Jade and Joe celebrated a beautiful wedding day at River Roast in Chicago and the details were to die for! The pair served as the perfect summer wedding inspiration with their modern and elegant soiree. 

Their summer wedding had us reeling, as Jade and her bridesmaids opted for sweet, off the shoulder dresses instead of robes for getting ready. We loved how practical this choice was, but also how pretty the dresses photographed.

Jade wore an elegant and modern wedding gown. It had a fit and flare silhouette; perfect if you want to keep things simple and classic. The gorgeous sweetheart neckline, long train, and bouquet of fresh flowers kept the ensemble polished, clean and eternally chic. 

Joe kept things simple, too. He looked classically handsome in his tan shoes, red bowtie, and blue-grey suit. His groomsmen coordinated in similar palettes with matching red bowties. 

The couple had their first look on the River Walk and we have to say, Joe's reaction was adorable! His reaction to seeing Jade for the first time was aptly captured by their Chicago wedding photographer. This kind of moment will never fail to give us butterflies!

Their downtown wedding featured multiple occasions where the photographer photographed the wedding party. We loved the group photos where the happy couple was surrounded by their close family and friends. Our favorite pick from the photos would have to be the ones capturing the blue tones of the city skyline. Reflected back in the shades worn by the bridesmaids and groomsmen, the composition was so beautiful!

Photographed near River Roast, the couple and their photographer took full advantage of what the city had to offer. A nearby park gave the couple a serene and natural background, while the cities most iconic buildings and structures lent the modern flair the couple was after. 

The city of Chicago was the couple's playground for photography and we loved how it turned into great summer wedding inspiration!
