October Wedding at Chicago Botanic Garden | Sara & Asher

Sara and Asher, first and foremost, are some of the kindest people I've ever worked with. Their families are kind hearted. Their friends are kind hearted. This made for an amazing group of people gathered to celebrate.
The two were married at Chicago Botanic Garden In October 2021. They shared in a first look at the gardens overlooking the Great Basin along the English Walled Gardens. Their evening cocktail hour was also held in the English Walled Garden and the reception was McGinley Pavilion. The ceremony was uniquely placed along the walkway on the side of the English Garden. We took wedding party and bridal portraits near The Crescent, Esplanade, and the Bonsai Exhibition.
Sara and Asher's Jewish wedding highlighted many key traditions including a bedecken, ketubah signing, breaking of the glass, yichud, and hora dance. While these were the main traditions showcased below, their entire celebration was made up of their congregation & centered in their faith.
