I started off Elle & Alex’s wedding day with the ladies getting ready in the lovely bride room while the guys got ready in the basement of the magical Copperstone Inn. After hair and makeup were finished, we headed over to the queens room for getting into dresses and then a beautiful first look between Elle and her father. After they had enjoyed their first look on the balcony of the Copperstone Inn, it was time for Elle and Alex to have their first look. Thankfully the rain and wind held off for a few minutes so we could have their first look outside!

With a ceremony lit by the elegant chandeliers of the Pavilion, Elle and Alex pledged their love to one another surrounded by friends and family. The room was then flipped for the reception while the guests and wedding party enjoyed cocktails and hors d’oeuvres catered by Henrici’s before the speeches and dancing began. Here is a sneak peek into their wedding day at The Pavilion at Orchard Ridge Farms in Rockton, Illinois!
