Sometimes everything lines up just right in a photo, and when that happens, it’s magic. During Julianna and Bailey’s private vow reading, Olivia Simon captured excitement, suspense and love in one moment, as the bride’s beautiful natural curls blew in the breeze. The feeling is so palpable, we can almost feel the breeze ourselves.

Best Event Design - Events to a T (@eventstoat) 

Keersi and Jeffrey’s Door County wedding epitomized chic sophistication. Orchestrated by the talented team at Events to a T, the event exuded an air of refinement and elegance. Leveraging the modern atmosphere of Northern Haus, they curated a timeless color palette of neutrals. Luxurious white roses and linens with a subtle pattern adorned tables while black bows and brown velvet napkins at every place setting added a unique touch. The scene was further elevated by the warm glow of taper candles and tealights. From the first look to the celebratory Champagne tower, this opulent summer fête was picture-perfect.

Best Floral Details - Ebb & Flow Flowers (@ebbandflowflowers) 

Breathtaking floral details were on full display at Annie and Patrick’s chic Door County wedding. Sunny DuBois of Ebb & Flow Flowers crafted monochromatic bouquets of lush botanicals that effortlessly matched the bride’s gown, “Dahlia” by Monique Lhuillier, featuring a subtle floral pattern. Drawing on many local blooms sourced from Door County and Fox Valley, Sunny incorporated a wealth of flowers including cosmos, poppies and snapdragons. Greenery was foraged from nearby land and later replanted with a Door County resident’s help. These components seamlessly came together to create the ultimate garden-inspired celebration. With a timeless, neutral color palette, these botanical elements made a stunning statement at this al fresco wedding day.

Best Style - Brittany & Brett

Brittany and Brett definitely dressed the part for their sophisticated soirée at Bacchus in Milwaukee. She wore the sweeping “Bronte” crepe gown by Sarah Seven featuring a wide scoop neckline, hand-beaded pearls, ruched tulle sleeves and high-skirt slit. To complement her timeless look, the groom wore a traditional tuxedo and bow tie from Men’s Wearhouse. Together, they made a handsome pair.
