Lilly & Eric made the decision to move up their wedding date due to Lilly’s father’s health failing. Close friends and family quickly flew into town for this celebration. The bride & groom’s BIG reception party will be held next year at the Lincoln Park Zoo.

The wedding day started off at the historic Waldorf Astoria Hotel in Chicago. The groom and his groomsmen were so amazing to spend the morning with. Eric was so excited for the time where he could see his bride but first, we got some getting ready shots in and around this beautiful hotel.

Even though their wedding day was moved up and plans were put into works as quickly as possible, the celebration was nothing less than spectacular and Lilly & Eric looked simply beautiful on their wedding day. I am especially in love with their gorgeous wedding portraits that were shot at Milton Olive Lee park.
