They really do things DIFFERENT THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Instead of 'photojournalistic' photographers....get this...(i'm still not over this). The photographer sets up basically a studio in the corner of the venue - backdrop, flashes, chair....to take pictures of everyone...so it's all very posey posey... UGH...it was so weird!!!!!
Other weird things i'll think of and post about - but it was just sooooooooooo strange to me....and my friend told me that every wedding she's ever been to has been like that!!!!!
Um - yeah - we're back...
ETA - i took some of my own photojournalistic pics & will post them soon...
Refresher - this was my friends' 5th wedding...

Re: Back from Chicago Wedding - UPDATED WITH PICS

Hi. I just wanted to put my 2 cents in. I live in an Illinois suburb close to Chicago and that is definitely not the norm!!!! I am having a photojournalistic photog and my food is served family style. I think there are the other types of photogs you are refering too but most are switching to the more modern kind. They do have buffets but you can pick which style you perfer. The only thing I have really seen different since I have joined LIW is the price that you guys pay verses what we pay but other than that everything else seems the same.
I can only tell you what she told me. She told me that she has been to several weddings & they all do the photo studio set up in a corner...
