John and Ashley :: Door County Wedding!

A wedding full of fall-colors, great textures and the BEAUTIFUL scenery of the Horseshoe Bay beach club in Door County, WI! :) All inspired by old black-and-white Carry Grant movies…..tall candelabras, a lush wedding dress and a dapper groom in a black bow-tie! :) The vision that Ashley dreamed up was amazing! :)

The guests were greeted by the crashing waves of Lake Michigan and were wined and dined with amazing food, delicious macaroons and heart-felt toasts to the bride and groom! :) It was quite great that everyone around the over-sized square table-arrangement got a chance to toast the newlyweds! :)

Ashley and John ended the night with a BIG hand and surprised guests with a Trolly-ride through scenic parts of door county and ended with a stop at the famous WILSONS for a late-night ice cream snack (John’s fave family ice cream parlor)! :)

YAY! What a night of celebration and fun! :) Congrats you two! :)

Millie and Ben :: Door County wedding

I’ve been DYYYYYYING to share Millie and Ben’s wedding! :) The KNOT featured it last week, so I am jumping on the chance now that I’m free to share it myself!

A STUNNING location, amazing blooms, fabulous details, joyful families, extra-smiley wedding party and two amazingly, laid back people full of LOVE and life and so much JOY! :) This was the essence of Millie and Ben’s wedding day! :) They tied the knot at Ben’s family get-away home just outside of Fish, Creek in Door County, Wisconsin! They wanted something laid back, personal and full of the amazing beauty of the summers they have spent in Door County……the water, the breeze and the lush and rocky shorelines! :) It was perfect!

Guests had an amazing view of the lake AND Millie and Ben as they said their vows on the lawn next to the house under the giant shade tree. Drinks, a beer truck, and appetizers, made by Ben’s uncle, were near the outdoor rock patio with dinner on the outdoor tennis court. Lined with strings of lights and candle light from the tables, guests dove into their 4 course meal and amazing dessert trio, again, made by Ben’s fabulous Uncle Geoff! :) Dancing under the stars with the cool, lake breeze made the night complete! :)

HOORAY for you, Millie and Ben! :) We just LOVE LOVE LOVED your big day…and I am so thrilled to share it! :)

Kate and Connor :: Woodwalk Gallery, Door County!

Yup…..that wedding! The one that you can’t stop thinking about or getting out of your head for like a year! :) That wedding. The one that was so magical that you felt like you were swept up and carried away on a unicorn to a far off, happy-go-wedding land with wispy baby’s breath bouquets, a bride that giggles more than breaths, a Sinatra-like-daperesque groom, a wedding party that wanted to have the time of their life, stunning details that make my lens happy, family with permanent smiles and meaningful speeches that make my heart skip a beat! :) THAT WEDDING! :)

It was Kate and Connors wedding in Door County. At the AMAZING Woodwalk Gallery just outside of Egg Harbor; which was pulled together and planned without a hitch with the help of the fabulous Carried Baldwin of Door County Weddings! Perfection…..sheer perfection! :) The day began with giggling ladies filling Kate’s family’s home on the shores of Lake Michigan……mimosa’s in hand and Door County chocolate covered cherries in the other! Followed by some photos and a ride in the famous Door County trolly. It dropped everyone off at the ceremony site, where guests were greeted by the sounds of the waves crashing against the rocky shores and the view of the beautiful, sunny picturesque backdrop as Kate and Connor promised their lives and hearts to one another! :) The reception soon followed with a live jazz bank, old fashioned drinks, amazing cocktails, funny stories from family and friends as well as tasty food and good company! The night proceeded with dinner, dancing with another LIVE band, drinks, photoboothing, an AMAZING chocolate bar and a surprise fireworks display that had everyone oooo-ing and awweee-ing! It was the night of a lifetime! :)

This wedding day was just a glimpse…a little peek…into Kate and Connor’s sylish, down-to-earth, happy personalities as they celebrated with everyone they loved! :) Awesome. Just awesome!
