Aliza & David are married – again! Last year when so many plans were canceled, Aliza & David had a mini wedding day in the backyard. It was nothing less than perfect. In 2021, they still had their date at the Meadowbrook Country Club so they decided to throw an epic anniversary party. Planning the […]

Steph & Andy are expecting! Exciting things are happening for Steph & Andy! In November, they were married at the cutest spot in the midwest: Belfre Kitchen. See their awesome day here.

Little Vivienne is almost one! We saw her last year, when her mom, Laura, was growing her. Now that she’s Earth-side, we’ve learned that Vivienne is smiley, happy and just the sweetest little bean. Vivienne is about to be upgrade to Big Sister roll when her little brother arrives this fall! I cannot wait to […]

Abby & Marshall are married! We knew Abby & Marshall’s wedding at St. James 1868 and the Pritzlaff was going to be beautiful. But I don’t think we knew just how beautiful it would turn out to be. Abby planned this with the help of Cori from the Pritzlaff and the strong team behind Events […]

Katie & Matt are married! When I walked into Katie’s room on the morning of their wedding, Katie sweetly smiled at me and said, “Hi Shannon. I didn’t sleep one minute last night.” Her nerves were high and, to be honest, she was pretty nervous for the big day! Working with Tiara from Events to […]

Jackie & Kevan are married! A few years ago, TJ boldly professed his favorite venue in Milwaukee is the War Memorial Museum.

Danielle & Mike are expecting! A few years ago, Danielle & Mike graced the blog for their engagement and wedding photos.

Taylor & Taylor are married! When you think of perfect wedding days, Taylor & Taylor might be the epitome. As we drove out to Delafield to meet the wedding parties at the Delafield Hotel, we noted how perfect the weather was. Little did we know then that the entire day would live up to this. […]

Samantha & Zach are married! In 2012, Samantha & Zach met while working together at a Marquette University reception desk as students. They were friends for a while but Zach romantically asked Sam to be his girlfriend at a casino in Minnesota. That last sentence should tell you a little bit about Samantha & Zach. […]

Makenzie & Erik are engaged! For Kenzie & Erik’s engagement photos, we met them in Madison – they’re old stomping ground. As we walked along the streets of Madison and the Memorial Union, they reminisced on their days there. These two met in true Badger fashion: at a Badger football tailgate party. Erik is friends […]

Ashley & Ian are engaged! When we initially met with Ashley & Ian, they filled us in on all the details of their *then* wedding plans. Two weeks later the pandemic hit and their plans went spiraling – just a little. Their venue wasn’t able to fulfill the contract, forcing Ashley & Ian to move […]

Welcome to the world, sweet Fiona! Her brother, Murray, is graced our blog before as a teeny, tiny newborn. But, he’s the big brother now and he must protect Fiona against bears in the woods.

Rosie & Cathal are engaged! When Cathal woke up hungover after a raging Halloween, he almost cancelled his first Tinder date with Rosie. Luckily he pulled himself together and most importantly, took off the awesome murdered leprechaun costume. Cathal helped shake off a hangover with some cider at Watershed in Chicago. They ended up losing […]
