Kendall & Scott's Chicago dive bar celebration

Kendall & Scott's Chicago dive bar celebration

You may have been to the California Clipper, but you've never seen a wedding quite like this. 

From the start, Kendall & Scott had a vision: to recreate their favorite Chicago dive bars at one of our favorite wedding venues, Walden. With a black and white checkered dance floor, red uplighting and matchbook favors for their guests, they nailed the look. 

We created centerpieces with moody, masculine tones of brown and orange, complete with all of the fruits you'd typically find in a cocktail. Kendall carried a classic white bouquet, which was a perfect accent during their photos at another Chicago institution: Club Lucky. 

But the detail that stole the show? A stained glass window pane backdrop for the ceremony, custom-built by Kendall's dad. Can't you just see those windows in the front of your favorite local dive? Chef's kiss
