The Sugar Maple is a one-of-a-kind venue that gave us the most memorable wedding experience imaginable. Adrienne created a cozy, intimate space in the backroom that was simply breathtaking. We said our vows there, surrounded by friends and family with beers in hand. The reception, held in the bar area, was lined with her incredible artwork—one of which now hangs proudly in our home. The beer experience at the Sugar Maple was unmatched. The care and creativity infused into every detail, from Adrienne’s striking poppy artwork to the unique beer pairings, made the venue truly magical. As the night went on, the beer kept flowing, laughter filled the air, and the dance floor came alive.

Antigua Catering & Events 

5.0

  • Caterer
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Franklin, WI

Life gets celebrated around food! Together, we can create a menu and setting that will reflect the love for you and your loved one. ​ At Antigua, we love what we do! And what better place to show our love for food and service than at your wedding. Let our award-winning team help you take care of the reception details so that you can enjoy your family and friends.

I can confidently say Antigua made our wedding day absolutely perfect. My wife and I knew we wanted food that was not only delicious but also unique and memorable. From the moment we sat down for our tasting, we knew Antigua was the right choice. First off, the food was next level. Seriously, people are still texting us about the empanadas and the cotija cheese mashed potatoes. It was this incredible mix of authentic Latin flavors with a sophisticated, modern twist. They worked with us to create a menu that matched our vibe perfectly. I mean, we’re talking about food that had my dad going back for seconds (and thirds) — and he’s usually super picky. But what really blew us away was how much the Antigua team cared. They weren’t just there to cater; they went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. The staff was so professional, friendly, and on top of it. It’s like they genuinely wanted us to have the best day ever, and they delivered. The setup was gorgeous. Their team transformed the venue into this warm, vibrant space that felt so us. They even helped us incorporate some personal touches — like a late-night churro station (game changer). If you’re looking for a catering team that feels more like family, Antigua is IT. They made our wedding feel like the best party Milwaukee has ever seen, and we couldn’t be happier. If I could give them 10 stars, I would. Antigua Catering, you guys crushed it. Thank you for everything! Ethan R. P.S The Chimi

McKenna Marie Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Fine art style
  • Starts at $2,900
  • Serves Franklin, WI

I'm a photographer based in Milwaukee, WI. I WILL travel the world to capture your special moments. I've dedicated myself to specializing in natural light, lifestyle wedding and portrait photography, and capturing my clients' true personalities in my images.

McKenna was present (surprise to me!) at the proposal and caught our pictures perfectly (especially as I felt I was not prepared to be camera ready that day). She captured the event beautifully but also kept her space at such an intimate moment and then delivered the images quickly with edits. Of course we used McKenna for our engagement pictures as well (and she'll be there for the wedding). Our engagement shoot was a blast! We felt comfortable taking professional pictures in a public setting and McKenna knew exactly what she was doing from location to poses to making sure she captured a moment and a smile, and not feeling too staged. Again, with a quick turnaround on lovely, fun edited images. Honestly, before taking/seeing our pictures I had no idea what "style" of pictures meant but I quickly learned I love McKenna's use of light, color and nature. The pictures are truly timeless for years to come. McKenna is professional with communication, scheduling, making you feel comfortable on site and then returning the finished product in a timely manner.

Azure came to us when we needed her the most! Our wedding venue changed last minute and we were without a photographer. Little did we know that it was a blessing in disguise in so many ways! Azure captured our day perfectly! We were so grateful for her own beautiful faith background because she knew exactly what to highlight during our Nuptial Mass. Our photographs are absolute treasures, and she was professional, kind, creative, and so easy to work with. She even got us previews of our photos within a few hours of our wedding!!

Hey Beauts. My name is Gemma-Louise. I have been a bridal specialist for 11 years and am still as in love with it as I was on day 1. I don't have one particular vibe. I like all the vibes! I love working with brides who are open minded. Putting my own little twist into an upstyle is my fav thing to do. Making your hair not look exactly like the photo (cause that's already been done) is my jam. But I can absolutely recreate a look if that's what you want. I do also have a bridal team if i am unavailable. Speak soon Beauts.

