Kristin and Mario had the picture perfect wedding at Fishermen’s Inn in Elburn, IL.  It was beautifully rustic and full of charm and natural light.  Kristin’s high necked crepe gown was created by Stella York and fit her like a dream!

Check out their amazing photos below!

Kristin’s dress was really bringing sexy back! The details of her dress couldn’t be more breathtaking!

Kristin’s bridesmaids were in matching Sorella Vita styles. The shape and color complimented each and every girl!

The kiss everyone talked about!! Their love is totally infectious!!

Props to Kristin’s bridesmaids on THE PERFECT BUSTLE! You can barely tell it was bustled at all! Great job girls!

Such a tender moment before her big day!

This dress couldn’t have fit Kristin’ shape, style and personality better! She looks absolutely flawless from all angles.

So cute! We love the cake topper!

Check out these amazingly beautiful photos from Nicole & Tim’s amazing fall wedding.  Their venue was The Chateau Busche in Alsip, IL which allowed for the perfect, feminine backdrop for these amazing pictures.

Nicole came to us with a very laid back approach to her wedding dress.She wanted to feel comfortable above all and shopping with her was a complete hoot! Any dress that was slightly uncomfortable was just never going to be “The One”! When we landed on this elegant and classic Essense of Australia off the shoulder a-line, we knew we were in business! It was the perfect balance of timeless beauty and comfort!

In true comfort fashion, Nicole chose to wear the adorable sparkly Kate Spade Keds!! Now available at The Crystal Bride! They were comfortable from the beginning to the end of the day!!

The couple gave a personal shout out to The Matt Steadman Band / Ring of Music Orchestra that played their reception – they felt they were beyond amazing!!

Even their pup got in on the formal wear!! Soo Cute!!!

You can totally see the love between these two!

The bridal party was another fun part of Nicole’s wedding process with us at The Crystal Bride.  We went back and fourth with the color a couple of times before we landed on the perfect shade of aubergine by Sorrella Vita.  We even got matching bow ties for the groomsmen to make sure we stayed with the same tone across the board.

Congratulations to you both! It was such a pleasure getting a chance to work with you and help you find the perfect dress and outfit your bridal party.  We wish you both all the love in the world as you take this next step together.
