Chicago Engagement Session

Juliana made a big move from Maryland to Illinois in 2017 to work at a private Club in the South Suburbs. She eventually took another position as the Events Coordinator at Knollwood Club in Lake Forest, IL in 2018. Patrick, born and raised in Illinois, started his career at Knollwood Club in 2006, being promoted to a Souf Chef by 2018. New to the Club, Patrick made Juliana feel very comfortable and welcomed. They started off as really good co-workers which led Patrick to ask Juliana out on their first date to Fogo de Chao. The two hit it off so well that by their third date, Patrick asked her to be his girlfriend and the rest is history!
On Tuesday, November 16th, Juliana and Patrick had a spontaneous dinner date to their favorite place, Gibson’s Restaurant where Patrick surprised her with the biggest question ever, "Will You Marry Me?" Obviously, she said yes, and here we are today!
