Gabby & Sam
Gabby and Sam’s wedding day is the epitome of classic Chicago elegance. Gabby selected a gorgeous Monique Lhuillier gown from Ultimate Bride for their traditional ceremony at Holy Name Cathedral, and after portraits with their furbaby Badger and in the picturesque Art Institute gardens, the couple and their guests headed to the Hilton Chicago for a spectacular reception designed by Erin McDonald, featuring stunning lighting by Frost Chicago. Gabby and her four sisters continued a 15-year tradition of a choreographed dance, which was certainly one of the most memorable moments in an absolutely epic day! Wedding planning by Ali Phillips of Engaging Events by Ali, with imagery by Averyhouse and cinematography by Poetic Productions.
Ali PhillipsI have known Gabby since she was 11 years old when I planned her oldest sister Jessica’s wedding and she was a bridesmaids in that wedding. Fast forward 15 years and I planned all 4 of her sister’s weddings. Sending Gabby down the aisle to marry Sam was one of the proudest and most heartfelt moments of my 21 year career as a wedding planner! In the words of Gabby, “Let’s go”!!!!
