Sasha & Greg

Lincoln park honeycomb wedding

What began as a serendipitous meeting in a lively Irish pub turned into a love story that led to their Lincoln Park honeycomb wedding. While vacationing in Ireland, Greg spotted Sasha across a bustling bar and knew he had to meet her. Their instant connection was undeniable—and even Greg’s friends helped keep the conversation going by ensuring Sasha wasn’t swept away by other admirers.

Because they lived on opposite coasts, their new romance turned into long distance. Sasha was a California girl and Greg a midwest guy. But distance was no match for what they had found. Soon, Sasha moved to the windy City to start their life together. With a new condo, an adorable dog, and years of shared memories ahead, all that was left was to plan the perfect wedding.

Their initial idea was a quiet, intimate elopement. But love like theirs can’t be kept small for long. What started as “just a few” guests turned into a beautiful, joy-filled Lincoln Park honeycomb wedding.

Under the striking geometric canopy of the honeycomb, surrounded by the peaceful South Pond Nature Boardwalk, Sasha made her way down the winding path to meet Greg. With the sunlight filtering through the archways as guests watched her walk toward her future. Greg’s face said it all – complete awe that this incredible woman was about to become his wife. Their heartfelt vows, exchanged beneath the famous Honeycomb structure, made the ceremony unforgettable for everyone there.

Perched at the branch of the river, Gibson’s Italia has a stunning view of the river. Before joining the party, Sasha and Greg paused for golden-hour photos along the Fulton Street Bridge and the riverfront, soaking in the cityscape as the sun dipped behind the skyline.

The rooftop reception at Gibsons Italia was pure magic. With panoramic views of the river and city lights twinkling all around, guests toasted to love, friendship, and unforgettable memories. Cocktails flowed, the rooftop buzzed with energy, and Sasha and Greg danced the night away under the stars. From heartfelt conversations to high-energy dancing, it was the perfect Chicago celebration.
