Chicago is a city known for its comedy. On any given night, there are so many opportunities for seeing sketch, improv, stand-up, and music. Well, imagine combining the world of improv with the emotions of the wedding day — two scenarios where anything can happen! That was the setting for Erin & Alex’s wedding at Revolution Brewery. These two comedic actors were long time friends who fell head over heels for each other, and their history and journey together just added to the intensity of the day’s emotion. Add in a close-knit circle of artist friends, and witness all of the personality that makes us love our job so much! This is our first wedding where the best man sang his toast!
Actors know how to tell a story, and Erin & Alex had details throughout their day that showcased their past, and hinted at all that is yet to come. The postcard on the groom’s gift was a reprint of a poster from the speakeasy where they first met. Alex brought down the house with his gift to Erin: a series of letters to be opened at future moments in their life together (including their first anniversary and the birth of their first child). Needless to say, there wasn’t a dry eye in the room!
With a nod to old Hollywood glam, Erin & Alex were camera ready. Alissa’s editorial eye was a perfect match for these two lovebirds, who have experience being directed and posed. And while they knew how to work the camera, it was even more special to see them let go, have fun, and enjoy the moment. After all, that’s what improv is all about!
