cafe brauer wedding

---

Larken and Zack are married! These two have been together for about 15 years(!!) and their family and friends were so ready to see this wedding happen!

Larken admitted that she struggles making design decisions, so when it came to selecting her wedding aesthetic, she trusted her amazing vendor team to make magic happen and BOY did magic happen! I'll always love a Cafe Brauer wedding and when you bring in one of my favorite floral designers, Jenna of Avant Gardenia, you can guarantee the design is going to knock socks off!

Larken and Zack opted for a bridal party free wedding day and I can't stress enough how much I love this option! It makes the wedding day so chill and stress-free, and bonus, you get tons of portrait time for just the two of you! We had the most beautiful July day (not too hot!) at Lincoln Park getting all the gorgeous Chicago garden photos!

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Marshall!
