Leah and L.J.’s wedding was held at one of the most unique venues I have ever seen - their CrossFit gym! I love that they chose a location that was such a big part of their relationship. They spent a lot of thought and time transforming the gym into a beautiful reception venue complete with string lights hanging over the dance floor. For dinner guests could choose between two food trucks - Truck Meister and Hard Wood Cafe. They served an assortment of desserts including Nothing Bundt Cakes. It was a beautiful day and guests were able to easily move between inside and outside with the open garage door. I think it’s safe to say everyone was thoroughly impressed at what these two managed to do to the gym!
Melissa + Jake's Wedding at Onesto
I’ve known Melissa for years, so I was incredibly honored when she asked me to be a part of her wedding day. She has always had a great eye for fashion and style and you can clearly see she had an incredible vision for her wedding day. I loved that Melissa and Jake had a very intimate wedding with just their families, because family is so important to both of them. An extra special detail was that they asked Melissa’s grandparents to sign their marriage license!

2019 Year In Review
Our 2019 wedding season was incredible! We got to work with some really amazing couples, experience some venues for the first time, and travel out of state for two destination weddings. We enjoyed working alongside of many creative vendors to produce some breathtaking weddings. Each year seems to just fly by and I really enjoyed looking back over all of our weddings as I put this recap together. Enjoy!
Navigating Your Wedding Registry
Some of you may be wondering ‘what exactly is the point of a wedding registry and do I really need one?’ I know many modern couples feel they already have everything they need for their home, especially if they have already been living together for years. And let’s face it, most people are hoping for CASH! But keep in mind, you will want to register for at least some items for your bridal shower at the very least. And while at most weddings these days we see very few actual gifts, some of your guests would really enjoy and prefer to buy you a gift rather than gift you money.
How To Incorporate Food Trucks Into Your Wedding
Who doesn’t love food trucks? They are so much fun, especially at a wedding! They are extremely versatile, can arrive in many shapes and sizes and can serve all types of cuisines. Today I’m going to share a few different ways to incorporate a food truck (or two) into your wedding plans as well as tell you about some of the unique options Milwaukee has to offer.
Bridesmaids Gift Box Ideas
I’m sure you’ve seen these adorable fun filled gift boxes floating around on Pinterest. I think they are such a sweet gesture to give to your best gals either as a way of asking them to stand up in your wedding or as a thank you gift on the wedding day. These gift boxes typically contain items such as sweets, mini bottles of champagne, and personalized gifts. They can be purchased online (most commonly on Etsy); however, for those of you that are crafty, you might have more fun putting them together yourself!
