Colleen + Keith - 9/5/10

On September 5, Colleen and Keith got married in a Catholic/Jewish ceremony at the Seasons of Long Grove - it was a lovely evening for us all!

Her gorgeous bouquet:

Hurray! Birdcage veil!

The ceremony:

The gift table with photos of their families - we love this idea!

Cake, cupcakes and challah:

The low centerpieces allowed for good conversation:

The tables each had cards explaining that Colleen and Keith had made a donation in honor of her father to the American Diabetes Association in lieu of favors:

The sweet cupcakes:

Dessert table:

The Seasons is a very quaint venue:
