Love the opportunity to see the light, get the light and get something clients and I both love. I love colors and contrast, that said, every client and moment is different in their way.

Love the chance for creativity at every wedding; every venue &amp; moment unravels differently

A full day wedding is design for the essential parts to be photographed &amp; not forgotten. Best for those with large families &amp; group of friends &amp; guest to be included in coverage. Bride with bridesmaids captured at the start of the day; groom with his groomsman &amp; the family prior to the ceremony. Ceremony coverage, yes to a ceremony that is less than an hour long or 2 hours long.Outdoor or Park Coverage with bridal party prior to reception, if you want to get snacks or ice cream in between, that will only go into the photo gallery Reception coverage for the intimate part of the day, arguably so. All eyes on the couple for entrances, dances, speeches, cake cutting &amp; more. I think you have it all structured with details, I'm just here to capture it all. And if something occurs I request only 85 for additional hours. Cheers*

I'm excited to share with you my personal top 5 picks for unique wedding venues in Chicago. These are places that truly stand out, far from the typical chain hotel venues. So, let's dive in, shall we?
&nbsp;
First on my list is the enchanting <a href="https://garfieldconservatory.org/about-us/room-rental-information/rental-rates/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Garfield Park Conservatory</a>. This botanical haven is a wonderland for nature-loving couples. What makes it special? Just imagine saying your vows amidst lush greenery and vibrant flowers, with the soft rustling of leaves as your wedding march. The best time to get married here? Absolutely any season, thanks to the controlled indoor climate. It's perfect for smaller, intimate weddings where the focus is on the couple and their love.
&nbsp;
Next up is the <a href="https://salvageone.com/events/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Salvage One</a>, a true hidden gem. It's an antique store turned wedding venue. What's so unique about it is its eclectic mix of vintage elements, creating an atmosphere that's both charming and utterly romantic. Fall and winter are ideal times to get married here, when the rustic interiors provide a warm contrast to the chill outside. It's best suited for couples who want a wedding with a twist, something memorable and out of the ordinary.
&nbsp;
The third venue that has caught my eye is the Gallery 1028. This loft-style venue is a blank canvas that can be transformed to reflect any couple's style or theme. With its exposed brick walls and high wooden ceilings, it exudes a cool, industrial vibe. Spring and summer weddings work really well here, with the natural light flooding in through the large windows. It's ideal for large weddings, offering ample space without losing the intimate feel.
&nbsp;
Fourth on my list is <a href="https://www.lpzoo.org/private-events/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cafe Brauer</a>. This historic venue is a Chicago landmark and offers stunning views of Lincoln Park and the city skyline. What makes it special is its blend of architectural elegance and natural beauty. Spring and fall are perfect seasons to get hitched here, when the surrounding park is in full bloom or flaunting autumnal hues. It's a great choice for couples wanting a wedding that's classy and timeless.
&nbsp;
Lastly, I'd like to mention <a href="https://www.ivyroomchicago.com/weddings/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Ivy Room</a>. Nestled in the heart of the city, this venue offers a lovely courtyard for outdoor ceremonies and a chic ballroom for receptions. It's a haven of tranquility amidst the urban hustle. The best time for a wedding here? Summer, without a doubt, when the courtyard is lush and the evenings are balmy. It's perfectly suited for couples who want the best of both worlds - an outdoor ceremony and a stylish indoor reception.
&nbsp;
So, there you have it - my top 5 picks for unique wedding venues in Chicago. Each with its own charm and appeal, they offer couples the chance to create a wedding that's truly their own. Till next time, happy wedding planning!

Make sure that all references to the self are in the first person singular, as I am the only photographer on my team. Please also ensure that there are no references to “our team” or “our photographer”. Instead, all writing should be coming directly from me. I would also like it to be quite down to earth and without lots of fluff and flowery language.
