Summer Bridal Designs Showcase Effortless Elegance in Door County

The warmth and relaxation of the warmest season is evoked in this beachside bridal shoot in Northern Wisconsin..

December 15, 2023

As an homage to the seasons ahead of us, Wisconsin Bride's Spring/Summer 2024 issue designed a fashion shoot to showcase trends in bridalwear that fit seamlessly into the gentle elegance of Door County's locale. Texture and draping find themselves center stage with these hand-crafted creations featuring lace and mesh with unbothered ease.

Check out footage from the shoot at Whitefish Dunes State Park in Sturgeon Bay and the shoot at Alpine Resort in Egg Harbor. Videography by Michael Gehrman Filmworks.
