Jenny & Kory - Winter Wedding in Wisconsin

Jennifer and Kory are a super cool couple. You might remember their super romantic coffee shop engagement session. They tied the knot the second week of March on a bright and breezy cold day.

It was an honor to have photographed both the son (Andy) and daughter (Jenny) of the Lauer family. When I shoot multiple weddings in a family it is so special to see the parents and even the grandparents again.... and even new little babies! Congrats to Andy and Teresa on their second little miracle.

Now on to my wedding day favs....




Jenny got the idea of having a special fragrance for the wedding from her maid of honor. I just totally love this idea and recommend it to every bride. Choose a special perfume and wear it on your wedding day, then every time you wear the scent you will instantly be reminded of your wedding and all the feelings and emotions you experienced that day.










The freezing wind and snow covered ground didn't hinder the ability to get beautiful and heart warming photographs.







I just LOVE this groom's cake - incorporating the Kory's love of camping and Van Halen....




I think it is so neat when a DJ invites daughters and fathers and sons and mothers out on the dance floor during the dance. I love walking around on the dance floor with my camera and photographing all the different parent child relationships celebrating along with the bride and groom.

Congratulations Jenny and Kory - it was an honor to photograph your wedding day!

Dara and Tony - Winter Wedding in Wisconsin

This year is very special! I had three weddings in three weeks all in cold and snowy weather. Usually when a bride plans her wedding in Wisconsin they usually shy away from months like February and March. The weather can be such a toss-up. It can be 60 degrees and sunny one day and snow 8.5" the next.

Dara and Tony were married the first weekend of March in a Combined Locks Catholic Ceremony. Their wedding resembled their fun and laid back personalities.

Here are some of my favorites from the day:










The reception was held at the Bridgewood Resort in Neenah. This little guy totally stole the show! He was only 5 or 6 but had the moves of a seasoned entertainer.

Congratulations Dara and Tony!

Winter wonderful wedding! | Milwaukee Wedding Photographer

I remember talking to Jane on the phone just a few months ago when she and Patrick were in the midst of wedding planning. It's pretty cool when a couple will select their wedding date based on my availability. She was hoping for a wintery snow-filled day... if it didn't happen we would do an "Ever After" session on another day with snow in the forecast. Luckily for Jane and Pat, the forecast for February 26 included the beautiful white confetti they dreamed about.








The couple did a "first look" on the rooftop deck of the Hotel Metro. The moments Jane and Patrick shared in privacy were captured in a beautiful even light. What a way to start their wedding day!









This group loves to play trivia at the Brat House. Part of this bunch is an Ardent 2009 bride and groom who also is the Milwaukee Quizmaster. I can't wait to head down and play some trivia with you guys!




Jane is a wedding invitation designer and co-owner of 2Hearts1Design. She designed so many amazing things for their wedding... including custom hankies, a pin-up board guest book, a custom cupcake and Jimmie Square stand and a totally amazing folding wedding program.




Coverage ended that evening in the midnight hour at The Landmark Lanes. It was so cute to see everyone in their wedding best hitting the lanes for the midnight bowl.


What a way to kick off 2011! Jane and Patrick, I am so honored to be present on your day with camera in hand. I wish you as much love as snowflakes that fell from the sky that day. Congratulations!
