Hannah and Fred’s Fall Wedding Day | Engine Company No 3
Fred and Hannah had a wonderful day for their early Fall wedding! Their romantic First Look took place at The Hank Aaron State Trail where our photographer Sarah captured some portraits of them with their wedding party in the lovely sunshine ☀️
Then they were off to Engine Company No. 3 for the big event! They chose this venue because they loved the brick, the overall feel of the place, and its location in Walker's Point. Their ceremony was filled with so much love! ❤️
Daniel and Cassia’s Wauwatosa Historical Society Wedding Day
On Cassie and Dan's seven year anniversary, they both took the day to do their favorite things, eat their favorite foods and celebrate their love. They exchanged rings and became engaged last December!
Daniel love's Cassie's compassion, kindness and willingness to help others, and she loves his unwavering support, kindness and his logical way of thinking ❤️
Santi and McKenna’s Modern Downtown MKE Wedding Day | Vista
McKenna and Santi's rooftop wedding was just so scenic! They loved the modern/industrial look and the historic and picturesque location of Vista, where they had both their outdoor ceremony and fun-filled reception.
After the ceremony, our photographer Sandy joined them on the trolley and headed to downtown Milwaukee's lakefront where they captured some portraits of the newlyweds and their wedding party. The blue skies and water were a gorgeous backdrop! Then they headed back to their reception to join guests for an evening of celebration complete with moving speeches, delicious food and dancing under the stars ✨
Sugar Island Barn Wedding Day | Lindsey and Beau
Beau and Lindsey had a gorgeous day for their outdoor wedding! We love how their children Ryder and Wyatt walked Lindsey down part of the aisle, and they had so many personal touches throughout the day that showcased their personalities. They made sure their wedding was going to be fun for all ages and included lots of activities for the kids as well as fun favors for everyone.
Sugar Island Barn made a perfect location for both their ceremony and reception, and our photographer Lisa had a wonderful time photographing their day and taking their portraits around the grounds! We particularly love their flower petal recessional and their sparkler exit later that evening ✨
Sharon Lynne Wilson Center Wedding | Emily and Christopher
Christopher and Emily had a day filled with so many smiles! I (Miranda) was texting Sarah, their Reminisce photographer, while I was editing them because I was just so touched by all the personal moments! Their grandparents were all key players in their wedding, they had the most delicious looking cookie bar of all time (baked by the women of Christopher’s family), and their centerpieces were gifted by Emily’s students (how sweet is that?!) 🥰
They have so many interests and hobbies in common, but our favorite one listed might be, “Telling our cat, Louise, how perfect and nice she is.” If that gives you any indication of just how sweet and adorable they are... ❤️
The American Club and Whistling Straits Destination Wedding | Kristin and Joey
Kris and Joey wanted to do a destination wedding, but realized logistics would be difficult with guests flying out, so they chose Wisconsin... a destination from Chicago! They loved the historic vibes of the American Club for their getting-ready coverage, first look, and some of their portraits... and they loved how Whistling Straits' Irish Barn and scenery felt like they were transported to another country for their ceremony and reception.
They had perfect timing with the weather that day; a big storm came through, but it didn't rain on their parade! They were still able to have all of their portraits outside as well as their ceremony :) The sounds of the storm gave such a cozy ambiance to their reception, and left them with some dramatic skies for some nighttime photos!
Megs and Dyson’s Romantic Golden Hour Session | Boerner Botanical Gardens
First wedding anniversary photos don't get more romantic than these!
Megs' flowy dress and bouquet, and their perfectly coordinating outfits set the tone for their golden hour portraits at Boerner Botanical Gardens. The fountains, bridge, gazebo, flourishing gardens and open fields all gave us so much variety at one location.
Summer Downtown Lakefront Wedding | Stacy and Ken
Ken and Stacy had a perfect late summer day for their downtown Milwaukee lakefront wedding! Their ceremony was at O'Donnell Park overlooking the Milwaukee Art Museum and set against the MKE cityscape. They love the views from there, and they chose such a picturesque location for their nuptials!
Our photographer Sarah started their candid coverage as guests were arriving for the ceremony. Love seeing all the joy and excitement on everyone's faces as they mingled and found their seats for the big event!
Paige and Ethan’s Historic Third Ward Wedding Day | Plant No 4
Ethan and Paige met 13 years ago while they were both in high school. They hung out daily as friends until their friendship blossomed into more one night at Summerfest! They even survived a long distance relationship during their college years, and we were so thrilled to be a part of their wedding day that was filled with so much love, tears of joy, and dancing.
