On Saturday, September 5, 2020, the friends and family of Jenna and Scott gathered at a private residence for a charming backyard wedding in Cary, IL. The casual chic backyard wedding included an intimate ceremony with heartfelt vows, a whimsical photo booth and even a funnel cake truck. Not to mention guests were able to enjoy seeing our chefs in action, safely grilling up tacos and corn and the cob. Check out the photos and unique backyard wedding menu below!
