Intimate & modern Chicago Rooftop Wedding Inspiration

DABBLE ME THIS and JENNA MARIE PHOTOGRAPHY pooled their resources together and worked with some of Chicago’s top wedding vendors to create an inspirational wedding shoot that was was not only romantic but would showcase the Chicago’s stunning skyline. Set during the golden hour in the heart of downtown Chicago the AMBASSADOR CHICAGO was chosen for its Quintessential rooftop skyline. It provided the team with the perfect spot for an intimate wedding with a breathtaking view over this city of theirs.

Soft dusty blue, blush and tan with a hint of gold were used as the main colour palette. Stationery by KELSEY MALIE CALLIGRAPHY set the tone for the cake design by ELYSIA ROOT CAKES and florals by EXQUISITE DESIGNS – whose stunning creations incorporated garden roses, thistles and a king protea. Giving it an overall timeless and romantic appeal. “The icing on the cake for the inspirational wedding was working with one of our favourite dress designers CAROL HANNAH to provide a soft whimsical wedding dress that tied all the details of the wedding back together.“

Chicago wedding make-up artists NIKA VAUGHAN BRIDAL ARTISTS created a beautifully soft and romantic bridal look that is as timeless as it is modern.
