This gorgeous black and white themed wedding came to us courtesy of the photographer and the entertainer, so if it’s heavy on the entertainment end, it just goes to show you how fun a wedding party can be when you just let the professionals do their thing! But before the party even began, Samantha and Paul celebrated their vows with elegance and style.

Chicago Event Planner Randy Schuster worked closely with the families to create an atmosphere of Romantic Elegance. The entire ballroom was illuminated by candlelight as The Bradley Young Monte Carlo Strings ushered guests into the pre-ceremony with exquisite music from The Great American Songbook by composers such as Gershwin, Porter, Arlen, Rogers and Hart, and Kern.

The cocktail hour was fabulous, with delectable hors de oeuvres and toe tapping music by the Bradley Young Jazz Ensemble. Then the guests were ready to PARTY!

“This was a vibrant, audacious, amazing, crazy, outta control Chicago Wedding Celebration that reached a literal fever pitch of excitement when the bride and groom, their parents, wedding parties and families all joined The Bradley Young Orchestra ON STAGE for the last hour of the party, dancing, jumping, and singing along with the band and our outrageous vocalists!,” says Eddie Victorian of Bradley Young Entertainment. (And if a sentence like that is anything like the reception, whew, no wonder there was energy to burn!).

The dancing continued until 2 am! Motown classics, 70s and 80s hits, and new music by Lady GaGa, Usher, Coldplay, Ray La Montaigne, Kee$ha, Taio Cruz, and of course the famous “Bradley Young Endless Hora” kept the guests blood PUMPIN’! No body wanted to leave! Having the stage filled with family and guests sharing the spotlight with our performers is something we never forget! We all had a BLAST!
