Oh how much we adore these two! We've had Libby & Allen's wedding day on our calendar for over TWO years! From the moment Libby got in touch with us about being her and Allen's wedding photographers we knew we were going to fall in love with them! Their story is adorable, and seeing them together is even more adorable!
Even though we had talked, emailed & snapped each other endlessly, the first time we actually met in person was their engagement session along the Mississippi River near Prescott, Wisconsin. Put simply, they are SO easy to photograph. They're best friends and their love for one another was bursting in front of our cameras. From then on, their wedding day at the Milwaukee Art Museum could not get here soon enough!
The white canvas of the museum complimented Libby & Allen's sense of amazing style beautifully. And seriously, those Louboutins were meant to be worn in that venue and on Libby's feet! The Art Museum holds special meaning to Libby & Allen as that's where they went on their first date and on the day Allen proposed. Since they became engaged, the two of them collected vintage tea pots for their centerpieces to be filled with lilacs and spring blooms by Libby's Aunt. And did we mention Libby's mom, Kris, created the most gorgeous table linens as well as the bridesmaid dresses and Libby's sparkly reception dress & veil!
As if we didn't have enough beauty on their wedding day, mother nature rolled in the perfect shade of fog that was thick enough to get lost in the sea of white! It was as if it was Libby, Allen, & their family and friends had the museum all to themselves and downtown Milwaukee was nowhere to be found (or seen)!
Libby & Allen, we adore you two, wish you were our neighbors, and are bursting with happiness that you now call each other husband & wife! Thank you for trusting us to document your marriage that was years-in-the-planning! Our hearts are full when we look at your photographs and how HAPPY the two of you were on your perfect day in Milwaukee :)
Love, Kelsy & Butch
