride and her sisters and brother!

I am absolutely obsessed with the back of this gown!

Back at Room 1520, getting ready to walk down the aisle!

I loved the Bridesmaid’s TwoBirds dresses – they were so versatile and elegant!

Billy ball escort cards – cute as a button!

Vintage chest of drawers, perfect for the wedding cards!

Tables names after Chicago neighborhoods 😉

Cake and cupcakes from Sweet Mandy B’s – yum!

It was a an evening to remember – truly spectacular!

Happy Anniversary you two!
