Morning Garden Wedding at Galleria Marchetti

Nabiha and Zohaib’s summer wedding at Galleria Marchetti was full of joy, elegance, and so many personal touches. As a Chicago photographer, I absolutely love this venue. The beautiful light, the impeccable architecture, and the incredible team make every wedding feel seamless and special.

These two are high school sweethearts, and their love story has taken them from Orlando to Washington, DC to Italy and back to Chicago. They chose to celebrate in Chicago to create a destination experience for their guests while honoring their hometown roots. I just love that sentiment!

The morning ceremony took place in the garden with a bright and joyful color palette. Nabiha wore a flowing, romantic gown paired with beautiful bows on her shoes. Bridesmaids and guests were treated to elegant parasols that provided shade from the summer sun, and each guest received a cone of petals for the recessional. The toss of petals was such a fun and lively moment that captured everyone’s excitement.

After the ceremony, we celebrated with portraits of the bride and groom in front of Galleria Marchetti’s iconic ivy wall. These images are full of personality, elegance, and so much love, perfectly capturing their morning celebration.

This blog post features their wedding morning festivities, but you can also check out their evening celebration here. From start to finish, Nabiha and Zohaib’s wedding was a beautiful, high-end celebration with thoughtful details, incredible florals, and a truly photogenic couple. Working with their planner, Priti Sweet Weddings, made the day even more seamless. I loved being part of this joyful celebration!

Nabiha and Zohaib, thank you for trusting me to capture your morning garden wedding. Your love and style made this day unforgettable. Cheers to the newlyweds!
