Ward 3 was absolutely amazing; we were lucky enough to work with Elena as our lead photographer and Irv as our lead videographer and from the start everyone was so communicative and put us at ease even early on in the planning process. They all just kept asking day of, how they could help us make the day go smooth and it really truly meant more than I could ever explain because it showed they weren't just there for photos and a paycheck, but they were there for US as a couple. Super quick turnaround time with sneak peek photos and I'm already blown away by the talent Ward 3 has in their photographers. I cannot wait to see everything else and our video :) Would recommend them too absolutely everyone!

Taber and Zack were absolutely amazing to work with for our wedding. Taber has such an eye for detail—every shot felt so natural and perfectly captured who we are as a couple. Zack was just as incredible, somehow always in the right spot to catch the action without ever being in the way. Together, they made sure we’ll never forget our big day.

Enclave Light and Sound is Wisconsin's highest-rated wedding DJ. Our team of 20 DJs have as much fun as you and your guests getting everyone out to the dancefloor for what is guaranteed to be, the best night of your life!

Awarded Best of Zola
I seriously cannot say enough good things about Enclave Light & Sound Ward 3 Media. From the very first call, everyone just felt real, fun, organized, and totally on our side. Our DJ was amazing he read the room so well and somehow kept both my college friends AND my grandma on the dance floor all night. Not once did we feel like the music was cheesy or forced. It honestly felt like hanging out with a really talented friend who just gets what you like. The photobooth and lighting made everything look next-level without feeling over the top. Ward 3 Media was just as incredible. The photographers/videographers were super chill. they blended in, gave direction when we needed it, and captured moments I didn’t even realize were happening. I’m obsessed with how natural everything looks in the photos and our video literally made me cry (in the best way). My favorite little moment: during portraits, my veil flew off (OF COURSE) and instead of panicking, our photographer laughed, helped fix it, and somehow turned it into this super cute, candid series of photos that ended up being some of my favorites. Total lifesaver. Overall, the whole team felt kind, professional, and genuinely excited for us — not just another wedding on their calendar. If you want vendors who bring great energy AND deliver insanely good results, I’d pick them again 1000x.

Working with Amy through Veronica Rose Weddings was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We chose the month-out package, and from the moment Amy stepped in, she completely took the stress off my shoulders. She immediately connected with all of our vendors, got everyone on the same timeline, and made sure the entire day flowed seamlessly. I can’t even begin to describe how many behind-the-scenes tasks she handled that I would have never thought of, things that made such a big difference and allowed me to be fully present and enjoy the day. Amy was attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely cared about making sure everything went smoothly. On the wedding day, she checked in constantly to make sure we had everything we needed, and she always seemed one step ahead of us. I had a LOT of decor and small details that mattered so much to me, and she placed everything perfectly and it looked beautiful, exactly how I envisioned it. Seeing it all come together brought me so much joy, and I have Amy to thank for that. What stood out most was Amy’s calm and caring presence. She talked to me not just as a planner, but like a friend who truly wanted the day to be perfect for us. Knowing she was there, managing the logistics, advocating for us, and making sure no detail was missed gave me the peace of mind I didn’t think was possible on such a big day. If you are on the fence about getting a planner, especially a month-of coordinator, don’t hesitate. Veronica Rose is incredible. Amy exceeded every expectation, and I am so grateful she was by our side through such an important time. Our day was everything we dreamed of, and Amy played a huge role in making that happen.

I have a passion for organization, thoughtful planning, and meaningful details. I believe the most memorable weddings are created through connection, which is why I take the time to truly get to know my couples and their families. My goal is to create a seamless, stress-free wedding day that feels personal, intentional, and unforgettable—allowing you to be fully present and enjoy every moment.

