Molly is English and Eliot is American. They met while while playing basketball. Their wedding was a fun Jewish/Catholic affair with lots of laughing, dancing and happiness! The backdrop for the day? The ever impressive Grand Concourse. Oh did I mention they had cupcakes from Coco’s Cupcakes, a fresh donut station and a candy buffet?! Yum!!
Molly has great taste in fashion. Love her short 50’s style dress, which she paired with ’statement’ shoes to compliment the blue lining inside of Eliot’s vintage style English 3 piece tailored suit.

Cupcakes, candy and donuts… oh my! (images of donuts by Kevin)
The reception was a good time.
It was a really REALLY good time.
And we ended the night with the Hora. I think this description of the Hora from theknot.com sums up the picture quite nicely:
“No Jewish wedding is complete without the Hora, or chair dance, most likely derived from the tradition of carrying royalty on chairs. A few strong and brave guests hoist the bride and groom high above the crowd on chairs to the infectious sounds of “Hava Nagila”. Friends and family dance around in an ecstatic circle as the elevated couple tries not to look (or fall) down.”

Molly and Eliot, your wedding was a blast. Thanks for having us and I wish you a lifetime of happiness as you start your life in Chicago.
The photos are amazing! I can’t wait to see the rest of them! Thank you so much!