The day started with Paige, her mom, bridesmaids and “posse” getting ready at a bnb in the Third Ward. Then getting-ready coverage continued at their venue, Plant N° 4, with Ethan and the guys hanging out in the Bianco Room. Soon it was time for their romantic First Look along Milwaukee's RiverWalk! Their reactions to seeing each other were priceless, and then we captured some portraits along the way to meeting up with their wedding party. Such a fun group!
Pinar and George’s Villa Terrace Wedding Day
George and Pinar had such a picturesque, romantic wedding! They chose Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum for their big day, as they fell in love with the historic venue's architecture, gardens and lake views. It was also the perfect size for their intimate, love-filled wedding.
Our photographer Sandy met up with them at the villa to photograph finishing touches of them getting ready for the big event! The villa's plentiful windows and natural light, ornate wallpaper and historic furniture made a gorgeous backdrop for the exciting moments leading up to their ceremony!
Kim and Cody’s Stylish Wedding Day | Boerner Botanical Gardens Outdoor Ceremony
Cody and Kim had a fantastic late summer day for their outdoor wedding ceremony at Boerner Botanical Gardens! They visited there early on in their relationship and always thought it was a beautiful place that held special meaning for them.
They are such a stylish duo with Kim rocking their strawberry attire and Cody in his emerald green suit, and their wedding party of groomsmen and "babes" also looked fab. Their wedding party was complete with their bubble girl who did such a great job and was all smiles!
Christina and Matt Are Married | Villa Filomena Wedding
Christina and Matt are married! Let's tell you a little more about this sweet couple: Matt loves Christina's warm heart (her generosity, kindness, and empathy) coupled with her brilliant and perceptive mind. Christina said that Matt is kind, thoughtful, handsome, intelligent, adventurous, playful. "The total package," she said with a smile :)
The two of them got married at Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church, where Christina grew up attending, and they chose Villa Filomena for their reception because they loved the character and intimate feel.
Elise and Patrick’s Westmoor Country Club Wedding day
Congrats, Elise and Patrick! Our photographer Sarah recently captured the perfect day for these two, and we're all about the cozy romance and elegance of their winter wedding. From the dark woodwork to a wall of roses and stunning floral designs, all the details came together perfectly. They've been together for a long time and met through their parents who are friends- we just love how close they all are! Congrats again, so happy for you both ❤️❤️❤️
Karli and Luke’s Winter Wedding | HUBBARD PARK LODGE
Karli and Luke love going for hikes, taking their dog for walks, sharing cozy nights in, and enjoying a campfire, so the atmosphere of Hubbard Park Lodge was perfect for their wedding ceremony and reception! They love the rustic feel and natural elegance of the space.
These two are just so sweet! Luke love's Karli's persistence and that she's kind, sweet, generous and family-oriented. Karli love's his sense of humor, that he likes to teach himself new skills, and that he's caring, nurturing and family-oriented as well! They're such a wonderful match

Jake and Jos Wedding Photos | Edgewater Hotel, Madison
Jake and Jos had a beautiful day for their Madison wedding! They had stunning lake views with their ceremony taking place outside of The Edgewater, and we love how they walked down the aisle together to start the big event!
Coordinating with The Edgewater's Art Deco architecture, Jos, Jake and their guests were right out of a roaring twenties movie with their attire and festive spirits!
Heide and Ryan’s Milwaukee Wedding | Mitchell Park Domes
Heide and Ryan are in love with everything vintage and mid-century, so they love the history and look of the Mitchell Park Domes where they chose to have both their wedding ceremony and reception. They did a great job of integrating colors and design aesthetics that worked well with the venue and with their own personal touches!
Heide said she loves so many things about Ryan. "He is one of the most talented and creative people that I know. I'm always fascinated with all of the wonderful creative projects he comes up with. I've never found someone that has the perfect blend of liking the same things that I like. He also has a great sense of humor!"
Fabian and Jesse’s Madison Wedding Photos | Garver Feed Mill Reception
Fabian and Jesse met at a Unity Day party in Germany when they were both posted as diplomats to Beijing, China. We love how they tied their story in with their wedding ceremony location, Freethinkers' Hall: it's in Jesse's hometown and has historical ties with German immigrants to Wisconsin.
