Katie & Chris have a love story that crosses continents and that fills their hearts near to bursting. And on their wedding day it seemed totally fitting to us that that they would be married in spaces and places that exude an old world, gilded charm that is a little over the top – but perfectly so. That’s because they both have big personalities to match their big hearts and collectively, a big happy family to help them celebrate. And celebrate they did. The day started apart – he at home and she at a hotel – and they met at the soaring golden alter at St. Josaphat’s Basilica. The polish words that letter the dome and the arches echoed on the lips of some of Chris’ family members and Katie’s family simply beamed to see their Katie wed Chris. With a stop at Marquette University where they met and a few moments at the art museum, Chris and Katie kept it all very Milwaukee, seating guests at the Historical Society at tables named for many of their favorite places around town and gifting all a special Anodyne Coffee blend crafted just for them. After a wonderfully giddy party of a dinner they danced the night away, with live music, a shoe change to boots on Katie’s part and a crowd of loving supporters that was happy to dance with them. It was very Milwaukee, very happy, very family, very Chris & Katie.
