Moreover, these locations are a great idea for pre-wedding photography as well! 


Millennium Park

Located around half-an-hour away from Chateau Bu-Sche', Millennium Park is home to various unique photo ops. A state-of-the-art collection of architecture, landscape design, and art make the Millennium Park a great place to shoot your romantic post-wedding photos. The place is a hub of photo ops! Starting at the iconic the Cloud Gate (the Bean), then covering the Lurie Garden, and walking down to the lake - the POA is flawless!  The Millennium Park is even better after sunset as the place is a glittering wonderland that looks surreal in photos. The city lights form an uber glamorous backdrop to your post-wedding photography.  


Chicago Skyline

The symbolic skyline of Chicago is considered to be one of the most beautiful backdrops for pre-wedding and post-wedding photoshoots. The spectacular views of the skyline can be absorbed from various locations like the Riverfront Walk, the Cloud Gate, Grant Park, Chicago Cultural Center, Michigan Avenue Bridge, Adler Planetarium, Millenium Park and Navy Pier. 


La Salle Street / Board of Trade

This location promises that quintessential Chicago vibe, with high rises of Downtown Chicago all around you. Located just 34 minutes from the wedding venue, La Salle Street is mostly recommended for a weekend wedding, when all the offices are closed and the area is relatively less crowded. However, if you happen to be getting married on a weekday, we would advise you to get here after work hours for a more relaxed post-wedding photo session. 


Chicago Theater

This one is the ultimate spot for Chicago wedding photography. Your wedding dreams just came alive in the whimsical city of Chicago, there’s no better way to shout it out to the world than doing it at the iconic Chicago Theater sign shining right behind you, in all its glory. This landmark of the spot is located within the EL and belongs to the Chicago Theater established in 1920. It’s equivalent to six-stories and a post-wedding photoshoot at the Chicago Theater conveys your love story that bloomed in this amazing city. This gorgeous post-wedding photo session location is located only 30 minutes away from the wedding venue. 


Buckingham Fountain

This spot is also roughly a half-an-hour drive from the wedding venue. Fun fact - the Buckingham Fountain is one of the largest fountains in the world! Located in the middle of Grant Park, the fountain rococo wedding cake style, and inspired by the Latona Fountain at the Palace of Versailles. And when the fountain lights up after sunset, it is a sight to behold! It also forms one of the most romantic backdrops for post-wedding photography in Chicago. It is fondly remembered as the fountain that was featured in the iconic American sitcoms, Married with Children. It painted such a romantic picture on the television screens back then! And to date, we absolutely love the magic that this fountain creates, be it during the day or night! 


Chicago RiverWalk

Finally, to capture the soul of Chicago, nothing compares to the Chicago RiverWalk. Right in the heart of Downtown Chicago, lies a gem of a walkway, which stretches for 1.2 miles along the south bank of the Chicago River. You might have been to the Chicago Riverwalk, but on your wedding day, it’ll feel like a totally different experience. The place buzzes with people, waterfront cafes and restaurants, wineries, museums, all of which means - a lot of people around. Therefore, we have the perfect location to have a quiet and romantic post-wedding photography. Right before the river flows into Lake Michigan, a paved path, that lies on the northeast side of the river and is adorned with wrought iron benches and cast iron lamp posts. That magic spot is the answer to your super romantic post-wedding photoshoot which has a heartbeat of the mighty Chicago River!

Your love story and wedding day will be captured as things keep unfolding throughout your big day. Chateau Bu-Sche' is the perfect place to celebrate the happiest day of your lives and to create memories that will last for you a lifetime.
