Old Baldy & Mojo’s | Beth & Tom | November 5th, 2016
After speaking with Tom and Beth for the first time, I knew they were going to be a fun couple to work with. Since they live in Chicago, this distance added a level of difficulty with planning their special day. Which included monthly skype calls and a carefully planned out trip to the island in the spring for tastings, hair/makeup trials, walking through their venues and finally meeting in person.Approximately 6 months after we started planning, I announced to them that I was expecting my first child. I reassured them that even though I would eventually be taking some maternity leave, that I would be reachable if they had any questions or issues at that time. I had a smooth and easy pregnancy, followed by a smooth labor and delivery, and I could not wait for Tom and Beth to meet my beautiful baby girl, Riley Teresa. Enough about me, lets talk wedding!!After a year and a half of planning, Tom and Beth’s wedding day was finally upon us! The weather was sunny and cool, with gusty winds from a front that had moved through in the early morning. We had planned for …read more
