Tucked beneath the sculptural pines of the Japanese Ordway Gardens at Como Zoo & Conservatory, A & R’s intimate wedding ceremony was a heartfelt celebration of love, style, and chosen family. With just a few handfuls of loved ones present, the couple exchanged vows amidst a golden sunset, surrounded by quiet beauty and personal meaning — including A’s sister officiating and her late brother-in-law’s daughter standing proudly as their flower girl. A wore not one but two whimsical Sister Jane dresses, paired with playful Betsy Johnson heels, while R stunned in a custom forest green Sartoro suit. Every detail spoke to their bond—intentional, expressive, and unforgettable.
