Marlea & Bobby’s O’Donnell Park wedding and Coast Milwaukee reception was elegant and perfect. I’ve known Marlea for several years, as she used to host our ladies’ Bible study at her condo. Interestingly enough, this same condo is where she met Bobby, who was endearingly referred to as, “Condo Cop.” Because of the natural movement of life, we stopped having our ladies’ time, but Marlea & Bobby were just getting started on their journey. It’s lovely to look back on it all and to have fun memories of when it all began.

On the day of their wedding, Marlea & Bobby were so relaxed. John spent time with Bobby and his entire family as they prepared for the wedding day at Bobby’s parents’ house. The strong ties of a good family were very evident. Marlea and her bridesmaids began their morning at DiCarlo Salon in Milwaukee and then finished getting ready at Coast. Marlea had a smile on her face the whole morning. It’s pretty amazing to be able to spend the day with two people who are just so happy to be getting married. Even amid the flurry of keeping to a schedule, these two kept calm excitement and pure joy with them all day long.

The weather was perfect. The Milwaukee skyline to one side, and Lake Michigan to the other. Nestled within everything that makes Milwaukee beautiful, these two made their promises and vows while family and friends smiled and celebrated with them. The food was delicious, the dance floor was hopping, and the glowing city lights of Milwaukee sang along with the celebration.

A special Thank You to the vendors that made Marlea & Bobby’s day so beautiful!
