Wedding and reception at the Eisner Museum of Advertising and Design, Third Ward, Milwaukee, WI

If you get married at the Eisner Museum of Advertising and Design you have to be a bit adventurous. It’s an extremely interesting venue here in Milwaukee and the deal is that if you book your wedding here you don’t find out until a few months or so before your wedding what kind of display will be going on. And Briena and Jeff’s luck would have it that there was a display on how animation and cartooning has affected advertising. So mixed in with the beauty of the the architecture of the museum was…BIG BOY! Who doesn’t love Big Boy?

I love to see the original things that my clients come up with for their wedding to personalize them. Jeff and Briena have spent lots of time in Door County and loved spending time near the water skipping stones. So for their wedding, they collected stones from the beaches of Door County , and before the wedding they passed out to the stones to all the guests. The guests were asked to hold the stones during the ceremony and to make a wish, and return them so that Jeff and Briena could return the stones to the beach in Door County with the wishes of all their family and friends. What a lovely, simple gesture to commemorate their relationship and the importance of their friends and family who attended their wedding. Martha Stewart, eat your heart out!

Congratulations Briena and Jeff!
