ASHLEY & ADAM | MEMORIAL UNION MADISON WEDDING

While planning a February 25th wedding in Madison, one would expect (and hope for) a snowy white dusting throughout the city. Despite the grounds being green just days before, it snowed in time for Ashley & Adam's wedding and could not have been more perfectly white! Their wedding day began at the Mansion Hill Inn, where Ashley & her ladies prepared for the beautiful day ahead. As soon as we arrived we were immediately energized by all of the love & excitement buzzing around their room! The charm of the Inn and abundance of natural light floating into the room was absolutely breathtaking. After sharing a glass of wine with her bridesmaids followed by a few portraits in front of the luxurious hotel, we made our way to the Wisconsin State Capitol so that Ashley could soak in a similar moment with Adam :)

On the third level of the pristine Capitol building, Adam waited for his bride to make her way over to his arms for their first look. Ashley was a radiant beauty as she glided across the marble floor to tap Adam on the shoulder and make her first wedding day memory of his handsome face! Shortly after, Ashley & Adam's ceremony in the Assembly Chamber was especially lovely and filled with so many cute moments between the two of them :)

A&A were more than willing to brave the slightly chilly air to create an unlimited amount of beautiful images with us, which we of course loved! Afterwards,  we headed to Memorial Union for their reception and were smitten over the soft white candlelit feel they brought to the Great Hall. From the romantic floral centerpieces by daffodil*parker to the menus and Ferrero Rocher place cards created by Ashley & Adam, they infused their celebration with so much of themselves... all the way down to a toasty warm signature drink!

The way Adam looks at Ashley and so effortlessly makes her laugh speaks volumes to their relationship. They adore their friends and family as much as they do one another, and since they dated for 6 years before reaching this point it felt like one big family celebrating together!

We are beyond grateful to have been a part of their fairytale wedding day and know that together, Ashley & Adam have found a lifetime of laughter together :) Thank you two SO much!!!

Love | K&B

Ashley's Great Grandmother's hankerchief + Grandmother's brooch made such pretty additions to her bouquet

BEAUTIFUL SARA | WAUSAU MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER

You know those friends who you can completely be yourself around? The ones who you are always excited to see and missing when it's been over a week? Your double dates, whether cozied up at one of your places with games and yummy apps or out at your favorite restaurant, are always filled with effortlessly entertaining and completely genuine conversation... Laughter fills the room and your cheeks hurt at the end of the night from all of that laughing and smiling... You would do absolutely anything for them and know that they can say the exact same thing about you. Well, we are so blessed to have friends like this, and we cherish them more than words can possibly describe :) For the last seven months we have been cheerleaders to the two of them as they prepare for their first baby, a sweet little boy named Lennon who is due to join their little family on May 20th! Lennon doesn't know it yet, but he is already so blessed with the most incredible parents who love him to the moon and back!!! We cannot wait to meet Lennon and are bursting with excitement for Sara and Brian!! Earlier this month on the most perfectly snowy Saturday, we waddled our way into a field of more than a foot of untouched snow and had so much fun creating these beautiful maternity photos together!! Sara was absolutely glowing, and we feel so lucky to have captured her overwhelming love for the little man inside of her :) Brian was out of town, but he will be making an appearance in her next maternity session in just a few weeks! Happy weekend, friends :D

Love | K&B

Sara, you are the most beautiful Mommy-to-be!!!

 

SABRINA & ROBB | SNOWY WINTER ENGAGEMENT

From the moment Sabrina & Robb contacted us we knew that we absolutely, positively had to get to know the two of them! They are adventurous, warm, and energetic -- all of which is completely contagious and made for such a fun engagement session!! The four of us met in downtown Wausau and cozied up for a glass of wine inside of the Back When Cafe before heading to Sabrina's parents' property for the rest of their session! We are SO looking forward to being a part of their Wausau Country Club wedding this August!!
