Madison & Josiah’s Wedding: A Love Story from Childhood to Forever

Madison and Josiah’s wedding was not just a celebration of their love as a couple, but also a testament to a bond that has been growing since childhood. From their sweet beginnings in kindergarten to their beautiful wedding day, it was an honor to capture every moment of this lifelong love story.

 

Getting Ready at Crowne Plaza Hotel

We started the day at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, where both Madison and Josiah were surrounded by friends and family as they prepared for the day ahead. Madison was radiant in her lace gown, and the bridesmaids’ energy was infectious as they helped her with the final details. Josiah, equally excited and calm, shared some lighthearted moments with his groomsmen as they got ready.

 

Ceremony at the Greenhouse in Volunteer Park Conservatory

The ceremony was held at the Greenhouse in Volunteer Park Conservatory, a space that felt as intimate and beautiful as Madison and Josiah’s story. The lush greenery and soft natural light created a dreamlike atmosphere as they exchanged vows.

The highlight for me was capturing Josiah’s face as Madison walked down the aisle. Their connection was palpable in every glance and smile throughout the ceremony. With their loved ones gathered around, the Greenhouse became a perfect haven for these two to start their new chapter together.

 

A Nostalgic and Heartfelt Reception at Marion Built Loft

The reception at Marion Built Loft was where the day’s emotions and celebrations truly came alive. The industrial-chic venue was transformed into a warm, welcoming space filled with love and laughter.

One of the sweetest moments of the evening was the slideshow Madison and Josiah had put together. The photos captured them as children—yes, they’ve known each other since kindergarten! Seeing pictures of Madison and Josiah from their early years brought so much warmth and joy to the room. Guests were teary-eyed and smiling as the slideshow moved through the years, from playground buddies to life partners.

This unique touch made the reception all the more special. It was such a beautiful reminder of how deep and enduring their bond is, and it felt like the perfect way to celebrate a love that had been growing for so long.
