Ayssa and Nick tied the knot with an intimate wedding back in 2020 -- during the Covid-19 pandemic. But, that didn't stop them from celebrating with lots of family and friends. They simply put that on hold for a while. Then, one year later, the day before their first anniversary, they hosted a wonderful Fall reception that was filled with fun for everyone. It was a picture-perfect day, at the Hyatt Lodge in Oak Brook, with plenty of natural, sunlit beauty. For the wedding party, the whole event was like a big happy reunion. There was so much to talk about, laugh about, and remember (especially since one of the bridesmaids and groomsmen had become a thing since the wedding). Alyssa was just beautiful, Nick was charming, and everyone was so excited to finally be celebrating with them. It was such a treat for us to be a part of this sweet "second" wedding day, too! Congratulations Alyssa and Nick. Your wedding and reception were beautiful, and we wish you all the love and happiness in the world.
