Our Wedding

Once upon a time, in the great town of Frankfort, IL, two hearts found their way to each other – Gerry and Olivia. Their love story is a testament to friendship, shared passions, and the beauty of patience. Gerry and Olivia first crossed paths in 2006 when the Burns family moved to Frankfort. Little did they know that their journey had just begun. Growing up they hung around the same crowd sharing laughter, adventures and countless memories. They spent majority of their teenage years at the Prestwick Country Club pool, teammates on the Water Polo team there (star players for sure), and many weekends together throughout high school with their tight-knit friend group (shoutout DD). Over the years, their friendship deepened, and the bond between Gerry and Olivia became unbreakable. As time unfolded, their hearts had been patiently waiting for the perfect moment to start their love story. After 7 years together, Gerry popped the question in front of the Board of Trade Building in Downtown Chicago. As they’ve dreamt for years, they will be getting married in a place that is close to both of their hearts. Somewhere they’ve created so many meaningful memories with each other, family &amp; friends. And so, on this joyous occasion, Gerry and Olivia invite you to witness the culmination of their journey – from childhood friends to life partners. Join them in their favorite place as they exchange vows, celebrating the beauty of their shared history and the promise of a future filled with love, laughter, and countless more adventures together.
