Bridal Show



We had a great time at the Madison, Wisconsin Wedding Planner & Guide bridal show the weekend of January 15 & 16th. With almost 200 wedding vendors, it is a great place to start wedding planning. And with almost 1,500 brides, along with their family and friends, it was one busy place! We had fun showing off some new albums and engagement books. We also had the Cheeky Booth there and show attendees were able to check it out and have their photos taken in the booth, complete with 2 photo strips to take home.

This Saturday, January 29th, we will be at Spielman's Bridal Open House in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, from 1pm to 4pm.

Nicole & Nathan






Nicole and Nathan were such a sweet couple! The cool, cloudy, misty weather was no match for the love and warmth that they shared with everyone they talked to that day. There were so many emotions, from Nicole and Nathan, as well as their family and friends- it was hard to not cry right with them! The colors they used were some of my favorites. I love brown dresses, especially with pink flowers. And their candy buffet was a hit with all the guests, not just the kids.

Marieke & Andrew







Casual, laid-back weddings can sometimes have more interesting details than formal ones. Marieke and Andrew were married in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin and had their wedding reception in a barn across the border in Illinois. From the roses in mason jars to the doughnuts on the tables as favors to the man calling directions for square dancing, they made their day unique.
