My first wedding of 2024 was an amazing one! On February 9th, I found myself at the Admiral Room for Reylea and Jeremy’s wedding. I’ll start by saying, they’re cool. As soon as you meet them, you know you could hang out with them and have a good time. And they were both very chill considering it was their wedding day. They were hanging out together, already having a great time, as guests filled in the space. And I mean filled in because everyone wanted to see these two get married! After chatting with both of them, I was watching Jer start to look a little nervous, walking back and forth, really checking to make sure things were ok. It was very cute and that’s when I know it’s time to start! I stood up with Jer as Rey made her way out, and she just looked so beautiful that you could forget you just saw her. They laughed together and got a little teary eyed as they shared their very personal and hilarious vows. It was truly a perfect moment that by the time they were kissing, everyone in the audience was so jazzed it was a huge applause.
Congratulations Jeremy and Reylea. You were obviously made for each other and I wish you a lifetime full of laughter and love.

Congratulations Maryna & Adam!!!

It’s always a shock when it arrives, but December 15th was my last wedding of 2023! And I was lucky enough to spend it at the Timberlodge at Arrowhead for Maryna and Adam’s wedding! Firstly, they are adorable. Their energy and excitement was off the charts and their space looked perfect and really reflected them. Between a charcuterie wall, blankets for guests in case they get chilly, and a stunning picture posing wall, it couldn’t have been better. And that was before the ceremony even started! Boy was I in for a surprise. Because after they made their way down the aisle to each other, it was just wonderful. The smiles, the tears, the vows!!! It was so challenging to make it through listening to both of them without crying myself. And soon enough they were kissing and we were all shouting “Mazel Tov!,” as Adam stomped the glass in front of them both. Congratulations Adam and Maryna. I think you’ve always known you’d end up together and I’m so happy that this is how I got to end my year. Best wishes always.

Congratulations Megan & Morgan!!!

December 9th was a ton of fun at The Sterling at Arrowhead. It’s was my second to last wedding and I was jazzed to spend it with Megan and Morgan. Firstly, they are adorable. Secondly, they told me that if I was a cult leader they would absolutely, without hesitation follow me, so how can I not love them?! 😂
It looked beautiful inside and guests were excitedly picking out their unique mugs as wedding favors. I mean, it was no joke. People were claiming theirs and taking it to their table before anyone could grab it. It was a really fun idea that matched their signature pet cocktails. This is a couple that would more often than not be playing Fortnite instead of being all dressed up for a party, but you could tell that made this day extra special. They truly beamed at each other through the entire ceremony, stashing away love letters and a bottle of wine for their first anniversary, and couldn’t have kissed each other any harder! Congratulations Morgan and Megan! It was such a pleasure meeting your both and when I start my cult in the woods, I know who to reach out to first. Much love!

Congratulations Stephanie & Scott!!!

I love Pearl Street weddings because I think the space inside is beautiful, and that proved true once again on December 2nd for Stephanie and Scott’s wedding. Not to mention, it was an 11:00am brunch wedding which I’m obsessed with, so it couldn’t have felt more perfect. Add in one of the cutest cakes ever and seeing this beautiful, loving couple together, and there was nowhere else I’d have rather been. The happy couple was ready to get the show on the road after sharing their vows to each other privately, so after their many guests grabbed their seats, we began, with Stephanie and Scott smiling as they looked into each others eyes. We had a small hiccup at the alter, which just lead us and the guests to laugh and kept the ceremony real. Soon enough, they were kissing and I was announcing them as husband and wife! Congratulations Scott and Stephanie! It was such a pleasure to start my day with you and I wish you a lifetime of happiness!

Congratulations Marissa & Eric!!!

