There are some love stories that feel like they were meant to be—from the first jar of salad dressing spilled to the perfect wedding dress found on the very first try. For our beautiful bride Sinéad, who shined in Enzoani, both moments were part of the journey that led to her unforgettable wedding day.
Sinéad married her longtime love Nick in a heartfelt ceremony at Loyola University of Chicago—the same place where she completed her undergraduate degree. Nick, who attended Loyola Academy for high school, also had a personal connection to the venue. With the chapel doors opening to the breathtaking view of Lake Michigan, it was the perfect place to say “I do.” The couple then celebrated with a stylish Chicago reception at Walden, a modern event space that checked all their boxes for hosting 150 of their closest friends and family.
When it came time to find the dress, Sinéad’s journey led her to Dimitra’s Bridal Couture, where she worked with Ismini—and everything clicked into place.
“Ismini from start to finish made the experience so personal. Choosing the dress that you’ll wear on your special day is such a monumental moment, and taking the time to make it personal made it all that more special.”
After visiting two other bridal boutiques and still feeling uncertain, Sinéad described her vision to Ismini, who confidently replied, “I have your dress.” Moments later, she brought out Enzoani’s “Theresa” gown, and on the very first try—it was the one.
“She truly did have my dress. Even after saying yes, she made the day an experience—pulling more dresses for me to try on, suggesting different ways to style it for the ceremony and reception. She made it a day to remember, and I couldn’t be more grateful.”
The Theresa gown by Enzoani made Sinéad feel elegant, beautiful, and loved—exactly what every bride deserves on her big day.
As for her love story? It started in 2017 at an Irish pub in Edison Park, where Sinéad and Nick worked together. During her first shift, Nick, her designated trainer, accidentally knocked over an entire jar of Thousand Island dressing while showing her how to put things away. And just like that… it was love at first spill.
From a sweet workplace meet-cute to a breathtaking lakeside ceremony and a Chicago reception filled with love, laughter, and perfectly curated style—Sinéad’s wedding day was everything she dreamed of, and more.
Congratulations, Sinéad and Nick! We’re honored to have been part of your journey.
