How fabulous does getting married on a yacht surrounded by your nearest and dearest sound? It sounds pretty darn amazing to me, and by the looks of the gorgeous images from Dana Ann Photography my assumption is dead on. Add a stunning bouquet by Bella Flora, a seriously swoon-worthy dress, the gorgeous Chicago skyline as the backdrop and you have the makings of a gallery full of gorgeous!

From Dana Ann Photography…This intimate wedding was decorated by God Himself with the gorgeous weather, cloud painted blue sky, sparkling Lake Michigan waves playing off sunshine all day long. The sophisticated bride graced in her birdcage veil and perfectly stated short-length one shoulder adorned dress stepped into view carrying flower blossoms saved only for occasions this special! With spectacular views of the Chicago skyline, the Chicago harbor lighthouse and Navy Pier as the many backdrops….every moment captured is fresh and gorgeous.

I'm loving the bride's dress, especially the back! how fun! Where is the groom's tie from? I'm struggling finding neat ties...
What a great use of framing in that second to last photo!
Thank you for your sweet comments :) I found my husband's tie at Nordstrom’s on Michigan Avenue.
It's the Nordstrom’s' brand and I believe I bought it back in June. Wishing you all the best!!!
What a delight to shoot Laura & Matthew's wedding! While each wedding I shoot inspires me in art as well as love, this was a wedding for all the senses! Many Blessings to all brides and grooms who are inspired by this one.
PS Have gear, will travel
What a beautiful bride! I LOVE her dress and the accessories that she chose... perfect for a yacht wedding!
These are beautiful photos!!!
Beautiful couple showcased by an individual with a natural expertise in photography. Perfect capture of a wedding in an urban setting while keeping the focus on the main subject - the bride and groom.
What a gorgeous wedding! Everyone will be wanting photos on a yacht. Love the dress, the flowers and all the glamorous shots.
I love the bride's shoes! where are they from?
LOVE that dress! Who is the designer?!
Love your dress!!!!! Where is it from??
LAURA! Oh-my-gosh! I was just doing a search for "navy" as I am having my wedding in Annapolis and looking for ideas and low-and-behold, I see an old co-worker from Gap (worked with you in Chicago as the real estate assistant with Alicia). Congrats!!! What a beautiful bride! So happy for you! Hope all is going well! Haha...what a small world!
