French Market Wedding at Galleria Marchetti by Ashley Biess Photography

When a wedding starts off with a gown as gorgeous as this Vera Wang stunner, you just know the rest is going to be good. And let me just say that the gown is just the beginning of the pretty sitting in these lovely images from Ashley Biess Photography. It’s pure Chicago perfection coordinated by LK Events, and the perfect way to send you dancing into the weekend. See it all here.

From Ashley Biess PhotographyThere was just SO much pretty at this August affair! The happy couple celebrated their wedding at the always-beautiful Galleria Marchetti. Audrey wore a stunning Vera Wang gown, adorned with gold sequins, as she walked down the aisle at the sunny, garden ceremony. Her bridesmaids wore ruffled lilac dresses that flowed effortlessly in the wind. To go along with the rustic, European and garden style of the venue, the couple decided to have a French Market themed wedding. Instead of choosing one or two wedding colors, Audrey and Pat’s decor highlighted an array of different colors, ranging from purples, pinks, reds, blues, greens and whites. The combination was dreamy and perfect with their garden inspiration. At the reception, guests found their escort cards at a beautifully decorated table that was inspired by a French flower cart. The reception space was candle-lit and tables were decorated with eclectic metallic and jewel toned candles and jars full of flowers. After dinner, guests were on their feet all night long dancing and celebrating with the newlyweds. It was a beautiful day from start to finish!
