Charming Loyola University Wedding Chicago // Megan + Steve

Megan + Steve’s Loyola University wedding was a sentimental walk through memory lane.

Because their love story began at Loyola, it was so meaningful that they said their I do’s at the beautiful Madonna della strada chapel. They walked all over the campus as students and now they walk hand in hand as husband and wife at their Loyola University wedding.

The Madonna della strada is such a beautiful chapel! Overlooking Lake Michigan, the location is perfect for wedding photos. With the bright white marble and gold accents, the chapel looks almost greek. After their Loyola University wedding ceremony, we were excited for more wedding photos around the campus. Our time was cut a little short when the rain came pouring down.

At their Galleria Marchetti wedding reception, guests noshed on appetizers and sipped yummy cocktails. All the toasters brought the house down! Megan’s dad peppered a sweet sentimental toast with bits of humor. Her maid of honor gave tribute to her front line worker friend for her dedication in the last year. And the most humorous moment of the evening went to Steve’s best man who pulled out a poster sized photo of the groom. Steve was channeling his inner European, sporting a fedora while studying abroad.
