Meagan + Sam | Madison, Wisconsin | Simple Summer Downtown Wedding at The Tinsmith

By

We love when HUE becomes part of the family! We first met Meagan and Sam in Spring of 2020 after receiving a referral from Meagan’s sister Whitney, who we had already been planning an August of 2020 wedding with. Sadly Whitney and David’s wedding needed to be postponed due to Covid, and the joke was that Meagan + Sam just took their date instead, a year later!

We appreciated the simple elegance these two desired, knowing that their venue, The Tinsmith, did not need much dressing up. Instead, the focus could remain solely on the joy of coming together. Speaking of that, their family’s got the opportunity to do this twice in just one month’s time between the two sister’s weddings, where each served as the other’s Maid of Honor!

We loved that Meagan + Sam didn’t take themselves too seriously, and made sure to have a lot of fun sprinkled in throughout the day – with the photos to prove it!⁠

Congrats again, M + S!

We loved all the beautiful greens and simple summery blooms from Daffodil Parker sprinkled throughout the venue and in girls’ bouquets!

Sam’s reaction to his soon-to-be-bride was one of the sweetest we’ve seen. These two partied their way right back down the aisle and headed out on the town for some Madison area photos!

It was so special for our HUE crew to help with both of these sisters’ big days! Their love for each other and bond are so evident.

Congratulations again, Meagan + Sam! It was an honor to play a role in your beautiful day and the start of your marriage!

Abbe + Kevin | Madison, Wisconsin | Elegant Glam Burgundy + Gold Wedding at The Tinsmith

By

With wedding colors of burgundy and gold, I knew I was going to like Abbe + Kevin from the start. Add on the fact that Abbe had spent a decade herself as a wedding photographer, with an additional degree in Event Management, and we immediately clicked from day one of working together!

Everything about Abbe + Kevin’s wedding at The Tinsmith had personal touches, from Abbe’s grandmother’s charm pinned to her bouquet, to the elegant DIY-ed signage, all the way to playing Star Wars music for the Grand March! Yep, they’re that cool.

Our HUE crew especially loved listening to the toasts from those near and dear to the couple, easily feeling the amount of support radiating for them within the room. It was something truly special.

Congrats Abbe + Kevin! Thanks for choosing us to help you celebrate your beautiful big day! Enjoy all the gorgeous detail from their special celebration below!

Every element of their day, down to the smallest detail of Abbe’s accessories, embodied glam and elegance!

If you’re looking for a Downtown Madison wedding venue with modern, industrial, and greenhouse vibes, look no further than The Tinsmith! The rich emerald details and plants throughout the venue complimented the burgundy jewel tones and greenery in Abbe + Kevin’s day perfectly.

The special community, love, and support that surrounds this couple were radiant throughout the course of their wedding day!

Elegant gold details give the perfect touch to this clean reception look sprinkled with luscious greenery. We’re obsessed with this DIY seating chart sign they created as well, aren’t you?

This stunning 3-tiered cake from Craig’s Cake Shop was almost too pretty to eat. We said almost, though! 😉

Congratulations again, Abbe + Kevin!

Rachel + Mike | Waterloo, Wisconsin | Relaxed + Vibrant Summer Wedding at The Wildwood Barn & Cottage

By

Rachel and Mike’s sweet and charming wedding day at The Wildwood Barn & Cottage was everything we love about summer weddings!With their amazing smiles and good-natured vibes, these two were one of the sweetest couples we’ve ever had the opportunity to work with.

Their wedding day was the perfect mix of relaxed but traditional, full of vibrant summer color, and incorporated many personal elements significant to them as a couple. We loved all the sweet details of their day and exploring a new venue that we can’t wait to be back at again!

See more from Rachel + Mike’s July Wisconsin wedding day down below!

The Wildwood Barn & Cottage’s location is a tucked-away treat with plenty of trees, a hidden pond with trails, rustic barns, a charming cottage, and the most wonderful owners who turned their family’s farm into a Wisconsin wedding slice of heaven!

Rachel and Mike decided to have both a ceremony in a church and an outdoor ceremony at their reception location – the best of both worlds!

Guests enjoyed dancing the night away under the stars and café lights outside the bar barn (bar-n, if you will) and s’mores over the fire pit at sundown alongside an ice cream cart! Also, how breathtaking are the sunset photos of these two?

All the best to Rachel and Mike – congratulations again on your beautiful marriage!

Rachel + Logan | Arlington, Wisconsin | Simple + Rustic Spring Backyard Barn Wedding

By

Rachel and Logan’s wedding was the most lovely day for the most deserving of couples.⁠ ⁠⁠Our first meeting with Rachel and Logan had us loving their laidback style and passion for being good humans.⁠ We turned a big, old (like 1830’s old) barn into a magical oasis on a quiet farm dotted with gardens, and it was beautiful.
⁠⁠
This couple was hoping for a simple and elegant day that had all the trimmings, but not a lot of fuss, and we had the BEST time making it happen in just 4 months!⁠⁠ Working with a blank canvas and a vision is our favorite art, and we’re not sure which part we loved more from Rachel and Logan’s wedding: planning it or executing it!⁠ ⁠⁠Enjoy each detail below!

The property belonged to a business client of Logan’s and was the perfect setting for these two to join in union surrounded by their closest loved ones.

We loved the fun and laughter yard games brought to both the couple and their guests!

This 1830’s barn was transformed into an absolute dream covered in twinkle lights for this fun-loving couple and their guests to dance their hearts out for the rest of the night!

Congratulations, Rachel + Logan!

Johanna + Mike: Madison Children’s Museum – Madison, WI

By

Johanna + Mike were one of the sweetest couples who were married and one of the sweetest venues, Madison Children’s Museum of course! We enjoyed everything about these two, from how relaxed they were in planning to how much fun they were excited to have at this playful venue. 

Weddings are known for pomp and circumstance. This couple embraced that their union was a cause for a no-holds-bar celebration! Glamming up classic fun food, the space, and even utilizing the Lego Wall for their guests. 

If I had to choose one phrase that embodies this wedding, it would be:
A family that plays together stays together! 

Congrats Johanna + Mike!
