Alex and Cameron's Parisian School House Wedding

Fierce Productions had the privilege of creating a unique and memorable wedding wedding for Alex and Cameron at The School House Chicago. The wedding’s theme, “Romantic Parisian School Drop Out,” set the stage for an extraordinary affair.

The ambiance of a Parisian soirée was brought to life with a candlelit dinner amidst a library of dreams, adorned with astrology motifs and shimmering tinsel, creating a “magical starlight dinner” atmosphere. This wedding was not just an event; it was a journey into a world of romance and whimsy, meticulously designed by to be a cherished memory for all.