Awarded Best of Zola
Look no further!!!!! I cannot express enough how grateful we are to have had Sara as our month-of coordinator. From the very beginning, she was a source of calmness in what could have been a very stressful time. Her organizational skills were top-notch, and I could always rely on her to stay on top of every detail. She was genuinely kind, approachable, and made the planning experience so fun. Each booked vendor that came from Sara's recommendation was 10/10. She knows the local wedding industry well, and she respects her clients' budgets without losing quality. Sara’s kindness and sense of humor was a breath of fresh air, and I truly looked forward to every conversation and meeting with her. She had a way of making even the most mundane tasks feel fun, and I will really miss laughing with her during the planning process. One of the stand-out things I appreciated most about Sara was how she always had my back. She made sure that our wedding day was exactly how my husband and I envisioned it, no outside opinions or pressures influencing our decisions or timeline. Sara was incredibly respectful and professional with all guests and vendors, yet she kept it real in a way that made me feel totally comfortable to share any worries or thoughts I needed to talk through at any time. She made herself available for communication whenever I needed it, and talking to her truly felt like talking to a close friend—I always felt heard, supported, and like she genuinely cared about making our vision come to life. I knew she would step in and defend our vision no matter what. On the day of the wedding, Sara was beyond prepared. She anticipated every need before I even thought of it, and it was clear that she was completely dedicated to making sure everything ran smoothly. I will always look back on the day with a laugh as I picture Sara saving my dress with her Tide-to-Go pen, among other last-minute necessities she had packed. Sara’s attention to detail was incredible. She went above and beyond by transporting decor to and from various locations and found ways to make everything more convenient for us, so we didn’t have to lift a finger or stress about anything. Everything stayed so organized. Thanks to Sara, we were able to enjoy every moment of our wedding day without a single worry. Any potential anxiety I had that month was immediately eased, because I knew Sara had it all under control. She took care of every possible roadblock with such grace and efficiency that I didn’t even know there was a potential issue unless she absolutely needed to inform me. She handled everything exactly how I would have wanted, without ever involving me unnecessarily. What I will always remember about Sara is not just her professionalism and reliability, but the kindness, humor, and calming presence she brought to everything she did. She is genuinely one of the nicest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. We are so grateful for her.

Stephanie Koppa - Photographer

Milwaukee, WI
  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $3,600

Hey! Allow me to introduce myself - I'm Stephanie. Born & raised in Wisco but I have a wandering soul. I love photographing love. Silly love, sweet love, crazy love, & any kind in between. Adventurous couples are my jam - those that aren't afraid to jump in a lake fully clothed or hang out with alpacas in the freezing cold for their shoot. I live for shoots where we are all barefoot, hanging by the lake, enjoying the sunset while I capture the moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
We could not be more thrilled with the experience we had with Stephanie as our photographer for both our engagement and wedding photos! From the very first inquiry to receiving our beautifully edited photos, she was consistently responsive, thorough, and communicative. We always knew what to expect and when, which made everything feel seamless and stress-free. One thing that really stood out to us was how Stephanie helped us choose photo locations when we weren’t quite sure where to go. She offered thoughtful suggestions and even gave her honest opinions about lighting and layout when needed, which we truly appreciated. On the big day, Stephanie made us feel completely at ease. Neither of us had any experience with professional photography prior to working with Stephanie, so we were initially worried about feeling awkward in front of the camera, but she made the entire process so comfortable. She was so sweet and calming, which was really appreciated on a day that has a lot of moving parts. She was even thoughtful enough to adjust our hair or tweak our poses when needed to make sure every photo was just right. Stephanie has the perfect balance of being easygoing yet incredibly organized. She made sure that all of the photos we wanted were taken, while also capturing so many beautiful candid moments. Her artistic eye when capturing details is truly something special, and she has such a knack for getting those perfectly posed portraits as well. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to document such an important day, and we would highly recommend her to any bride looking for someone who is professional, kind, and genuinely passionate about what she does. Thank you so much, Stephanie, for making our wedding day so memorable with your stunning work!

Ari was great to work with! He was communicative, professional and always thinking of the details. There were options to fit our budget as well. Mark was our photographer and WOW HOLY COW! He was fun to work with and had this innate ability to bring out the best in everyone when capturing all the special moments. Then we received our digital photos, and they were absolutely spectacular! We were so impressed. Mark caught all moments with our family, friends and us, the bride and groom, that were loving, happy, beautiful, comedic, unexpected, reflective... We are in awe with all the shots and the quality. They are amazing. Ari also worked with us to do some minor editing on a few photos and organize them into a drop site. Definitely recommend Ari and Mark 100%!

Hey, I’m Alex—founder of Redwood Weddings and your behind-the-scenes bestie for all things planning. I didn’t grow up dreaming about weddings, but I did grow up organizing, (lovingly) bossing people around, and making sure everyone was taken care of. Turns out, those were all the signs. What started as a summer job at a Napa winery turned into a full-heart business here in Wisconsin. Now, I lead a team of detail-loving, down-to-earth planners who are obsessed with creating weddings that feel like magic—not cookie-cutter, just wildly you.

Awarded Best of Zola
There are NO WORDS to describe how amazing Redwood Weddings was to work with leading up to our wedding. Alex was incredibly helpful during the planning process in answering my random questions and giving advice. Our lead coordinator, Katie, who I called my "emotional support animal" lead us through the final 3 months of planning with ease, to ensure that our day was executed flawlessly with our experience as well as the guest logistics/experience in mind. On the wedding day, she was worth her weight in gold- she made my vision come to life, ensured that I was stress-free all day, and was such a kind and calming presence that even my family members took note on how amazing she was! I would recommend Redwood Weddings to everyone and my dream wedding would have never been possible without them throughout the whole process. I cannot say enough good things about these amazing ladies. Book them, you won't regret it!!!

