Adrienne and Kevin | Jeremy Lawson Photography

Adrienne was getting ready at one of the coolest salons in Chicago, Strange Beauty Show.

Kevin was at the hotel taking care of business.

Back at the salon, Adrienne was getting her veil on.

A “Mommy Dearest” moment.

Soon to be…

Apparently, this is how her friend calms down. She was giving the bride some advice on doing so before they helped her in the wedding dress.

Their first official piece of mail as Mr. and Mrs. Adams!

It was another hot day in Chicago. We quickly made our way to the air conditioned Our Lady of Mt. Carmel in Lakeview.

We were greeted by the grooms mother and sister-in-law, Sarah, who also helped coordinate the day!

A “must” before heading down the aisle!

The amazing church.

She was hamming it up for me the entire ceremony.

Kevin checks out the long line of guests waiting for communion.

The newlyweds go hide from the guests before making their big exit.

We headed to Roscoe Village for some wedding party photos.

I love this shot of Adrienne.

The guys.

The girls.

One of the bridesmaids showing of her stylish kicks!

It was nice just taking a stroll through Roscoe Village.

A local stopped the couple to wish them well.

One of the groomsmen prevented the bride from getting drenched!

We ended up at one of the bridesmaids beautiful and very colorful home.

They had created the design from the wedding program in sidewalk chalk outside to surprise Adrienne.

We headed inside to cool off and enjoy the BBQ that awaited.

The bride held her Corona bouquet (not really) while the girls bustled her dress.

Some of the details at the house.

The delicious food from Smoque. SO good. Definitely check this place out if you haven’t already.

I am sneaky.

Adrienne and Kevin posed with their friends who introduced them!

And then it was BBQ time!

They ran upstairs to practice their first dance before we headed to the reception.

I had to get a shot of this before we left. Their friends drew on a photo frame and this was my favorite quote!

Adrienne finally had a chance to kick up her feet before the big party at Promontory Point.

Some decided to nap.

Others took in the view from Lake Shore Drive.

Adrienne was getting tons of wedding wishes on Facebook as we headed to the reception.

A few details from their reception site.

Food For Thought provided the delicious hors d’oeuvres.

The matchbooks for the sparklers that they lit at the end of the night.

Yes, that is the security guard that the city of Chicago provided for their reception. He was supposed to keep the locals from passing through their reception site. He was on the bench when I arrived and he was on the bench when I left. Let’s hope he does not read this post. =)

She was in love with that camera. Look who is in the background of this picture!

Adrienne’s mother passed away this year. I really love the photo that Adrienne gave me to use at the cocktail hour. It was nice to honor her mother’s memory.
