Our Wedding

It was always you...

Two fifteen-year-old classmates who started as friends and, over time, became each other’s forever. Jacob and Courteneay met sophomore year at St. Edward Central Catholic High School, never realizing the friendship they built would one day become a love story.

What began as simple conversations and shared laughter carried them through college, new cities, and all the ordinary adventures of growing up together. With every season of life, their connection deepened — late-night talks became dreams for the future, small acts of kindness became unwavering devotion, and countless moments of love and support stitched their lives together.

Now they’ve built a home filled with love, laughter, and their beloved fur babies, surrounded by the family and friends who have supported them along the way. After years of growing side by side, they cannot wait to begin their next chapter together — forever.

875 North Michigan Avenue

A Historic Bite of Chicago"Nestled in a narrow brick Victorian building at 2121 North Clark Street, the brown facade of Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder Company marks a site of both historic weight and enduring charm—it stands directly across from the location of the infamous St. Valentine’s Day Massacre of February 14, 1929.While the neighborhood’s past is steeped in turmoil, stepping inside the restaurant reveals a warm, inviting atmosphere rooted in the old-world charm and Midwestern hospitality that founder Albert H. Beaver envisioned when he opened the doors in April 1972.The intimate, high-backed booths offer guests a sense of privacy and comfort within the restaurant’s compact layout. Rich wood paneling and the soft glow of low lighting evoke the clandestine ambiance of Prohibition-era Chicago. The dining room, reminiscent of a hidden speakeasy, features furnishings crafted from thick, dark wood—meticulously maintained since the restaurant’s founding."
