Kim and Craig - Coming in for a landing

Talk about a high flyin' first date: Craig treated Kim to a plane ride, and they've been on Cloud 9 ever since! On September 22, they landed softly at Sacred Heart Church in Melrose Park to exchange vows in front of family and friends. The church is significant to much of Kim's family who has seen many baptisms and weddings occur there over the years.

We made our way out to Kim and Craig's home in Carol Stream by their willow tree overlooking a lake for a phenomenal portrait session with assembled bridal party and family!

But the ride wasn't over yet! We ambled out to the historic Hotel Baker, situated on the Fox River, a favorite place for a night out on the town for Kim and Craig. Following more portraits by the riverfront, the party was on inside- complete with an electric dance floor- and we're not kidding!
