A fairytale day for Taryn and Max. Butter yellow bridesmaid dresses paired beautifully with blush pink florals, while warm wood tones, crystal chandeliers and glowing table lamps gave the reception an intimate, romantic feel.
Max kept it sleek in an all black look while Taryn stunned in a layered ruffle gown. Striped details carried throughout the day, even making an appearance on the bar menu alongside illustrations of their pups. Guests were treated to Flapdoodles ice cream before Taryn and Max slipped away for dreamy sunset portraits among the yellow wildflowers.
Congratulations, Taryn and Max!

Ten years before their wedding, Madison Kuhlmann and Carlo Pauldine first crossed paths as freshmen at, of all places, University of Wisconsin–Madison. They shared the same friend group throughout college and beyond graduation. What began as a teenage friendship eventually shifted into something more. After years of shared adventures—traveling, cooking and gathering friends around the table—the pair settled in Minnesota, where Madi grew up. 

When it came time to plan their celebration, the couple looked to one of their favorite shared passions: traveling through Europe. Belle Ame Vineyard in River Falls, with its rolling landscape and rustic architecture, reminded them of drives through the Italian countryside and offered the perfect backdrop for an outdoor summer gathering. The ceremony came to life in the vineyard’s open field, where a curved aisle framed with herbs and florals led to a wooden platform built by the father of the bride. The groom’s father officiated, adding a personal touch to the vows.

Cocktail hour followed beneath the pavilion, where a lively performance from a band that specializes in “Hot Club Swing,” a style near and dear to the newlyweds. Dinner unfolded in the courtyard patio with a coursed, family-style meal of Italian fare—such as caprese, pizza and pasta—served at a winding arrangement of head tables. Before the evening transitioned indoors for dancing, guests were treated to cake and limoncello poured tableside, a fitting nod to Carlo’s Italian heritage and the couple’s love of hosting memorable meals.

Marcelia Nicholson and Renwick Bovell’s wedding brought 250 guests together for an elegant celebration of love. The pair were introduced by the mayor of St. Louis, connecting them through public service positions in different states. Their love grew from shared devotion to God and deeply held values. After a year of long-distance dating, a starlit proposal stunned the bride-to-be under a full moon in Punta Cana. 

True romantics, Marcelia and Renwick wanted a thoughtfully styled wedding fit for a king and queen. A faith-centered ceremony in the stunning Victorian Gothic Revival-style church was subtly accented by cello covers of the couple’s favorite love songs. A live saxophonist stylishly ushered guests into a regal cocktail hour at The Wisconsin Club. 

In a playful nod to the Bovell name, bows adorned the luxuriously lit reception and decorated a towering ch*****ne pour. A classic color palette held deep meaning for the bride and groom: gold and white honored their enduring commitment, black represented Renwick’s steady and serious strength, and abundant sparkle shone like Marcelia’s personality.

From the moment their wedding day began, Maddie and Garrett brought an infectious energy that made celebrating their love oh so easy. Sipping on espresso martinis through hair and makeup, Maddie infused the getting ready process with a playful air with her bridal party by her side - in their adorable pajama sets, of course. The bride exuded an effortless elegance in a ruched, fitted gown with off the shoulder sleeves and a simple but stunning veil, prompting happy tears from Garrett in his emotional first look. 

On the stunning grounds of Geneva National, a palette of ivory and blush came to fruition through lush arrangements of hydrangeas, white roses, delicate baby’s breath and dramatic green amaranthus adorning woven baskets and simple ceremony pillars. Like soft rays of sunshine, the bridesmaids donned butter yellow satin gowns, rounding out the September scene with an airy warmth.
After the bride and groom officially tied the knot, the party truly kicked off. Maddie and Garrett celebrated their newlywed status dancing on a packed dance floor to a live band, making their wedding day a lively party they wished would never end.

Bathed by sun and shimmering lakefront views, Hannah Johnson and Henry Houden’s black-tie wedding celebrated their Midwestern roots. Though the pair both grew up in the Madison area, attending neighboring high schools and moving in shared circles, they didn’t officially meet until winter break of their freshman year in college. Despite the distance—Henry at University of Wisconsin–Madison and Hannah at Miami University in Ohio—their connection deepened over time, blossoming into a love that would carry them to a beautiful life together in Chicago. 

A radiant wedding celebrated their shared beginning and bright future. Following a timeless Catholic ceremony at Blessed Sacraments Church, a trolley brought the wedding party to the Wisconsin State Capitol to capture a classic Madison photo op. 

Transitioning seamlessly into a romantic reception, The Edgewater Hotel’s terrace hosted a cocktail hour for guests while the couple had a private sneak peek of the hotel’s exquisite ballroom, fully draped to create a clean, elevated canvas for a refined palette of black, white and soft ivory. Delicate calla lilies anchored the floral design with fresh pops of gentle green, balancing organic touches with geometric intentionality. The couple’s monogram, two interlaced H’s, decorated stationery, cocktail napkins and commemorative matchboxes.
