Tina {wedding | madison, wi}

Tina's wedding was taking place at the Lussier Family Heritage Center in Fitchburg, Wisconsin. She comes from a very large family of 13 kids and she is the baby of the family. You can imagine the emotions in the hotel room. I arrived to some very excited sisters and everyone was so so nice. All the sisters got a sweatshirt form Tina with "sister of the bride" and their birth number on the back.

If you know me, you know I'm into crafty DIY projects. So when one of the sisters presented Tina with a paper bag album in a steampunk theme I couldn't resist asking 21 questions. The sister (Victoria) makes all kinds of crafty things. She has a blog but I just couldn't find it...

Nicole {wedding | camp wandawega | elkhorn, wi}

 This last Saturday I traveled to Elkhorn again for a wedding but this time we got ready at Camp Wandawega. It was the ideal vintage cottage location there were so many neat things there, (might even have a new DIY project, see butterflies) if you ever get a chance to stay there do it! I met the manager as soon as I walked up and he was so nice and you could tell he had a good heart. Then as I was setting up I met the Mother of the son that owns that camp. She had been bringing her family to this camp for many years. (there is an article in Martha Stewart Living on the camp and the owners) Then I met the wife that owns the camp and she was so eclectic and down to earth, I wanted to be friends with these guy immediately! 

The bride, Nicole, was having a very small wedding party, just one bridesmaid. She is in the stunning champagne and gold dress above. (which she got at a bargain price. after finding it at shop bop she waited and ended up finding on piperlime for half the price, woohoo!) Nicole's dress was a show stopper, very vintage feel with all the glitz and glam of another era. I did a soft wave on Nicole (finish look not posted, shoot) and just helped the bridesmaid with her headband. I wish all my brides could be as fun and chill as these last three were! 

Kathleen {wedding | lake ripely, wi}

Another amazing bride this last weekend. Kathleen and her family have had a house on Lake Ripley for many, many years. They have made the trek up to the lake house so many times, why not get hitched there?!  I didn't have a chance to stick around too long but I got to see some of the cute decorations they were displaying at the house (where happy hour would be) and as I was leaving I noticed a cross stitch heart with B + K embraced in a hoop and a tiny bouquet of baby's breath in the mailbox flag.... these guys were fun, cute, and I wish them many years of bliss!

Keely {wedding | elkhorn, wi}

This last weekend was a crazy one but very rewarding! With my Grand Opening Friday night(post to follow) and an amazing, unique wedding Saturday I just had to share some Instagram pics...

Keely's wedding was held at Camp Wandawega in Elkhorn, Wisconsin. Her and her family were some of the nicest people I have ever met! I met her and her mom a couple months ago when she came in for a bridal trial. She was such an easy going bride and very kind to all who surround her. She even did "thank you" bags for the guests & vendors which included ponchos, flashlights, wine, snacks, bottled water, and bug repellant. Keely resides in Chicago with her now husband while both their families are pretty spread out so why not have a destination wedding at a very unique, vintage feel, campground?!

Stay tuned for some professional pics of this wedding.
