I get to see A LOT of venues. In fact, in a typical wedding season, I am usually at 25 different venues, so over the last 8 years … I have seen a lot of places (and yet still not all of them) because there is *always* a hot new place that just opened.
If your vibe is a venue that is industrial, modern and has a loft vibe (think exposed brick, cement floors, reclaimed wood, exposed pipes, etc) …. then these industrial loft venues in Chicago (and the Chicago suburbs) are going to speak to your heart, boo.

What Brittany Bekas clients say about their wedding photography experience
First time to the blog? Hi, I am Brittany, and I am a fine art film photographer specializing in lifestyle wedding and family photography. I travel worldwide photographing beautiful weddings, engagements, and families, and most of the time you can find me in Chicago, Naples (Southwest Florida), and Las Vegas. My light and airy editing style and candid, joyful photos are what I am best known for. Interested in working together? Contact the studio for more information.
We looked at Theatre on the Lake. It’s a gorgeous venue and I love the history but at $18,000 just to turn on the lights it’s way too rich for our blood.
