Michael and Yeimidy’s Third Ward Wedding Photos | Onesto, Milwaukee

Last year we had the pleasure of photographing Part 1 of Yeimidy and Michael’s wedding: an intimate backyard ceremony as they held off on a larger celebration due to COVID-19. Fast forward to last month, it was wonderful working with them again to capture another ceremony and blessing with them surrounded by some of their nearest and dearest, followed by SUCH a fun reception with plenty of dancing! The day started at Dubbel Dutch, a boutique Milwaukee hotel where our team photographer Joshua met up with the two of them as they got ready for the big event. The historic architecture was the perfect backdrop for photos of their preparations followed by their romantic First Look!

After some laughs, drinks and excitement, they all made their way to the Third Ward and RiverWalk where Joshua captured some relaxed, candid, romantic and fun portraits of them with their wedding party. These were great locations for their wedding photos, and soon it was time to make their way into Onesto for their beautiful ceremony.

We just love the emotion on their faces and the ambiance of the twinkling lights! After they were announced and made their way down the aisle surrounded by cheers, everyone enjoyed their reception with personal touches like hand painted ceramics, papel picado, sugar skull cookies, a fun and creative illustration of Michael and Yeimidy, and marquee initials. The dance floor was never empty, and the lovebirds enjoyed cooling off for a few dramatic, moody and artistic nighttime portraits to conclude their photography coverage.

Congratulations, Yeimidy and Michael! We’re so happy for you two, and we wish you many happy years!
