Looking for a nontraditional, unique or just a cool wedding venue in Chicago? Many restaurants and bars in Chicago allow private event rentals and make for a venue that your guests won’t forget and will absolutely have food and drinks that will impress! Here I’ll break down 10 of my favorite restaurants / bars I’ve photographed real weddings at. Everything from popular downtown clubs to a dim sum restaurant! This post features documentary style, candid wedding photography by Fuller Photo Co.
Highlighting one of the best wedding venues in Chicago, The Joinery. This natural light filled wedding venue is a wedding photographers dream. This post includes a ton of candid documentary style wedding photos showing all sorts of couples and guests enjoying different wedding celebrations at this Logan Square Chicago venue. From Jewish wedding ceremonies to intimate queer wedding receptions. The Joinery is a welcoming space to host your event and your photographer will likely love you for it!
Nontraditional, indie couple in vintage wedding wear get married at the unique Chicago wedding venue, Sleeping Village in Avondale. The ceremony took place in front of a colorful mural on the patio and the couple got ready at Blue Bird Inn and took portraits at Long Room Bar. The bride and groom's rock band played their own reception. This wedding was cool, funky and fun!
I’m incredibly biased because Charlotte is a friend from college but this is one of my favorite summer evening engagement sessions. I was so happy that Charlotte and Lauren traveled back to Chicago to spend the weekend and have this session with me before their wedding!
We hit up all of the best Lincoln Park spots with the most perfect soft summer evening lighting.
Charlotte and I studied photography together in college and it’s always such an honor to photograph for other photographers! Not only that but it was so special to take these trans affirming photos for my sweet friend and her to be wife.
Just wait until I finally get around to blogging their wedding day too!
