The sole groom on here, back from our wedding at the RPDC.  Lisa and I were married on November 30th on the beach in front of the gazebo.  We ended up going with the Mayan Ceremony, which turned out to be UNREAL!  We only invited 9 to our wedding, but about 100 or gathered around the beach to watch.  It was incredible!

 

We weren't really fussy about many of the details, so our planning process just went with the flow.  I think that helped keep the stress down.  In the end though, everything our expectations, and then some.  Zulma was our wedding coordinator, and our reception was at El Mediterraneo.  The staff at El Mediterraneo are incredible, and I would highly recommend this for anyones semi private reception.  Its also the coolest temperature wise, which was refreshing after a day in dress pants.  We used Sascha Gluck as our photographer, and for those who are considering him - please BOOK HIM.  He is polite, easy going, and though we haven't seen the final product yet, the shots he gave us a sneak peak at were incredible.  As I get more photos, I will try to post them along with a review.

 

In the meantime, if you ladies have any questions, I will do my best to answer them!

 

MIKE.

photog I can give you his info, I know there a couple of you on here.

 

I know there is a thread on here for engagment pics, but I always like to share with you girls.

 

Here are a few of my favorites:

Chicagobride2011:

Thanks for sharing your e-pics. They look great! I'll be posting my planning thread soon- I get married in 2 weeks and I'm also from Chicago. I got my Paloma Blanca dress from a small boutique in Hinsdale but most of my friends got their bridal dresses from A L'Amour in Barrington and they loved it. So happy we got our first beautiful snow fall of the year this morning...
