Mike proposed to Elvis at The Lincoln Park Zoo with their pup Rigatoni in Chicago

Mike and Elvis were just THE BEST! Mike proposed to Elvis at the Lincoln Park Zoo ( Check out my guide to choosing a location to propose inf Chicago ) on a very sunny summer day. Once it happened, they had a friend bring their fur baby Rigatoni to join us so he could be included in the photos. The chemistry between these two was contagious. They could not keep their hands off each other or Rigatoni ! We walked around taking photos in the park and then headed to their neighborhood where we strolled through their adorable neighborhood. They had friends and family waiting back home with a fully decorated home! I loved that Mike and Elvis both exchanged rings. Its such a statement when both partners want to commit to a visual display of their love the moment they said yes. It screams WE CANT WAIT ANOTHER MINUTE. Congrats to the both of them! If you are proposing soon in Chicago, please reach out to me here.

The bridge that crosses over the pond at the Lincoln Park Zoo Nature Walk is a very popular place to pop the questions. Not only do you get beautiful natural landscape and water but you also get a view of the skyline without traveling downtown. The bridge is located just behind the “Farm in The Zoo” at 1911 N Stockton Dr, Chicago, IL 60614. If you want to see another proposal in this same location check out Colin & Erin’s fall proposal here.
