KAYLA & RYAN - MOUNT OLIVE LUTHERAN CHURCH WEDDING CEREMONY AND GRAND MERIDIAN RECEPTION PHOTOGRAPHER - APPLETON, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

This golf loving couple tied the knot on one of the hottest days this wedding season. But, looking at the photos, the only thing one can see is love… and lots of it!

Kayla with her mom and sister.

A sweet moment with dad and mom.

The groom with his parents. Fun fact: Ryan’s dad was also his best man!

The first look was one of the sweetest moments I have photographed in a long time :)

The ceremony took place at the New Hope Lutheran Church in Appleton.

Hands…

We sought shelter from the heat at Plamann Park.

Gorgeous wedding dress detail.

The reception was at the Grand Meridian.

Thank you, Kayla and Ryan, for making me a part of your beautiful wedding day.

Dziekuje!

COURTNEY & PATRICK - WHISPERING SPRINGS GOLF CLUB WEDDING CEREMONY AND RECEPTION PHOTOGRAPHER - FOND DU LAC, WI - GOSIA'S PHOTOGRAPHY

The weather the whole week before Courtney and Patrick’s wedding day was so rainy, that even I was looking at the forecast. All the worrying was for nothing; the weather turned gorgeous for Courtney and Patrick’s special day!

The bridal bling…

Personalized Converse shoes and one of the most beautiful veils ever.

Growing up in Wisconsin, everyone knows that when it comes to football, the Minnesota Vikings are one of the Green Bay Packer’s biggest rivals… but this wedding couple tried to bridge the ‘differences’ even if by a small wedding detail. :)

Patrick shared the story behind the tie pin with me… and then, I had the chance to photograph his mom’s reaction to his decision to wear the pin on the day of his wedding.

Courtney asked if we could do the first look (btw, I love photographing those moments)… this time, Patrick’s best friend ‘went’ first… oh, and there was so much laughter! There were even jokes that perhaps, Kody isn’t the only fake bride seeking the first look…

I’m so glad we used the reception room as the background for the first look. The room at the Whispering Springs Golf Club is simple but that is what makes it great!

The ceremony…

Bridal party photos were taken on the golf grounds…

A beautiful set up in the dining room…

After dinner, we snuck out for a couple of sunset photos… what a beautiful day for a beautiful wedding.
