Mr. & Mrs. Matthew Beiser and wedding party

Pieronek & Beiser

Tara Marie Pieronek and Matthew Donald Beiser were united in mar-riage at 6 p.m. April 26, 2014. The wedding ceremony and reception were held in the grand ballroom on the 16th floor of the Trump Tower in Chicago.

The parents of the bride are Mar-jorie and Dr. H. Bruce Bosmann of Dixon. The bride was given in mar-riage by her mother.

She wore an Anna Maier Couture dress in ivory, French silk, with a strapless, sweetheart neckline.

The wedding included the couple's friends and family from across the U.S., as well as Canada and Germa-ny.

Guests danced all night to the pop-ular "Sway Chicago" band, led by the couple's friend, Steve Biossat, and Martin Luna, the disc jockey, who has worked across Chicago and New York, and with Madonna. Everyone enjoyed a mix of music, and often the large, dance floor was so filled, it overflowed throughout the Trump Tower Grand Ballroom.

The bride's deep appreciation for art influenced the floral arrange-ments and bouquets that included dramatic calla lilies and orchids, all done by A Stem Above from Chi-cago. The room was illuminated by dramatic, lighting features that matched the invites and décor.

During the bride and groom's first dance, the curtains parted to reveal the Chicago night skyline, the Chi-cago River, and Lake Michigan to further enhance the ballroom.

Carrie Schwarz of Chicago served as the maid of honor, and was joined by bridesmaids, Bobbie Gray and Lara Muldoon, both of Chicago; Erin Rossini of Plainfield; and Tricia Lemons of Bloomington, sister of the groom.

The junior bridesmaids were Abi-gail and Ashley Lemons, nieces of the groom. The bridesmaids and junior bridesmaids all wore merlot-colored, satin dresses by Bill Levkoff.

Dan Barham of Bloomington was the best man, joined by grooms-men, Michael Sierak of Lemont; Chuck Barham of Elgin; Clint Sail-ors of Winneconne, Wisconsin; and Jeff Mitchell of Carpentersville. Craig Lemons, brother-in-law of the groom, served as the usher.

Matt Beiser, originally from Cham-paign, and a graduate of the Uni-versity of Illinois, is a senior secu-rity software specialist at IBM. Tara, originally from the suburbs of Chi-cago, and a graduate of Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, is a marketing manager at Accenture.

The couple reside in Chicago, and honeymooned in Italy and the Greek Islands.

Share those special memories with CelebrationsCelebrations features

weddings, engagements, anniversaries, and other happy news, such as birthdays, reunions, and four- or five-generation photos.

As a special way to pre-serve these memorable occasions, quarter-, half- or full-page announce-ments can be purchased.

Paid announcements are determined by word count: no more than 125 words for a quarter page, no more than 250 words for a half page, and up to 340 words for a full page. Those paying for announcements will have the opportunity to proof them before publication.

Customers will be called when the announcement is ready to be proofed. At that time, any corrections or additions can be made as needed at SVM’s Dixon and Sterling offices. For convenience, proofs will be emailed without calls whenever possible.

Photos may be submit-ted in color or black and

white, and in any size. Emailed photos should be in JPEG format with a res-olution of 200 and a width of at least 5 inches for best quality. All announce-ments can be printed without photos if desired.

Celebration forms are available at the Telegraph and Daily Gazette clas-sified departments or by email.

Sauk Val ley Media is not responsible for errors due to unreadable information. A daytime phone number and email address (if available) are requested to help to insure accuracy.

Weddings are available in basic (free) form (one photo of the couple), quarter-page paid (one photo), half-page paid (two photos), and full-page paid (up to four pho-tos).

The wedding form should be returned preferably within 2 to 4 months after the wedding date.

Engagements are avail-

able in basic (free) form (one photo of the couple), two styles of quarter-page paid (one photo only), half-page paid (two pho-tos), and full-page paid (up to four photos).

Anniversary announce-ments are available in the basic (free) form (one cur-rent photo), quarter-page paid (one or two photos), half-page paid (two pho-tos), and full-page paid (up to four photos).

Announcements begin-ning with the 25th anni-versary, and then in 5-year increments up to 60 years, can be at no charge. Other increments will require a paid announcement. Anniversaries of 70 years and more are at no charge in a paid format; the announcement size will be determined by the edi-tor.

After 60th-year anni-versaries, SVM will pub-lish free announcements, without special wording, without the 5-year incre-ment restriction.

Birthday announce-

ments for area seniors 80 years of age and older can be at no charge without special wording. There is a charge for those young-er than 80.

The basic (free) form (one current photo), quarter-page paid (one or two photos), half-page paid (two photos), and full-page paid (up to four photos) are available.

For 100th and older birthdays, SVM will pub-lish free announcements in a paid format; the announcement size will be determined by the edi-tor.

Reunions are for area residents who are gather-ing, or have gathered, for a family or class reunion.

Reunion items will be edited due to space limi-tations, and lists of all those attending are not available in the free for-mat.

Photos also are not avail-able for a free announce-ment, but can be used in any of the paid announce-ments. If a large group

photo is submitted, only one can be used in the quarter-page format, one photo is recommended in the half-page format, and up to four normally can be used in the full-page format. Large group photos with long lists of names may require at least a half-page paid announcement.

Note: A group photo for a class reunion only can be submitted at no charge for the Scrapbook page of SV Weekend by email to [email protected] or in person.

For publication in Cel-ebrations, class reunions of 70 years and more will be available in the quarter-page format at no charge, with a photo allowed.

Five-generation and four-generation photos with names, relationships, and places of residence of those pictured may be sub-mitted for publication.

Multiple photos from the same submitter will need to be on a paid basis.

Generation announce-

ments are, of course, avail-able on a paid (custom) basis in quarter-page (one photo), half-page (two photos), and full-page (up to four photos) form.

Other celebrations include retirements, pro-motions, awards, honors, baptisms, confirmations, baby’s arrival (able to con-tain more information than standard birth announce-ments, along with a photo), and other occasions. Cus-tomers may purchase a quarter-page (one photo – two if space allows), half-page, (up to two photos) or full-page (up to four pho-tos) paid announcement in Celebrations on a custom basis.