From your ceremony and reception to an engagement party or rehearsal dinner, let’s save you the stress & leave all the coordination to me!

Monique is exactly who you hope to find when you start looking for a wedding planner! We were planning a Milwakuee wedding at Turner Hall while living in Chicago and felt lost. From the moment she joined us, the stress lifted. She understood our vision, offered honest guidance and made every decision easier and clearer. What makes her special is the way she cares. She is calm when things get chaotic, confident when you feel unsure and completely invested in making your day unforgettable. Because of her, we were able to enjoy every moment without worrying about a thing. Our guests adored her and still talk about how wonderful she was. We joked about our Bengal babies not being able to make it to the wedding, and Monique showed up at our reception with giant cat cutouts she made herself. It meant the world to us and showed just how thoughtful and genuinely caring she is! Her content creator package is totally worth it. It let us see parts of the day we missed in the moment and gave us memories we did not even realize were being made. Monique made our wedding feel effortless, personal and unforgettable in every way!

She brought the greatest second photographer, Morgan, & they were both a wonderful addition to our day. Their personalities make you feel like they’re fun, sweet guests and not just another vendor.

Lindsay Stayton Photography LLC 

5.0

Milwaukee, WI
  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,900

Lindsay Stayton began her career in the photography industry in 2008. Her first gig was photographing The Worlds Largest Music Festival, Summerfest. In 2010, Lindsay was asked to photographed her first wedding after a couple stated "If you can photograph Flava Flave, then you can most definitely photograph our wedding!" Most couples have requested Lindsay to continue capturing life’s candid moments for their growing families, which led to her tag line: “Your Family Historian”. Lindsay has a distinct and unique style which captures real human emotion and candid moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
It’s honestly hard to capture in words just how incredible Lindsay is—not only as a photographer, but as a person. From the moment we first connected with her, it was clear she didn’t just see her role as “taking pictures.” She understood what our day was truly about: love, connection, and community. That perspective came through in every single interaction and every single image. When we were prioritizing our wedding budget, we knew photography would be at the very top. We decided to skip a videographer and planner and crossed our fingers that the photos would tell our story in the way we dreamed. Choosing Lindsay was without a doubt the best decision we could have made. Her talent, dedication, and passion shine through in a way that makes it clear she should never be considered “just another vendor.” She is a true artist, and worth every single penny. One of the biggest reasons we chose Lindsay was the diversity of couples she showcased in her portfolio. It meant so much to see ourselves reflected in her work, and it reassured us that she could capture the beauty, uniqueness, and authenticity of every couple’s love story. From start to finish, Lindsay gave us everything we could have asked for and then more. She guided us through engagement photos that were stunning and full of personality, and then on our wedding day, she showed up prepared, energized, and completely present. She not only took photos—she kept the day flowing. She helped us plan the timing of the schedule, moved groups seamlessly for portraits, and brought a sense of calm and confidence that allowed us to simply enjoy being in the moment. She even connected us with other vendors, showing how much she genuinely cares about her couples’ experiences beyond just the photos. And the photos themselves? Breathtaking. They are stunning, timeless, endearing, and true to the moment. She captured the big, emotional highlights of the day while also finding those in-between moments we didn’t even realize were happening—moments that make the memories so much richer. Our family and friends have been floored, with so many saying things like, “I never thought I could look that good in a picture” or “I can’t believe she managed to capture me actually smiling!” Lindsay has a gift for seeing people as they are and reflecting back their truest, most joyful selves. Looking through our gallery felt like reliving the day in the most beautiful way possible. These are the images we will share with family for years to come. Lindsay didn’t just document our wedding—she became part of the story, and the photos she gave us are part of our family history now. That’s why we know we’ll be returning to her for all of our future photography needs. She isn’t just a photographer; she’s a family historian, and we couldn’t be more grateful that she was the one to capture this chapter of our lives.

Hi! I'm Kayla - a traveling Milwaukee wedding photographer - and I'm going to make you cry. Wait, what? Don't worry, not in a bad way. Most of my couples say they cry when receiving their wedding photos from me for the first time. Five, ten, fifty years down the road when you open your wedding album, bet I'll get you again. You'll still be surrounded by your loved ones - remembering the happy tears and laughing until your belly hurts - just as you did on your wedding day.

