Sarah + Robert: Cuneo Mansion Engagement//Vernon Hills

Robert is a long-time friend of mine. I couldn’t be happier that he is engaged to Sarah, a beautiful woman who keeps Robert in check (insert wink here). I am thrilled to be shooting their wedding in July at the Cuneo Mansion in Vernon Hills. The Cuneo is a GORGEOUS mansion that was built a long time ago in the style of an Italian villa with an open-air court in the middle of the mansion. Much of the original furniture and family possessions remains in the mansion–stunning antiques and artwork–which make for a dream venue for me. They are currently doing construction on a brand-new event space to be added onto the side of the mansion which I am excited about. We will be one of the first weddings to take place there once construction is finished! Another side note about the mansion is that this is where the wedding in the movie My Best Friend’s Wedding (starring Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz, and others) was shot. How fun! After touring the Cuneo with Robert and Sarah a couple weekends ago we did a quick engagement session in and around the grounds.
