Amannda and Matt had the most wonderful Art Institute of Chicago wedding. From the start of their relationship, they knew they had found the one - they told one another they were going to get married on the second date. On their wedding day, Amannda and Matt had family from all over the world come to celebrate their wedding day including Amannda's family from the Philippines!
The start of the day was full of absolute joy while Amannda and Matt during getting ready. Matt and Amannda's moms were just the best of friends and couldn't contain their joy and laughter while they got ready for their kid's wedding day. Amannda incorporated her grandmother's intricately beautiful ring as her something blue. Be sure to watch in 1080p (click the gear on the bottom right of the video).
Their wedding ceremony was at the stunning and iconic St. Clement's Catholic Church in the Lincoln Park neighborhood. And their wedding reception ended up at the School of the Art Institute. With it's old time glam, it was the perfect setting for this gorgeous wedding.
But the real highlight of this wedding was the speeches given by everyone at the wedding. It was clear that everyone knew from the start that Amannda and Matt were made for one another. Each person talked about how they could tell that something was different with this relationship and they were so excited that the wedding day was finally here. Matt's father passed away unexpectedly before he meet Amannda but his presence was still in the room through the stories told. Matt told Amannda, "if my dad would have met you, he would have loved you". It was a beautiful sentiment on such a joy-filled day.
We wish that we could relive this Art Institute of Chicago wedding day over and over again. It was such a testament to love and the love of family! Cheers to Amannda and Matt!
