Labor Day Weekend 2023, especially September 3rd, was unforgettable for Amanda and Matt as they tied the knot at the Oak Brook Tennis & Bath Club. Unlike many spending the extended weekend relaxing, this couple and their lively entourage made it a day of elegance peppered with delightful shenanigans under a perfect Sunday sky.

The day’s spark ignited at Le Méridien in Oakbrook with Amanda and her bridesmaids enjoying giggles and heartfelt toasts, while two floors up, Matt and his groomsmen captured some cool, candid shots. The morning buzzed with excitement, perfectly setting the stage for the day ahead.

Their emotional journey continued at Mayslake Forest Preserve, capturing moments of laughter and solemnity with the bridesmaids before Amanda and Matt’s private First Look. Here, they exchanged personal vows, an intimate moment marked by tears and tender touches, capturing their deep commitment.

At the Tennis & Bath Club, the vibrant energy surged as they snapped playful bridal party shots amidst the club’s picturesque settings. The ceremony itself was a dream—short, sweet, and beautifully simple by the club’s serene pond, leaving guests visibly moved.

Post-ceremony, the newlyweds and their families struck a balance between silly and serious in their portraits, crafting new memories filled with laughter and affection. These moments transitioned smoothly into a spirited reception, where traditional entrances made way for a boisterous welcoming by the groomsmen and bridesmaids, setting the stage for Amanda and Matt’s grand entry.

Their reception was a whirlwind of emotions, from uproarious speeches recounting their early days to poignant toasts that brought tears and laughter. A brief escape for twilight photos by the pond provided a quiet interlude before they returned for their spotlighted First Dance, encapsulating their love as all eyes were on them.

The celebration hit a crescendo with energetic dances and a DJ session by the couple, ensuring the night was nothing short of legendary. Amanda and Matt’s wedding was a perfect blend of grace and merriment, celebrated beautifully by everyone who was part of their special day.
