This wedding was part of a giveaway we hosted. The pandemic was a negative, and stressful time for a lot of people, and we wanted to say thanks to any “heroes” during the pandemic. The giveaway was hosted on Instagram, and people nominated heroic, engaged friends to win a free wedding! Everyone voted and Salena’s story won. Salena is a frontline worker that works with autistic kids, and had a very special connection with a family’s son in particular. Jess and Salena were never able to have the proper wedding they wanted due to schedules, and then the pandemic. It was such an amazing experience to give this lovely couple something positive to remember in 2020. You can read more about the story on The Daily Herald.

Jess and Salena had an intimate wedding at Wicker Park Inn. We transformed the venue’s backyard to a romantic garden with pastel colored flowers from Leelee’s Garden. It was a time Jess and Salena could share their love with their closest friends, and family during the crazy year of 2020! They next day we were able to pamper them with breakfast in bed by Heartfelt Catering.

What was Fierce about this wedding

Being able to make this wedding during the pandemic. It was such a magical, romantic moment for the couple, but also for all the vendors. It felt amazing to be able to produce an event again, and for such a great cause!!
