For those of us who attended UW Madison, there is a part of you that comes alive when you hear a good marching band. Having a wedding featuring the UW Marching band is almost like a homecoming, and also like the start of a new chapter. This is a love story. Yes it is a love story between MaryClaire and Patrick. It is also love of the UW Marching Band for your Madison Wedding. Does it feature the UW Marching Band’s 5th Quarter performance? Yes, complete with Bucky Badger.

Celebrations matter. Celebrations matter because we bring our communities, our families, our people together so rarely. A wedding day isn’t the day that two people decide to spend their lives together – that is an ongoing process, started before the wedding, lasting throughout their marriage. A wedding day is simply the day that we choose to celebrate it – that we say to our communities “we have chosen each other”, and that your community gets to finally party! And that is pretty much what happened for Emma and Al’s wedding at the Madison Club. A totally gorgeous day, a breaking…
If what they say is “Nothing is forever” Then what makes, then what makes, then what makes Then what makes, what makes, what makes Love the exception? -Outkast (Hey Ya) One major problem with shooting weddings all year round is that I end up fairly busy all year round. It is lovely to have a mix of temperatures and seasons and people, but it also means I never have a long “blogging month” anymore. Which is to say, I’m only now catching up on blogging all the amazing couples I got to work with last year. Not least of which…
I don’t know that there is anything more I can say than this image already says – Betsy and Nic and Madison’s capitol from the Edgewater hotel, after a full day of wedding and celebrating and laughing. Also, no rain.
Thoughts on a Madison Wedding, finding inspiration, and civic architecture’s role on marriage. But how is a taste in this beautiful art to be formed in our countrymen, unless we avail ourselves of every occasion when public buildings are to be erected, of presenting to them models for their study & imitation? – Thomas Jefferson (in discussing the construction of the Capitol Building in Washington DC) Whenever I find myself in Madison I always hope to spend time at the Madison capitol building, one of the best pieces of civic architecture in the country. It is open to the public…
Madison wedding at the Majestic Theater and Madison Central Library Is there a better metaphor for a wedding day than a second line brass band? To walk, with all your guests, in shared celebration. On display for the world to see, but also asking that larger community to join in your joy, to celebrate with you as well as witness your wedding? All of which is to say, Elisabeth and Brian’s wedding was so much fun. We don’t always think of a Second Line march outside of New Orleans (and they have it down to a science there!) but when…
Bridget and Chris has a mix of classic and modern for their Blackhawk wedding. Black tuxes and cheese curds never mingled so well.
There are so many reasons to choose Tripp Commons for your wedding at the UW Madison Memorial Union. Unlike the more colonial formality of the Great Hall at the Memorial Union, Tripp commons is notable for its Tutor inspired dark wood spaces and stunning balcony space overlooking the Terrace. WEDDINGS AT TRIPP COMMONS Tripp Commons is one of the formal spaces at the Memorial Union, perfect for dancing, toasting, and celebrating. The most notable part of Tripp Commons is the dark wood accents on the ceiling and walls – bringing a more “old world” feel to the space. It also…
