Katy and Steve have an awesome story. Their aunts are friends and decided these two would be perfect for each other. So, as the aunts were hosting a rummage sale, these two were set up to “accidently” meet. Turns out, Katy and Steve are perfect for each other. It was very easy to see how much they compliment each other.
The weather on their wedding day wasn’t so perfect. Rain started at 2PM that day and did. not. stop. Their outdoor ceremony at the beautiful Veterans Terrace was moved to the covered patio. Despite the rain and cool, Wisconsin weather it didn’t stop these two and their guests. It was a packed house for the celebration!

Katy + Steve’s advice for future couples:
“You hear it from everywhere, but really, don’t sweat the small stuff. People remember the experience they had, not what the place cards looked like, whether the bridesmaids’ shoes matched, or any other detail you may be stressing about. Also, it’s okay if it rains. :)”