I hired Gemma for my 11/11 wedding and I received so many compliments on my hair all night! My glam waves were so beautiful and lasted all night. My bridesmaids and mom looked great as well. I would highly recommend Gemma to any bride. She will make sure to you look perfect!

Blush By Brittany Airbrush Makeup Artist

  • Beauty professional
  • Starts at $340
  • Serves Franklin, WI

I LOVE what I do! I received my Aesthetics degree from Vici Park, an Aveda Institute in 2006 in Milwaukee, WI. Makeup artistry has been a career that I’ve always wanted to advance in. I started out a salon in 2006 and knew after 11 months that I was meant to be a business owner. I saw a need from brides to have makeup services on location in their own home or hotel and thus Blush by Brittany was created. I am going to make you look like You!

Brittany was great! She did my whole wedding party and moms makeup (9 total) in a timely manner and even finished ahead of schedule. She is great at bringing out your natural features without overdoing it, everyone looked gorgeous! She has a comfortable presence to her as well which is calming on your wedding day!

Holy cow, Lyssa rocks, hire her now before she books up! I'll be honest, I was skeptical about needing a planner for our wedding ("ours isn't a crazy extraganza, how much do they do?"), but now I can't imagine how anyone does it without one. Now for the details you probably care about: - Lyssa is responsive & helpful - we had numerous big wrenches thrown at us during wedding planning (venue got sold, etc.) and Lyssa was ready for our panicked call, talked us through options and making us confident things would be O.K. - Lyssa is fun - I know that's not top of the list, but you spend a lot of time interacting with your planner, so it helps if you enjoy it. - We hired her to be planner & day of coordinator. We also went with her extra packages where she handles the majority of floral & decor. Having the same person do the day-of was so helpful, because she already knew everything that was going on & had helped us create timelines that were realistic. - Lyssa (especially if helping with decor) helps you fit your vision into your budget. She's a regular at all the craft stores & FB marketplace around Milwaukee and knows all their deals - if we had bought the exact same stuff ourselves without Lyssa handling it, I bet we would have paid 3x as much for the decor we used. We already recommended Lyssa to a couple friends, so we'd recommend her to you as well. P.S: her husband is a great D.J., so you potentially just checked off finding 2 vendors at once. :D

  • Serves Franklin, WI

My photography business was born in sunny San Diego, but a new adventure has led me to the midwest! I currently live in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with my wife, our two cats, Nesta and Zinnia, and our dog, Clementine. I studied Neurobiology, Physiology and Behavior at UC Davis and went on to my Masters at UCSD in Healthcare Administration. Through all of this professional development, photography has been my constant and my creative outlet. I have been capturing moments for the past six years. To me, photography is a practice and a ritual. I am inspired by emotion, movement and adventure. I can't wait to meet you and capture your adventures.

Not sure if you'd call our wedding "weird" or "unconventional" but we certainly had our fair share of odd moments. We were originally worried about hiring any photographer just because we didn't know how well we'd be able to communicate every little oddity our community would throw at us on our day especially since there were bound to be surprises. Then comes Puneet. The smile on his face always reminding us that this was our day, his kind words telling us we were doing great, he rolled with everything we threw at him and got so many amazing pictures. Pretty sure we even got him on the dance floor once. As my mom-in-law said afterwards "It's so great that you found a photographer who just instantly felt like part of the family. Thank you Puneet. It would not have been the same without you.

So, this is kind of in my genes. ​I've been baking professionally for over 7 years, and was hired to make my first wedding cake when I was just 16! I love being able to give clients something memorable for their weddings, events, or as gifts for their loved ones. Consistency and flexibility are the two main ingredients in making my clients come back for seconds!

Her work is beautiful, and it not only looks good, but it always tastes amazing. All of our guests still talk about our cake years later. She is so creative and patient. She listened to my 45,000 ideas about cakes and helped me narrow it down until we settled something that I absolutely loved. We received multiple commented from our other vendors (who she hadn't worked with before) on how professional and great she was to work with, and how her cake was one of the best they had ever had!

