Aja & Evan
Salvage One, Chicago, IL
Aja and Evan’s wedding at Salvage One embraced a captivating Midnight on the Beach aesthetic, transforming the industrial Chicago venue into a moody coastal escape. Deep ocean-inspired hues, flickering candlelight, and thoughtfully placed seashell details created an atmosphere that felt both dramatic and romantic, while honoring the couple’s unique vision.
The celebration took place on a crisp November day, when the final traces of autumn lingered in the air. Salvage One’s collection of vintage furnishings provided the perfect backdrop, with mismatched tables available for purchase adding character, charm, and an effortless sense of discovery to the evening.
Blending the raw beauty of the historic space with seaside-inspired details, the wedding felt intimate, unexpected, and deeply personal—a reflection of Aja and Evan’s style and the unforgettable experience they created for their guests.
