What do you get when you mix a beautiful pair of high school sweethearts, New Years Eve and the worlds cutest beagle?

Dana and Matt’s gorgeous NYE wedding, that’s what.

These guys are simply adorable. Together for ten years and dog parents to the uber-cute beagle baby Addy, they truly tied the knot in style.

It had been one of those bizarrely warm Midwestern winters all through December (50 degrees on Christmas Day!) so hopes for a white wedding were dubious at best. But low and behold, we were treated to a fresh blanket of snow the morning of their wedding day and I was so excited for Dana! What winter bride doesn’t want that gorgeous, sparkling white magic in their wedding photos? It was the absolute perfect accessory to their venue (the lovely Hyatt Lodge in Oakbrook, just west of Chicago).

Dana’s details were fabulous, from the fur stole to her elegant, Old Hollywood gown, it’s fair to say that I was in photographer heaven from start to finish. And obviously their furbaby had to make an entrance down the aisle. Aaaaamazing.

Scroll on down to relive this incredible day with me, won’t you?!

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Jeske!
