Deanna and Joe’s wedding day at RPM Events was a stunning celebration filled with love, laughter and timeless style. The day began at The Westin, where Deanna got ready in a sleek Rita Vinieris gown from Bella Bianca Bridal Couture. Paired with her classic Manolo Blahnik heels, she looked absolutely radiant. Meanwhile, Joe prepared in his sharp black tuxedo from The Black Tux, adding a polished touch to their elegant aesthetic. The flawless coordination throughout the day was thanks to the talented planner from Shannon Gail Events.

One of the most heartfelt moments of the day came during their first look along the Chicago River. Not only did Deanna and Joe share an emotional moment, but they also exchanged private vows, creating an unforgettable start to their day. Shortly afterward, their bridal party joined them for portraits. The ladies wore stunning long black Jenny Yoo gowns, while the men looked dapper in classic tuxedos.

Following the first look, the ceremony at Our Lady of the Holy Family Catholic Church was infused with joy and laughter. The energy in the room reflected the love surrounding Deanna and Joe, making this moment one to treasure.

Afterward, the celebration moved to RPM Events, a sleek and modern venue perfectly situated on the Chicago River. The ambiance was elevated by lush floral arrangements from Flowers for Dreams, which added a soft, romantic touch to the minimalist space. Additionally, ECBG Cake Studio provided a stunning and delicious cake that delighted everyone. Guests also enjoyed incredible food from RPM, which fueled an epic dance party led by The DJ Firm.

Throughout the day, I captured these special moments on both digital and a hint of film. The mix of mediums added a timeless touch to Deanna and Joe’s classic yet modern wedding vision.

Deanna and Joe, thank you for inviting me to document your incredible wedding day. Your joy, warmth, and love made this day truly unforgettable. It was an honor to capture these memories for you and your families!
