An Associate Wedding by Cassie at Gaelic Park Chicago: Maggie & Alex

Associates

Maggie & Alex got married this past weekend and it was truly a beautiful day. When I asked Cassie her favorite memories from the day, this is what she had to say…

1. Private First Dance  
While I was photographing the reception details, Maggie and Alex popped into the room and decided to practice their first dance. It was SO sweet! Watching the two of them dance together for the first time before any of their guests arrived felt so special and intimate. I actually pulled out my phone and recorded a video of them—it was too precious not to capture! I made sure to send it to Maggie on Sunday, and she loved it.  

2. First Touch
The first touch between Maggie and Alex was such a sweet moment. Hearing them tell each other how much they love one another before seeing each other for the first time on their wedding day was just so beautiful. Their words to each other were so heartfelt, and it really set the tone for the rest of the day. It was a quiet moment of connection that made their love feel even more real and special.  

3. November Weather 
The weather was such a blessing! While it was a little brisk in the 50s, the day still felt absolutely beautiful. And when the sun popped out just in time for sunset portraits at the church, it diffused perfectly, casting such a soft, warm glow. It was a perfect touch to an already perfect day.

Maggie & Alex, thank you so much for having us. : ) We had a ton of fun with both of you and I just love all the shots that Cassie and the RWP Team got.
