Inside A Vibrant and Intimate Lakefront Vow Renewal at Shoreacres Country Club

A garden inspired wedding ceremony design at Shoreacres Country Club planned by Michigan Avenue Events.

Ten years after their first “I Do,” Lisa and Matt said it again on the shores of Lake Michigan at Shoreacres in Lake Bluff, and the design told the story as much as the vows did. Featured in Modern Luxury Weddings North Shore, the couple’s 10-year vow renewal was a vibrant and intimate celebration.

Lisa, a wedding photographer herself, brought in longtime industry friends helping shape the day from concept to execution. Saville Flowers built the day's centerpiece in a rich, sunset-toned palette of dahlias and garden roses echoing the golden hour light off the lake. Stationery designer Emily Baird tied tablescapes and signage back to the same sunset tones, keeping the design language consistent throughout.

The dramatic landscape of Shoreacres Country Club provided the perfect backdrop for this couple’s milestone celebration.

Following the ceremony, guests gathered for an elegant private dinner where Matt offered a touching toast, thanking their closest friends for the love, encouragement, and unwavering support they had shown throughout the years. The evening concluded with a celebration at Maevery Public House, where everyone toasted not only the past decade but the many adventures still to come.
