Anne and Dan's day was full of personality and intimate details! While I loved the fun and personal touches, like the hand-written letters and a location based table chart, what I really loved was their priorities. Anne and Dan made it crystal clear during our final meeting that they weren't terribly interested in gathering groups for portraits and posing for an hour straight. Their shot list was short. What they really wanted? Genuine moments. Spur of the moment group photos

"[...]Then it was on to cocktail hour....an absolute treat! Between the raptor demonstration and the food, there were smiles all around. The appetizers were from Tall Guy and a Grill and they were serving up chicken and waffle bites and tomato soup shooters. There was also a gorgeous charcuterie out that was loaded up with goodies."

It was a sunny, hot Saturday when Michelle and Mitchell tied the knot at this Eau Claire area venue. Located in Galesville, WI the Weltzien Family Round Barn offered a gorgeous round barn, outdoor ceremony area overlooking rolling hills, gardens, a covered bridge, and a bridal suite. Big rain storms threatened a wet, gloomy day just days leading up to their wedding, but we were blessed with beautiful, perfect skies! Seriously, look at that sky! The Weltzien Round Barn was abs

The speeches were sweet, funny, endearing. The dances were tear inducing. It was just a perfect night.
