Thank you to Style Me Pretty for featuring another beautiful wedding of Scarlet Petal's! In this feature, you will notice personalized elements like Japanese prints and a memory board created by the bride. We further enhanced the modern lines of the Chicago Illuminating Company by designing minimalist centerpieces with mounds of warm candlelight. Click here for the full post. Enjoy a few sneak peaks below thanks to David Wittig Photography!

Erin and Chad were one of the coolest couples we've worked with by far! Their style was "out of the box" and ultra modern - a perfect fit for their reception in the swanky surroundings of the Chicago Illuminating Company.
We really made some unique updates to their decor right down to the aisle runner at the ceremony. Instead of using a traditional white runner, we found a chic slate grey one to complement their platinum columns aligning their processional aisle. Even their ceremony set-up was in the round allowing for everyone to catch a glimpse of the stunning couple.
Chad Husar Photography captured the entire wedding on film and just posted a sneak peak at what's to come on their blog. Here's a few highlights, but the rest should be posted at the end of the week. I can't wait to share them with you!
Enjoy!
Happy Holidays! I hope everyone is enjoying
the beautiful sights around the city. I love this time of year in Chicago. The
sparkling lights down Michigan Avenue, snow dusted tree branches, and crisp
winter air make for such a romantic wedding setting. We have a few coming up
next week so stay tuned for new photos.
A short while ago I wrote a blog on the
Chicago Illuminating Company and how we were producing a fabulous event for
Elly and Dave. The gorgeous photos by Gerber and Scarpelli have just been
released and I couldn't wait to share them with you.
Elly and Dave selected the Chicago
Illuminating Company for its sleek and modern architecture. The white walls act
as a blank canvas, allowing floral pieces to take on a role of their own,
almost like works of art.
A continuum of minimalism at its best, the centerpieces consisted of Manzanita branches adorned with cymbidium orchid blossoms, submerged callas under a floating candle, and a low and lush arrangement of exotic floral surrounding a floating candle. It was stunning!