I have a passion for travel and I love meeting new people and hearing their crazy (or not so crazy) stories. I love trying new things and walking around a new city until my feet bleed (that's literally happened...still love you tho, NYC). I'm a major extrovert, but I have a great appreciation for the little things in life. You'll likely find me sipping some strong coffee at a local café or snuggled up on the couch with some wine, pizza, and my husband on a rainy day. With a camera in hand, I am probably the most annoying person to travel with, stopping every ten feet to take a picture. Sorry not sorry.

Loved working with Allie! Not to mention the photos were exactly what we wanted. She was fun, on time, prepared, found a great 2nd shooter, and worked quickly! But we never felt rushed and got all the shots we wanted. She even bustled my dress :) haha. We did a mini session beforehand and were so pleased and it made us even more hyped for Wedding Day!

Hey! I'm Katrice. Photography has been my 'thing' for as long as I can remember. My father was a photographer. One of my earliest memories is a point and click film camera being placed in my hand. As I grew up photography began to mean so much more to me. It helps us remember. these little bits of time are captured forever. Seeing the joy on my friend's faces when I'd hand them prints after recent adventures was so meaningful to me. After college and the birth of my daughter I decided to dive in full time, and here we are. 7 years later & still learning and growing. I love it all.

Katrice was simply amazing. She was flexible and communicative. Her online portal is super easy to use. But most importantly, she captured the most incredible pictures of our wedding. She commanded the attention needed to wrangle a variety of people for formal photos, including an entire group shot, and got truly excellent candid photos. We could not be happier!

I don’t even know where to start with Liz. I was in a bad situation with a photographer & Liz stepped in LITERALLY 5 days before my wedding and offered her services. With little prep time she was able to go above & beyond what I could have ever wanted in a photographer. It rained the entire day of my wedding & she remained so positive & never once made us feel overwhelmed or rushed. Her work is phenomenal, I have never felt more beautiful in photos than I do in the ones Liz took of me in my wedding dress. I would highly recommend her for any wedding!

Janelle and the team at Story Hill Firehouse was a pleasure to work with throughout our wedding planning process. Their communication was prompt, open, and receptive, which made us feel at ease and well-cared for. The venue itself had a cozy, cohesive feel. It was perfect for our wedding of 85 people. The historical charm of the firehouse as well as all the architectural touches added to the beauty of the day. The staff was incredibly organized and caring making our day seamless and stress free. We highly recommend Story Hill Firehouse to any couple looking for a unique and memorable wedding experience.

At Tapas Ricas, we specialize in crafting beautiful, flavorful charcuterie experiences inspired by my Puerto Rican roots and Wisconsin influence. Every board, grazing table, and mobile charcuterie bar is thoughtfully designed to bring people together. Tapas Ricas is more than just meat and cheese - it’s intention. It’s creativity. It’s culture. It’s a way to celebrate heritage, create memories, and share joy on life’s most special occasions. Helping couples add a unique and meaningful touch to their wedding day through my craft brings me so much happiness and fulfillment.

Always a big hit at our parties! I will always recommend Tapas Ricas for any occasion. Nasha is the best at what she does!!

The Smoke Shack

We’re obsessed with the craft of smoked meat. Our certified humanely-raised meats are dry rubbed, slow smoked, and sauced by you. In some cases, we began smoking your meat yesterday to ensure you get the perfect quality barbecue. We smoke our meats in small batches, all-day, every-day. In some cases, we sell out when items are in high demand, but sit back, savor a bourbon or two, and try something new. We’re certain that you’ll enjoy our variety!

Nickie and her team are excellent to work with. We have done several weddings together in various venues around the Greater Milwaukee Area. They are punctual, helpful, friendly and will go above and beyond to ensure your day is extra special. They lend a helping had to other vendors when in a pinch to ensure your day is smooth and behind the scenes is running smoothly. Their food is exceptional, and service is top notch.
