Eclectic & Modern Wedding in Madison | Kim & James

This eclectic and modern wedding in Madison was everything I knew it would be!

From the first phone call with Kim and James, I knew that they were a couple after my own heart. They made their wedding day totally theirs with simple design details that really reflected them and their quirky personalities. They’re the kind of couple you just want to be friends with!

They started out their day getting ready in the Monona Terrace. Their details were simple and elegant with a twist on the unique. Kim bought her flowers that morning at the farmers market. Kim did her own makeup and hair with her friends as she getting ready.

Next, we met the guys at the capitol for Kim and James’ first look. We took wedding party photos before the ceremony to maximize our time together.

Their ceremony was simple and sweet. It was truly tailored to them both by their officiant. We took family photos after the ceremony with the gorgeous capitol view in the background. I convinced them to take a few more portraits on the roof of the terrace.

The Bur Oak hosted their reception and it was one of the coolest decorated events! The table decor of disco balls, dinosaurs and beautiful flowers and some extra sparkles was literally my dream come true. I was even able to convinced them to sneak out for a few final photos in the rain.

Days like this are why I photograph weddings. There was so much love in the air from the minute photos started, to the last cowbell bang. Eclectic and modern weddings in Madison are always some of my favorite. Don’t be afraid to be yourself and fill your day with intentional details and choices!
