Olive Park Skyline Elopement : Christa + Nick 4/12/19
If you’ve ever been on the site you’ve seen at least a couple photos from this elopement! It was my first of the year out at Olive Park for 2019. It was a beautiful sunny day, but chilly and very windy! They were troopers though and didn’t let it phase them.
I met them at Thompson Hotel for a first look and then we hopped into an amazing Rolls Royce (I forget the year) . When they told me there were renting it for the day I assumed they meant like a vintage car with driver. It was only about 2 days before when I realized that Nick actually got to drive the car! It was an incredibly sweet ride. We got some looks driving around town for sure!
We headed out to their ceremony at Olive Park which included vows that brought us all to tears at one point! On the way there we realized we had forgotten the flowers at the hotel so we circled back. I don’t think anyone was upset to spend a little more time in the car. We then headed to LaSalle Bridge and ended out by Alder Planetarium for some skyline photos with the car.
It was a great day all around! Here are some favorites!
