We’re thrilled to share Karen & James’ breathtaking Chicago wedding with you. The beautiful photographs by T&S Hughes Photography are the perfect complement to the dreamy wedding film we shared earlier today by Amor in Motion. This stunning celebration is filled with joyous moments, elegant style, and captivating decor set against the picturesque backdrop of Chicago.
First, the thoughtful travel theme that perfectly reflects the couple’s long-distance romance, which began in Australia and blossomed across the US. The chic navy globes, map favors, and soft blooms are beautifully intertwined with flickering candles, creating a romantic atmosphere that’s both stylish and intimate. Of course, the standout style is also worth noting – Karen’s exquisite floral hair slide, One Day gown, and delicate cover-up are simply captivating.

The Venue
Located in the heart of Chicago’s West Loop area, Room 1520 presented a unique blend of functionality and flexibility as our chosen venue for the special occasion. The open warehouse, boasting a spacious interior, proved to be an ideal setting for accommodating guests traveling from Australia for the wedding. Its central location allowed us to easily manage logistics and ensure that all attendees could participate without any significant travel hurdles.
Moreover, the blank canvas nature of the space enabled our team to unleash their creativity and tailor every aspect of the venue to perfectly complement the couple’s vision.
The Photography
Our dear friends Tony and Sharon are accomplished photographers who also happen to be fantastic human beings. Their exceptional interpersonal skills made our collaboration seamless, and their warm personalities created an enjoyable atmosphere throughout the entire process.
The Refreshments
Incorporating nods to our heritage, we featured American craft beers alongside Australian wines, creating a unique blend of flavors that celebrated our shared experiences.
The Honeymoon
Following our nuptials, we embarked on a three-week journey through Thailand and Vietnam, expertly blending relaxation with cultural immersion. This unique blend allowed us to unwind together, relive cherished moments from our special day, and take a momentous pause before embarking on the next chapter of life as newlyweds.
