South Shore Pavilion Wedding | Milwaukee

Beautiful Late May South Shore Pavilion Wedding in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

This south shore pavilion wedding in Milwaukee, WI was one of our favorite weddings of the year. We shot Leanna and Laith’s engagement photos in Yosemite last fall. You can check out those photos by clicking this link.

These two work together so well, it made our jobs a breeze! We began the day with prep photos at the Kinn hotel in Bay View, Wisconsin. They have awesome natural light in all the rooms there and it worked perfectly with prep photos. After we finished up with prep photos, we did the first look right there at the hotel.

The reception for this wedding was so beautifully set up. The natural light pouring in from the windows made the table sets a joy to photograph. They had pies for desert from the local pie shop, Honeypie Café.

We began dinner with a traditional Turkish Dabke dance. After dinner and speeches we went out to catch sunset over Lake Michigan. If you’ve ever been to South Shore beer garden in Bay View, you know how beautiful sunset over the Milwaukee skyline is.

They also had us create a wedding film of their wedding day. You can check that out below!