Ok I’m just gonna say, Marissa and Eric are cool, Thin Man Brewery is cool, and this whole darn wedding was cool as heck! Marissa and Eric are such a well matched pair, they planned their wedding around the moon cycle, with matching accessories to boot. These are my kind of people. When I arrived at the wedding, they were hanging out with guests, keeping things very loose and casual. Sometimes I then think the couple isn’t nervous, but that definitely wasn’t the case. Once they were in front of their friends and family, holding hands and being vulnerable in a lovely way, I could see the nerves in Marissa’s eyes and in Eric’s nervous act of pushing up his glasses over and over. But we managed to laugh together and get through their vows and light a unity candle symbolising their relationship and their united light. It was a very special moment and even more so when it was time to kiss as husband and wife. Congratulations Eric and Marissa! It was truly my pleasure meeting both of you and getting to share in such a wonderful moment.

Congratulations Hannah & James!!!

November 11th was a chilly, early winter day, but that didn’t stop Hannah and James from having the wedding of their dreams outside at The Fox Valley Club. They are outdoorsy people, so I think they were fine while the rest of us were wimps 😂. But luckily, once we were all outside together, sharing in a beautiful moment, no one seemed to mind too much anymore. And I think that really has to do with what a perfect couple Hannah and James are. They looked so beautiful standing side by side, smiling and laughing, sharing their vows, and adding soil and water to a small sapling that they would be taking home to plant in their yard and watch grow big and tall over the years of their happy marriage. That’s all I could think of when they grabbed each other for a huge kiss and I pronounced them husband and wife! Congratulations James and Hannah! I know you have a happy future of summiting mountains and enjoying every moment together.

Congratulations Melissa & Grace!!!

I can’t get into what this wedding meant to me without getting teared up as I write, so I’m just going to put that I’ve known Melissa a long time, watched her grow up, watched her struggle and change, watched her fall in love, and then got to share in that moment and marry her to a super cool and loving human. What a day November 10th was! Although it was cold. Outdoor November weddings are a wild idea, and while it was so beautiful at Griffis Sculpture Park, it was cold 😂
I arrived to see my (for all intents and purposes) little sister Melissa, getting ready to walk down the aisle and stand beside Grace as they read their beautiful, personal written vows. And I got to tease her a lot in the ceremony, so big win for me! Really though, it was an honor to bring two people together and it reminded me how lucky I am to know the people I know, and to get to share in these moments. Congratulations Grace and Melissa! It was a perfect day for the two of you, and I’m so happy I get to continue to watch your love grow. Love, Big Sis.

Congratulations Alana & Tom!!!

November 4th I found myself at Samuel’s Grande Manor for Alana and Tom’s wedding. I found them both looking stunning, and excitedly ready to get going. Some weddings you get a vibe that the party after is gonna be awesome, and this was one of them! It was such a good energy in the room. I stood up front with Tom as we watched Alana make her way in, tears already forming even though they had been hanging out together just moments before. You can’t underestimate what it feels like walking up that aisle looking at your love, or being the one standing there watching them walk towards you. When they were face to face they smiled and I talked about their love until they shared in a sand ceremony, pouring different colored sand together to show that they were going to be as inseparable as the sand, and before you knew it, they were kissing as husband and wife! Congratulations Tom and Alana! I can already tell how much happiness and joy will be in your future. Much love!

Congratulations Anabelle & Nick!!!

Ok, October 28th was magical. I was in East Aurora, and there were people walking about shopping and getting coffee in big sweaters and knit hats, enjoying the orange leaves blowing around them. It doesn’t get better than that. Or does it? Only if you were one of the lucky ones to be at The Bank for Anabelle and Nick’s wedding! And yes, it’s called The Bank because it was a bank! Vaults and all included. I found Anabelle and Nick getting their picture taken with family, people standing around enjoying the beautiful day. Their ceremony was outside in a beautiful courtyard and it was a lovely moment as they shared their vows and held hands and looked as in love as any couple could. What an eruption as I pronounced them husband and wife! Congratulations Nick and Anabelle! It was such a wonderful moment I got to share with the two of you and I wish you so much future happiness.
