Maria & Dave | Golden Mast Inn Wedding Photography in Wisconsin’s Lake Country

Maria & Dave have a magnetism about them that draws everybody in – into conversation, into laughter, into their lives, into something special. Their wedding day was a testament to that magnetism – and to how full their lives are now and how impossibly full they will grow to be. On a sunny day that was the stark opposite of their engagement session day (as was intended) they met on a dock, in the wind and said I love you. I can’t wait to marry you. That wind played with Maria’s veil and their favorite people laughed and cheered them on (as did many boaters motoring by during the lake side ceremony) and they just sort of melted into a perfect day to say I Do. I adore their easy style that is at once down home and rustic, but a bit refined and frilly. Maria DIY’d many things and basically thought of everything to keep guests happy. I’ve never seen so many children at a wedding – 30 or more – who played with their kid entertainment treat bags and begged for pictures with Maria & Dave. I caught a glimpse of two cousins playing at wedding (the “groom” opted to wear a Spider Man mask) after dinner and more smiles than I could count in every direction I looked. When it was time to dance Maria and Dave shared a sensual, sweet, totally romantic moment where I think everyone in attendance saw what real love looks like when it decides to dance. I have a feeling Maria & Dave dance together a lot, just the two of them, alone in a room full of people.
