KACIE + JARED’S CHICAGO WEDDING WEEKEND

A weekend of love, fun, and style at Kacie and Jared's wedding weekend in the heart of Chicago.

The Welcome Party

Kacie and Jared kicked off their wedding festivities in style at River Roast. The welcome party was the perfect icebreaker, setting the stage for an unforgettable weekend. Now, here's the kicker – they arrived at the River Roast in a pink boat. Yep, you heard that right. It was the summer of Barbie, after all! The welcome party with stunning Chicago River views was all about laughter, delicious food, and catching up with loved ones. It got everyone in the mood for the main event.

The Wedding Day

The big day was held at The Kimpton Gray Hotel downtown. It was all about sophistication and elegance mixed with Nancy Meyers rom-com inspired details. Kacie and Jared added their personal touch to every aspect of the wedding. From custom stationery to carefully chosen decorations, you could feel their love story and see their impeccable taste in every detail. After wandering the city with their wedding party and exploring the Chicago Board of Trade and The Rookery, they made their way back to the Kimpton Gray to say “I do.” As the sun set over Chicago, the party continued at Boleo, where guests danced the night away under the stars. From the epic pink boat entrance to the heartfelt ceremony at The Kimpton Gray Hotel and the rooftop dance party at Boleo, it was a weekend filled with laughter, joy, and unforgettable memories.
