Love and baseball, that’s all you really need.
Imagine a beautiful summer day complete with blue skies, fluffy white clouds and temps in the 90′s. Perfect weather for a game at Big Ball Park in Riverside. Add in a big, white tent that provides the right amount of shade and you have the perfect location for a wedding! Jenny and Lee chose Big Ball Park for their wedding ceremony location for a number of reasons, most important being that Jenny spent many years there playing ball with her dad as coach. For sure he was there in spirit that day.
After a touching ceremony the festivities moved to Montefiori in Lemont complete with cocktails, live music, lawn games and the stunning landscape as a backdrop. Jenny and Lee added baseball touches throughout the day – guests used their “tickets” to find their tables, signed a baseball jersey with the couple’s last name embroidered on it, little baseball hats adorned each place setting and all of the paper items were baseball themed as well. Reminding all of us that Love and Baseball is what makes the world go ’round.
