When love, timeless elegance, and pure joy come together, the result is an unforgettable celebration. Nicole & Connor’s wedding with the best Chicago wedding band in the stunning Monroe Room of the University Club of Chicago was nothing short of magical.
From the very first note, music played a starring role in their special day. The Artistrings pop string quartet set the perfect mood for the ceremony with a mix of fun and heartfelt selections, including Lucky by Jason Mraz, I’ll Be There by The Jackson 5, Marry Me by Train, and Young & Beautiful by Lana Del Rey. The processional began with the serene Fields of Gold by Sting before transitioning into the classic Can’t Help Falling in Love by Elvis. Then, as Nicole made her breathtaking entrance, the enchanting melody of Christmas Canon by Trans-Siberian Orchestra filled the room. This Chicago wedding ceremony concluded with a joyful recessional to New York, New York, as the room erupted in applause.
The celebration continued with the Chris Sarlas Orchestra curating the perfect soundtrack for the evening. Our pianist set the tone during cocktail hour before our six-piece band accompanied dinner and Nicole & Connor’s first dance. As the night unfolded, we expanded to our full 11-piece ensemble—complete with a full horn section, four dynamic vocalists, and a high-energy rhythm section—to keep the dance floor packed all night.
Check out the reel to experience every unforgettable moment, from the elegant ceremony to the electrifying reception, all in the breathtaking setting of this historic venue overlooking Michigan Avenue.