We are so beyond thankful that we went with Kayla to photograph our wedding. Throughout our engagement shoot and the wedding day- watching her work is truly incredible. She is a master and finding little moments that bring absolute magic to her photos. Never did we feel like we were doing cheesy poses on our wedding day, and the photos reflect that. We have been looking through our sneak peek pictures obsessively because they instantly bring us back to our wedding day. Throughout which, Kayla was the calm amid the chaos. She was so focused on helping us stay on time and navigating us from one task to the next. It was such a comfort knowing that she had our backs and was ensuring that we got all of the big (and small) moments we had discussed leading up to the day. We can’t wait to see the rest of our photos. We know that choosing her as our photographer was one of absolute best decisions for our entire process - from engagement to wedding day. If her pictures haven’t already convinced you- let this be your sign! You want this one.

From our first call with One Shot Scott Photography, we knew we were in good hands. She was incredibly responsive, helpful, and personable throughout the entire wedding planning process. On the day of our wedding, her attention to detail and ability to seamlessly capture all the special moments was truly impressive. The final photos were absolutely beautiful, plentiful, and perfect - we couldn't have asked for a better outcome. One example that stands out was when I asked her what time it was, and she simply told me not to worry about it, which I loved because it allowed me to be fully present without having to constantly check the clock.

Getting married in WI while living and planning in CA could have been an interesting and difficult process but Amany made everything so easy from start to finish - organized, quick to respond & just the sweetest person to work with. She made the whole process totally stress-free. And Mary… I can’t say enough good things! She is SO talented and truly an artist. We first met on a virtual trial where I felt understood, comfortable and confident in the services to come. She nailed my vision perfectly — soft, glowy, and natural but still totally glam. My makeup lasted all day and night (highly recommend 10 hour day to switch things up from ceremony to reception) and I honestly felt like the most beautiful version of myself. My mom and friends all looked stunning too — everyone was obsessed! The day felt calm, fun, and full of good vibes thanks to Mary. This was not Mary's first rodeo and she was such a helpful joy to have around and someone I could trust throughout the entire day. I can't recommend Wide Eyed Bride more, absolute dream team and best decision I made for my wedding day!

The Best Place at Pabst was so easy to work with, affordable, flexible drink packages, lots of fun amenities, natural atmosphere and decor means you don’t need to do much decorating of your own, I could go on and on. Our guests could not stop raving about how unique, intimate and lovely the space was. We used the Blue Ribbon Hall which included a balcony space which we used to give our guests the opportunity to play classic WI card games; Euchre, Sheepshead, cribbage etc… It was a great, separate space to hang out but still be a part of the celebration and watch the dancing. The staff even accommodated our last minute request to play the Bucks playoff game on the projector during dinner! Our wedding included lots of guests from out of town and out of state and we really wanted a venue that embodied Milwaukee culture. This. Was. IT.

Dominika Photographer 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $4,700
  • Serves Milwaukee, WI

Hi, I'm Dominika. I'm happily married and a mama to two awesome daughters. I'm also a yogi and, admittedly, a wannabe Spaniard who would move back to Spain in a heartbeat to indulge in the simple pleasures of delicious tapas, red wine, cheese, and late dinners. Traveling and spending time with my little family brings my heart joy. Having lived and worked in Poland, Germany, Switzerland, Japan, Argentina, and Spain, has deeply inspired my will to explore more of the world and my style behind the lens to capture the essence of moments as they happen naturally and spontaneously.

If you don’t think you are photogenic, you will be after working with Dominika. Her personality is amazing, and she makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She knew how to capture the true love we have for each other. Right from the beginning we knew we selected the right photographer after our first meeting. We felt like we knew her for our entire life and felt confident she would capture all of our memories. The photos were stunning and were the best pictures we have ever had taken of the both of us. We also want to acknowledge Dominika’s second photographer for the day. Lottie was professional, friendly and worked very well with Dominika to meet both her and our vision of how our wedding photos would look. They were an amazing team and can say with confidence Dominika knows what she is doing. We look forward to working with her more beyond the wedding and would recommend that you do the same.

We had our wedding at the Barley Room in October and it was wonderful! Beautiful venue and the price point especially for the area is great. The bridal suite was perfect to get ready in. We loved being able to choose all of our vendors and make the space our own. Clai and Ann are very easy to work with. We are so happy we chose to have our wedding here :)

I cannot recommend Lyssa and Modern Sage enough. Having a day-of coordinator was one of the best planning decisions I made. Lyssa made the day run smoothly with no stress for me or my family. Our cake was delivered late and I didn’t even know or have to worry about it, she took care of it all. Not only that, the extra touches she made with our decor and setup, made our space look totally dreamy. Lyssa went way above and beyond our expectations and choosing her was one of the best things we did for our wedding!0
