A Winter Wedding at The Society | Milwaukee, WI
Sharon & Jim’s Winter Wedding at The Society, Milwaukee
Some love stories take unexpected paths, only to find their way back at the perfect time. Sharon and Jim first met as teenagers, dated for about eight months, and then life took them in different directions. They each built families, raised their children, and spent decades apart. Then, in 2017—more than 40 years later—their paths crossed again, and that teenage spark reignited.
Their wedding at The Society (Milwaukee’s Historical Society) wasn’t just about saying “I do.” It was about celebrating their journey, the people who have been part of it, and the joy of finding love again—all in a place filled with stories of the past. Given their own rich history together, this venue, steeped in Milwaukee’s history, couldn’t have been a more perfect setting for their celebration.
A Love Story 40 Years in the Making
Imagine reconnecting with your first love after four decades. That’s exactly what happened for Sharon and Jim. Their teenage romance may have been brief, but it clearly never faded. After reuniting in 2017, everything fell into place, and they knew this time, it was forever.
A Celebration Filled with Love, Laughter, and a Whole Lot of Fun
Sharon and Jim weren’t interested in a traditional, formal affair—they wanted a wedding that felt like one big party. Their goal? To create an atmosphere where their closest friends and family could relax, laugh, and enjoy the moment right alongside them.
The Milwaukee Historical Society was the perfect venue for their intimate yet lively celebration. Surrounded by the echoes of the past, it served as a meaningful backdrop for a love story that had truly stood the test of time.
A Wedding That Felt Like Them
From the heartfelt vows to the dance floor moments, every detail of Sharon and Jim’s wedding reflected who they are—fun, genuine, and full of love for the people around them. Their story is proof that love has no timeline, and sometimes, the best things in life come full circle.
Sharon and Jim, your journey together is nothing short of incredible. Cheers to this next chapter and the celebration that was just the beginning!
