Jill and Seth’s Downtown Wedding | Chicago, IL
With the Chicago skyline as their witness and the Swissotel as their stage, Jill and Seth’s wedding unfolded like a dream.
The day was filled with the kind of moments that make you stop and soak it all in—like their first dance at golden hour, with the city lights twinkling behind them, or the heartfelt toasts that had everyone laughing and tearing up in equal measure.
We knew from the start that this celebration would be all about capturing the magic of the city and the deep connection between these two incredible people.
The Sparkle of the City
From our first conversation, we knew Jill and Seth wanted a day that felt both elegant and deeply personal. They envisioned a celebration that blended timeless romance with the electric energy of downtown Chicago. Every vendor was chosen with intention, each one a partner in bringing this romantic, city-chic vision to life.
Southside Blooms crafted floral arrangements that added a layer of soft, organic beauty to the modern space.
Groove is in the Heart DJs curated the perfect soundtrack, creating an atmosphere that felt both exciting and wonderfully intimate.
And behind the lens, Molly Kate Photography and Clickago Media Co. were there to capture the big moments, and the small, in-between ones that make wedding day memories an heirloom you can hold, watch, and relive over and over again.
A First Dance for the Books
As the sun began to set, the entire day seemed to pause for one perfect moment. Jill and Seth stepped onto the dance floor for their first dance, and just as they did, the sky outside transformed. A warm, golden glow washed over the city, and the skyline began to sparkle just for them.
In that moment, it was easy to see why they chose this spot. With the heart of Chicago as their backdrop, nothing else mattered. It was just the two of them, wrapped up in the magic of it all. These are the moments we live for as planners.
"We hired Heirloom Event Company to help coordinate our recent wedding and it was worth every penny. Haylie is super organized, kind, understanding, and easy-going. All of those attributes are crucial for someone who plans events! Haylie went above and beyond for us. She is a rockstar and if you are debating whether to go with Heirloom or another planner for ANY event, don't hesitate!"
Jill, The Bride
This is exactly what we strive for with every couple we work with. Building that connection and trust is everything. Hearing from Jill after the wedding truly meant the world to us.
