Two worlds came together this past weekend in an union of a beautiful Wisconsinite and a handsome Irish-Chicagoan... And, what a day that it was!!

Bridal detail...

I loved Danielle's shoes... classy Badgley Mishkas and whimsy Toms.

Danielle got ready at her parents' house in Appleton.

Laughter and happy tears...

Meanwhile, the guys were getting ready at Radisson Paper Valley (thank you, Elegant Exposure for capturing Kevin and the guys at the hotel).

Kevin's many reactions to seeing his bride for the first time that day.

A beautifully happy moment...

They exchanged their vows at St. Bernadette Parish in Appleton.

I love how the apple tree blossom shadows dance in these photos... a perfect combination to the lace. 

Danielle made a beautiful bride.

We ventured to the historic Fox River Mills apartments for more photos.

The Grand Meridian was the perfect background for Danielle and Kevin's elegant reception.

There were a lot of Kentucky Derby fans at this wedding... they all cheered their favorites.

Kevin and his mom kicked off the dancing portion of the evening…

From slow dances, to an Irish jig, to limbo, to singing... it was definitely one evening no one will forget any time soon!

Thank you, Danielle and Kevin, for making me a part of your wedding day. 

Dziekuje.

Katie & Steven - a barn wedding photographer - Hortonville, WI

It's not every day that I get to photograph such a unique event... Katie and Steven got married in their own barn in front of their close friends and family... and horses (let's not forget their beloved, camera shy dog, Wren, and two cats).

Katie and Steven did a great job preparing the barn for their big day!

The ceremony was performed by Joan Burrill of Better Together Ceremonies.

Since it was super windy, we stayed in the barn for their wedding portraits.

Gorgeous wedding bling!

Love this photo of the newlyweds. 

Not only can one see the love and commitment for each other, but also to their way of life and horses.

It was my pleasure to be a part of their big day.

Thank you!

Dziekuje!
