ROSE + SIAVASH DOWNTOWN CHICAGO WEDDING

Lifetime by The Dramatics. Licensed by Musicbed.

Get ready for Rose + Siavash’s meet cute because it’s right out of a romantic movie. She was at one of the ‘El’ subway stations when a group of boys wouldn’t let her out and started following her. Pretty scary stuff as a woman! When Siavash saw a stranger in need of support, he didn’t even hesitate. A good man to the core, he immediately intervened and made sure she was safe! (*swoons inside*) Classy move, Siavash! What a gentleman! From there they went on dates, fell in love, and decided to get married. But darn COVID had to postpone their plans! They finally made it happen though, but this time they had the cutest little baby in toe! Look at him in his tux! Congrats you guys, I was so honored to document your beautiful day!
