James and Morgan wanted their wedding day to be different, and they achieved just that by hosting an evening ceremony with a reception to follow at The Best Place at the Historic Pabst Brewery. It was a romantic and dim-lit day, a perfect match to their classic black and white themed wedding. She unzipped her gown and jaws dropped to the floor! It was so elegant, so high fashion and the sleeves were an amazing addition to their late October wedding day. Everything looked so sharp and timeless.

You may remember LeeRoy from their engagement photos, but he played one special role on their wedding day! Not only was there while the gals got ready, but he even had a hand (or leash 😉 ) in walking Morgan down the aisle. Their wedding day was everything that they hoped it would be, both stylistically and fantastically fun. Whenever we chatted about their day, they admitted that they just really wanted it to be a big party and celebration with their family and friends. They wanted to enjoy all of their favorite people being in one space, and enjoy saying “I do” to their very favorite person. All of these things happened and we couldn’t have felt more joy for the newlyweds! So much love for you two!
