Chicago Engagement Session At The Drake Hotel

Elegant dessert table with cupcakes and engagement ring

Are you ready for a classy Marie Antoinette inspired engagement story? Taking place at the Drake Hotel in Chicago with tons of delicious sweets from Vanille Patisserie, Sugar Cake Bliss Boutique and More Cupcakes, A Perfect Event did a lovely job styling this engagement shoot. We love the cake bar draped in French pleated silk linen, over sized candelabras, elegant silver cake stands, macaroons, cupcakes, icing shots, truffles and lots of French pastries, shot by Chicago wedding photographer, Avery House.
