Jon & Jenny

A fall wedding in Middleton, WI.

About the Wedding

There’s something undeniably magical about a lakeside wedding, and Jon and Jenny’s celebration at Bishops Bay Country Club in Middleton, WI, had that magic in spades. From the stunning setting with sailboats gliding behind them as they said their vows to the perfectly curated style of the wedding party, every detail was a reflection of the couple’s love and personal flair.

A Lakeside Wedding Ceremony

Picture this: a serene body of water, the gentle ripple of sailboats catching the breeze, and the soft whispers of nature all around. And standing right in front of it all were Jon and Jenny, ready to exchange vows in a setting so romantic it could’ve been pulled from the pages of a fairy tale.

Classic Meets Trendy Wedding Suits

One thing that stood out about Jon and Jenny’s wedding was the perfect balance between classic style and modern flair, especially when it came to their attire.

The groom stood out in a custom-made green tuxedo from SuitShop, paired with loafers that gave the ensemble a relaxed yet stylish vibe. The deep green hue was perfect against the lakeside backdrop, while the modern twist of loafers instead of traditional dress shoes kept things fresh and comfortable. Jon’s wedding prep started with a virtual consultation with a SuitShop stylist to ensure the fit was just right, and we’re sure glad he did! The result? A groom who looked effortlessly sharp and felt like his best self.

In contrast, Jon’s groomsmen wore traditional black tuxedos, which anchored the overall aesthetic with classic elegance. The sharp black tuxes complemented the more unique green tuxedo choice, adding a timeless element to the wedding party’s coordinated look.

The bridesmaids were dressed in trendy sage green dresses, a color that perfectly matched the natural surroundings. Their bouquets, bursting with white, peach, burgundy, and orange florals, added just the right amount of color to the wedding party’s elegant palette, creating a beautiful contrast against the green landscape.

Cocktail Hour Lawn Games

After the emotional and beautiful ceremony, the guests transitioned to a relaxed cocktail hour, where they could kick back and enjoy the atmosphere. For those looking for a little friendly competition, lawn games were set up on the grounds, giving guests the chance to laugh, chat, and enjoy the perfect summer day. It was a casual yet thoughtful touch that allowed everyone to unwind and mingle before the festivities really got started.

The Reception: Dancing & Desserts

After cocktail hour, guests moved to the reception, which was held in a spacious outdoor tent—a perfect choice for an evening under the stars.

The reception was an unforgettable mix of dancing, toasts, and laughter, but there was also a sweet surprise in store for everyone: a dessert bar! It was brimming with an assortment of sweet treats that allowed everyone to indulge in their favorite little bite of joy. It was a sweet ending to an even sweeter evening.

Polaroid Guest Book

One of the most unique aspects of Jon and Jenny’s wedding was their guest book—a simple but thoughtful idea that allowed their friends and family to contribute in a personal way. Instead of the typical guest book, they set up a Polaroid camera station, where guests could snap photos of themselves and write a special note or well wish for the couple. These photos and messages were then added to a book, creating a keepsake full of memories, love, and the smiling faces of all those who shared in their joy.

From their serene lakeside ceremony, with the wind adding its own flair, to the lively lawn games and the thoughtful Polaroid guest book, every detail was a celebration of love. With a wedding that was stylish, fun, and heartfelt, Jon and Jenny created memories that will last a lifetime.

Y'all KNOCKED the suits out of the park. Jon's green suit especially was truly one-of-a-kind, chic, and oh so Jon!
