Colleen & Richard’s Beautiful Rolling Green Country Club Wedding

Colleen and Richard met online in Spring 2024 and became best friends immediately. They love golfing together and taking little weekend trips, especially to Lake Geneva. They got engaged over St. Patrick's Day weekend in 2025 and a few weeks later found out they were expecting a baby boy. Their son Rory was born in December 2025 and is just the happiest little baby, Colleen and Richard are amazing parents and we were so excited to celebrate their wedding this May!

We were graced with gorgeous Spring weather for Colleen and Richard’s wedding, we could not have asked for a more perfect day! Spirits were high when we arrived at Colleen’s parents’ house for “getting ready” photos, Colleen looked so pretty thanks to her talented glam squad, we really loved that she chose to wear a sweet white bow in her hair rather than a veil! Once she was dressed Colleen met Richard out back for their first look and the celebration really began!

Once everyone was ready they loaded into their pretty white trolley to make their way to Rolling Green for photos before the ceremony. It’s always fun when we have the opportunity to take pictures at Rolling Green, we are so lucky to have such a beautiful venue virtually right in our backyard! Brianna and Anna were the perfect hosts as always and we had such a great time celebrating there!

One of our favorite moments from Colleen and Richard’s wedding was their “first look” with their son Rory. He lit up when he saw his beautiful Momma, and it was really cute to see him show off his tummy-time skills for pictures in his adorable little suit!

After we finished with photos we made our way to St. Emily’s for Colleen and Richard’s traditional Catholic ceremony. Colleen and Richard chose to have family and friends perform the music during their ceremony which made it that much more special. And once they were finished and pronounced husband and wife they had such happy smiles together as they walked back down the aisle!

When we returned to Rolling Green the room looked gorgeous thanks to the beautiful florals by our friends at Blooming Flowers. Everything was in place for the perfect night spent toasting the newlyweds, we loved being there to celebrate Colleen and Richard with their family and friends!

Congratulations Colleen and Richard (and Rory!), we love you and wish you a lifetime of happiness together!

Lexi & Jonathon’s Unforgettable Rolling Green Country Club Wedding

Lexi and Johnathon met in 2014 in college at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. They worked together as resident advisors at Nugent Hall and reconnected after graduation – the rest is history! Every now and again we are lucky enough . . .

Every now and again we are lucky enough to meet a couple that we want to hang out with outside of their wedding. We really love what we do and have met so many amazing people along the way. But there are some couples we just really want to share a drink or two with well after their big day. The week before Lexi and Johnathon’s wedding we ran into them while bowling at Beverly Lanes – they were there with their friends (and another Something Blue couple!) Kait and Mark – it was really fun to share a few laughs at the bowling alley and made us that much more excited for Lexi and Johnathon’s wedding!

I joined Lexi and Johnathon and their closest family and friends on Friday night at their rehearsal dinner at Nostimo – Johnathon proposed to Lexi on a tiny island in Greece so this was the perfect spot for a pre-wedding celebration! We had the best time enjoying Nostimo’s always-delicious food and hanging out, it was the perfect way to kick off their wedding weekend!

We had gorgeous Spring weather for Lexi and Johnathon’s wedding day, the sun was shining and the energy was perfect Conrad and I arrived at their house to take “getting ready” pictures of Lexi. Just as she was about to get dressed her Mom accidentally got a smudge of lipstick on Lexi’s Robert Bullock satin gown – Lexi took it completely in stride and waited calmly while everyone scrambled to get the stain out of her dress. What would have been an incredibly stressful moment for anyone else was just a minor blip for Lexi, she is cool as a cucumber and looked absolutely radiant once she got dressed.

We arrived fashionable late to St. Edna’s for the ceremony and found Johnathon patiently waiting on his best friend. Their traditional Catholic ceremony was a lovely celebration of their connection and commitment to one another under the eyes of God. After the ceremony we took some beautiful pictures inside at St. Edna’s before heading out for some fun with the newlyweds. Lexi and Johnathon always get a heart-shaped pizza from Barnaby’s on Valentine’s Day, so it only made sense to stop in for a slice on their wedding day! The team at Barnaby’s made us feel so welcome and it was just so much fun to photograph a bride and groom while they enjoyed pizza together in a pub! We made our way down Route 12 to Kahala Koa afterwards for more laughs and some hand-crafted tiki drinks at one of our favorite spots in Arlington Heights. We just can’t imagine a more FUN way to spend the afternoon on your wedding day than pizza and tiki drinks!

When we arrived at Rolling Green Country Club everything looked gorgeous thanks to Brianna and Anna’s efforts and the incredibly talented Pala Floral who created the most stunning and unique florals we have EVER seen. Guests were treated to the best tune by DJ Faithful Anchor who spun vinyl all night and gave the newlyweds the 45 he played during their first dance. Later that night everyone enjoyed Jeni’s Ice Cream while dancing the night away. And long after we clocked out we met up with Lexi and Johnathon at Eddie’s for a couple drinks before calling it a day, the first time we have ever partied with a couple after photographing their wedding! We love Lexi and Johnathon so much and are so thankful to have been a part of their unforgettable celebration!

Lexi and Johnathon asked us to also shoot some rolls of film on their wedding day. If you’ve been following along, we have been LOVING the film photography trend and are always excited to carry our 35mm cameras when shooting a wedding! These are some of our favorite scans from Lexi and Johnathon’s unforgettable wedding day:

Congratulations, Lexi and Johnathon, we love you and wish you a lifetime of happiness together!

Casey & Josh’s Lovely Rolling Green Country Club Wedding

Casey and Josh first met when they were in high school and decided to start dating before graduation. They felt connected enough to maintain a long-distance relationship while they were both in college and soon after both returned to Chicago where their love only continued to grow stronger. Before long they were engaged and planning to start their happily ever after with the most perfect celebration at Rolling Green Country Club.

I loved the conversations I had with Casey and Josh leading up to their wedding, they are just the most easy-going and loving couple. Their happiness shines through and I could not wait to celebrate their wedding with them! Conrad and Christy joined me at Rolling Green on that gorgeous sunny September day, Casey looked stunning thanks to the talented team at The Artistry Vibe, we loved her soft hair and makeup set against her sleek lace Madi Lane gown from Sew Bridal Shop. Casey and Josh chose not to see each other before their ceremony, so that moment when she walked down the aisle on her Dad’s arm was that much more special. After their ceremony Casey and Josh celebrated with an epic dip kiss in the aisle, and from that moment on they were all smiles together for the rest of the day!

We finished with family photos and then took Casey and Josh our on the beautiful course at Rolling Green for some pictures. It was just such a relaxing and chill vibe to be with these newlyweds, we could have spent hours taking pictures and video with them! Afterwards we settled into the reception space at Rolling Green for the most perfect night – we were treated to delicious food, thoughtful toasts and great dancing to celebrate the newlyweds. It was the perfect day and we were so happy to be a part of it!
