Wintertime City Hall Elopement with Photos at The Freehand

Photographed and written by Curator, Lisa Kathan

Amanda and Ryan moved to Chicago from Philadelphia during 2020, and though they had previously planned a wedding out east, they decided to get married at City Hall this January. Their ceremony was followed with photos at The Freehand Hotel in River North.

The bride stunned in a beautiful bridal pantsuit and a colorful bouquet from Sprout Home. The couple enjoyed champagne provided by Freehand, and Ryan even showed off his guitar skills to Amanda. This couple was sweet and funny, and I loved the way they make each other laugh.
