Real Weddings: Summer + Eric

Summer and Eric’s Chicago wedding, photographed by Danielle Aquiline, is anything but ordinary! The couple created all of the elements of their wedding themselves, and held an intimate ceremony, officiated by a friend, in the Lincoln Park Conservatory Gardens and a reception at the outdoor wine bar, Volo.
