Thalia & Tony’s late summer wedding at Redfield Estate in Glenview was truly something special. From the lush outdoor ceremony to the mariachi-led celebration, every moment felt joyful, romantic, and totally unique to them.
Their ceremony took place under the green canopy of The Grove Nature Preserve. Thalia & Tony exchanged vows in a beautiful outdoor ceremony. The weather was picture-perfect… Warm, sunny, and just right for a late summer wedding day. Thalia’s cathedral-length veil was breathtaking, flowing effortlessly behind her and adding the most romantic touch to portraits throughout the day.
After the ceremony, the celebration continued in such a fun and meaningful way. A mariachi band honored Thalia’s heritage and led everyone from the forest ceremony to cocktail hour on the lawn. Before guests sat down for dinner, the band played the couple and their families, filling the atmosphere with energy and joy. It was such a memorable part of the evening festivities.
The reception took place under the stars at Redfield Estate’s open-air pavilion – one of my favorite spots on a perfect summer wedding day. The design details were stunning, with florals that felt inspired by an English countryside garden. Wild wisteria, lush garden roses, cheerful zinnias, and delicate ranunculus filled the space with color and texture. To bring everything together, soft green vintage glassware brought a touch of charm to every table.
As the night continued, laughter and music filled the air, and it was clear just how loved Thalia & Tony are by their family and friends. Their wedding was a beautiful reflection of their story. These two are timeless, romantic, and full of heart.
To Thalia & Tony – thank you for trusting me to capture such a meaningful day. And to future couples dreaming of their Chicago wedding day – I’d love to connect!
