Jaclyn & Jason

The second wedding for me this weekend. But by no means an addition.

I met up with Jaclyn at Blush Beauty in the third ward. There an already beauty bride got her make-up done to perfection. Sarah and crew at Blush do such an amazing job at making the bride look like them, but enhance the their look.

We then went to Grace Lutheran in downtown Milwaukee. I love the Pastor here for his warm and insightful ceremonies. He mentioned that a marriage is not a 50/50 compromise. It is a 100/100 compromise. Marriage is so much of giving of yourself completely and not expecting a return.

I love seeing Jaclyn and Jason together, becuase they embody this ideal. They work so hard to make sure that the other is always happy. From making sure one has the wedding of their dreams to maybe even kissing in public. (I won't mention who does what)

We all then headed over to Lake Park for some photos and downtime for Jaclyn and Jason.

We then quickly headed over to The Pfister for a great reception.

I was entertained again from the music of Sound by Design. (Can you tell that I like to refer my favorite vendors out?) Paul and his crew put on a nice tear jerker video, followed by some great music.

I witnessed, what can only be a family tradition of a Meatloaf song. I think everyone there new the words and danced together.

Jaclyn was the stunning bride and Jason the ever loving husband. There are a fun couple with their friends, but so passionate alone. I feel honored to be a witness to their love. They a couple, have their own friends, but always come back together. They are strong alone, but unbreakable together.

I have so much love and respect for my Long Island friends. Long Island may be a cool place to live, but my new friends from there rock.

Smiles and hugs to all,

Neil

Meredith & Matt

What an honor to be a part of such a beautiful wedding. The attention for detail was unmistakable and remarkable thanks to the group effort of Dynamic Events.

I meet up with the girls, as they got ready in the Intercontinental Hotel. Listening to a little Justin and Brittany made for a great start to what was sure to be a fantastic party.

Meredith had Stella's come to do the hair and makeup of all the girls, as well to help update Meredith's hair and makeup for her evening change... they did a outstanding job of creating unique drama to each individual bridesmaid... oh and they rescued the grooms mother from a "topsie tail" disaster..

Meredith's Monique Lhuiller dress from Gigi's of Mequon was absolutely stunning... then later in the evening Meredith changed into her sassy 1920's almost glam evening look...

This reception in Pier Wisconsin's Pilot House was a sight to be held... fireworks, martinis, an amazing five-course dinner from Bartolotta’s, and even a modern choreographed dance for the Bride and Grooms first dance. I was personally blown away at how professional they looked as the moved across the floor.

Matt and Meredith really are one of those adorable loving couples that made the day... As amazing and beautiful that all the details were, nothing could hold a candle to the Bride and Groom and the families that love them.

Thank you again for having us as a part of your day...

Laura & Ty

Wow. Just an amazing wedding. Laura & Ty are just a really cool couple. They are relaxed and sweet, but tender and beautiful together.

We began the day at the Pfister with Blush doing perfect makeup. We then went over to St. John's Cathedral where Laura put on her stunning Monique Lhuillier dress from Gigi's of Mequon. Laura had a stunning two piece dress that just rocked. It had a stunning bottom that flowed down the aisle while the top has just enough sass to show how much fun she is to be around.

Everyone headed down to the Milwaukee Art Museum to see the stunning work of Dynamic Events. They created a colorful and fun event with a hologram dance floor and event that everyone danced till the band cut us off.

As Eron and I get close to all of our clients. I got to see how 300 guests can love two people so much; and when they could catch a moment alone, how the two of them love each other so intently. The two sides of their lives meld perfectly together. They can be in a crowd of family hugging while still having the other near and being happy. The strength of their love is an inspiration for all couples. They can smile or cry, but knowing that the other is always near, be perfectly happy.

Eron and I were honored to give Laura and Ty a ride in our car around town at the end of the night. Even though it was almost 1am, they vowed to continue their celebration out with friends. I hope that they had as much fun as we did and they can get some sleep.

Smiles and hugs
