A French Summer Wedding

This weekend I had the pleasure of attending a friend’s wedding in downtown Chicago. The ceremony took place in a gorgeous, restored church in the heart of the city, followed by a reception in a lighted, outdoor tent. Two days later the bride and groom headed off to France for two weeks in the beautiful city of Paris and the French Riviera. And with a French-themed honeymoon planned, it was easy to spot the French influence in the wedding reception.
