Lisa+Pat's intimate wedding was lovely in every way. 

Their day started in Lincoln Park where they prepared for their ceremony with a handful of their closest friends. Instead of a first look, the two exchanged letters before hand and shared a "first touch" and prayer by the Church's lovely wooden doors. 

Those who could not attend showed up in sweet ways, facetiming during their ceremony and calling in during their "reception." 

After a short + sweet ceremony we headed out to a park in the suburbs to share a first dance by the lake (bluetooth speakers are always a good idea on wedding days!) and enjoy the afternoon until the rain clouds made their way to Chicago.
