Leah + Steve’s Galleria Marchetti wedding was definitely not a typical New Year’s Eve celebration.
Even before their engagement, Leah and Steve knew they wanted a New Year’s Eve wedding. Since the night is usually anticlimactic, they thought they’d give their friends and family something else to celebrate.
“Love is a friendship that has caught fire. Steve, you add fire to her sparkle.”
They said their I do’s at Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Leah’s hometown of Glenview and later took photos in front of Wrigley Field as a nod to Steve’s Cubs fandom.
Their black-tie reception at their Galleria Marchetti wedding was an elegant all-white affair. With metallic accents, from the twinkling globe chandeliers to the gold embellishments on their five-tiered cake. Because they wanted a big celebration, they had giant balloons and confetti to pop on the dance floor at midnight.
