Narrowing down my favorite photographs from Claudia and Tyler’s STUNNINGLY elegant Chicago Northshore wedding at Highland Park’s Exmoor Country Club is darn near impossible.

First things first: The Couple.

From the moment I met this gorgeous duo, I knew we were going to have an absolute blast working together and my instinct proved correct!

Venezuelan beauty Claudia met her native Chicagolander Tyler online. Six hours (yes…six!) into their first date, they knew there was something very special happening.

A couple of years and a sweet little pup named Callie later and Tyler popped the question while glamping in the Smoky Mountains (well done, sir!).

Now let’s chat all things their wedding day. Claudia has impeccably elegant taste and the incredible team she tasked with bringing her vision to life absolutely nailed it (special shout out goes to Stephanie of The Creative Planners here!).

Anna of Thistle & Plume Florist provided the most luscious white blooms offset by dewy greenery. The Exmoor Country Club was the perfect setting for the event. Held outside on the fabulous flagstone patio, not only was the ambiance killer but it also helped us all stay safe during these Covid crazy times.

I HIGHLY suggest you scroll all the way through this sneak peek to get lost in the beautiful world of C&T’s wedding day <3!
