We always strive to create unique and memorable experiences for our couples. Recently, we had the pleasure of organizing an enchanting engagement session for Lauren and Michael, which took place on a sailboat cruising the picturesque waters of Lake Michigan. With champagne flowing and a delectable mini charcuterie picnic, they enjoyed an evening aboard the Siren song.




When it comes to engagement sessions, we believe in showcasing the true essence of the couple and their chosen location. With the iconic skyline of Chicago and the vast expanse of Lake Michigan, we knew we had the perfect backdrop for Lauren and Michael’s love story. The sailboat provided an intimate and dreamy setting, adding a touch of elegance and a sense of adventure to their special day.



Boarding the sailboat, Lauren and Michael were greeted with champagne flutes, ready to toast to their future together. As the boat gracefully glided along the glistening waters, the couple savored every sip of their bubbly, reveling in the joy of the moment. The gentle breeze caressed their faces, creating a romantic ambiance that only added to the magic of the occasion.



Accompanying the champagne was a thoughtfully curated mini charcuterie picnic, designed to tantalize their taste buds. A delightful assortment of artisanal cheeses, cured meats, fresh fruits, and delectable treats awaited them, providing the perfect complement to their celebration. With each bite, Lauren and Michael indulged in the flavors while basking in the beauty of their surroundings.
