There is something about a North Shore summer night that just lands differently, if you’re from Chicago you just know.
This one started with the groom’s family opening their private estate for the celebration, which immediately grounded the entire experience. Personal, layered, and real from the start.
From there, the bride brought in her Moroccan heritage in the most beautiful way; Rich textures, warmth, and depth that guided the design without ever feeling literal. And she has such style too so she was a blast to collaborate with. ✨
We were intentional with this one, and the couple trusted the team we built 100%. On the list: sophisticated neutrals, a very residential feel, and a subtle Casablanca influence layered into a custom tent that needed to feel completely at home on the property. It was such a joy to be part of!
Nothing forced. Nothing overdone…Just a space that felt like them. A color palette that I’m still obsessed with, tons of cool texture everywhere, and just a hint of Casablanca influence to create mood, not theme. All of it unfolding inside the tent that truly upped the vibe to the next level, nestled in the trees of the estate. Delightful 🤩
The result was not about one look or one idea, but a vibe. It felt like them and reflected them and that’s the joy in what we do isn’t it?
For me, there is always something so special when a celebration starts with a place that already holds meaning. That’s why I think venue selection is so important! I just loved this one and am so happy and joyful to see this couple living their beautiful lives ✨
Thank you Soumaya and Winslow for your trust, and for having us be a small part of your beautiful lives 🥰
