On their wedding day, I met Mary at her childhood home. Surrounded by family and childhood memories, I could feel the excitement and anticipation. Mary glowed - comfortable in the home she had grown up in - excited to build a life and a new home with Adam. After Mary dressed, we made our way over to Lincoln Park Conservatory. The room looked amazing and Adam waited with a big smile, his soft voice saying "I can't wait to see her.”

After the ceremony, the three of us walked to Salvatore’s for their reception. Mary's mom sang a beautiful song, the speeches captivated everyone, and the celebration of their new life began.
