I simply adore Meredith & Jeremy!!  I have been eagerly anticipating Meredith & Jeremy’s Chicago wedding ever since I met up with them for their engagement session. This day was so full laughter, tears and some SERIOUS Chicago-style celebrating! The ceremony was held at the magnificent St. Michael in Old Town Parish, followed by the reception at the grand Chicago Historical Society. Meredith & Jeremy- thanks for letting me share in such an amazing day!

chicago engagement shoot by joy marie…meredith + jeremy

I had the wonderful opportunity to meet up with Meredith & Jeremy in Chicago for their engagement session.  This was the first time that we met in person, but I felt like I was hanging out with old friends all day. And what a great city!   These two are such kind, radiant people, and as we walked around the streets downtown, it became apparent that I was in the presence of rock stars…they know EVERYONE!  I’m super excited for their Chicago wedding this summer at St. Michael in Old Town.  Thanks, Meredith & Jeremy for such an incredible day!! I can’t wait to see you guys again!!
