New on the blog: “Liz and Ryan have been together 14 years after being introduced by a mutual friend. After living in 9 apartments and 5 different cities together, they got engaged in the busy streets of Barcelona after a night of dancing.

For their wedding they had a 70’s theme and the flowers, china, and custom cookie favors all tied together perfectly. They used a vintage napkin holder for their cards, which we thought was such a cute and unique idea. They also had some vintage posters that they used as decor. All of us vendors loved this fun and different style!”

When your wedding reception is at the yacht club, it's practically mandatory to get photos in the marina!

Working with your wedding planner and photographer to schedule where you’d like to take your portraits is crucial to making sure everything runs on time.

Mary and Rachel are two of the most beautiful, authentic, loving souls I have ever had the pleasure of working with. We may have had to wait a whole year, but I'm so glad their big day finally arrived and was filled with all of the joy and love that they truly deserve.

It was such an honor to participate in Rachel and Shane Ebert's wedding day. Held in the backyard of Rachel's parent's Oak Creek home, the most memorable experience was listening to the personal, heartfelt vows they spoke to each other. I am so glad I was able to capture this moment on video, but also learn how these two forged an unparalleled bond together. Congratulations Rachel and Shane!

Alexandra & Adam were married at an outdoor ceremony at the Sharon Lynne Wilson Center for the Arts. Their unity ceremony was certainly unique (if not explosive!) We don't think we've ever seen anything like it!

Life is truly beautiful.
These two outright said F it all, and got married yesterday. Their day was nothing short of one of the greatest weddings I have ever had the honor of attending.
With no more than 15 people at their ceremony they saw each other for the first time coming down the aisle. Grace - a total badass teacher, amazing friend, and knock out. Sergio - your number one cheerleader for what you are passionate about, kind soul, velvet shoes!
They exited the church to a flurry of cheers and a Mariachi Band. Friends and family safely waited outside for them to come out as newly weds. The Mariachi band followed them as they marched down Brady St. to their home where they welcomed those who could not be a part of indoor festivities for an outdoor, distanced happy hour! (BRILLIANT, SAFE, and COST EFFECTIVE! Into it!)
We frolicked through the city they call home, while passers by celebrated their love. After seeing so many loved ones they headed to Cafe Centraal for an intimate dinner with those people who joined them in the church. Beautiful, heartfelt words were spoken by candle light, tears were very present in the best of ways.

This is a dream of a day.l - the amount of joy that flowed out of it was overwhelming. And for those of you who are having to drastically downsize - I know it sucks, but look at these two! They aren’t any less passionate and in love, AND had the MOST incredible day.

Congratulations love buns - I adore you!
