Megan & Stuart's Wedding at The Ivy House

Megan and Stuart have the sweetest story. They first met when she listed a concert ticket to a favorite artist for sale and after a few inquiries, the ticket went to Stuart. Their relationship evolved from there as it became apparent their shared taste in music was only the tip of the iceberg. Fast forward three years, and the two were living happily together in Milwaukee with their cat, Naomi, when Stu popped the question. 

Naomi played a large role in their day. Megan took pictures with her while she was getting ready. She was also featured on their cocktail napkins and drink stirrers.

The Ivy House is such an incredible venue and we love working there. They have stunning getting ready spaces and there is so much beauty throughout the entire venue. Megan and Stu served a family style meal to their guests, made even more intimate by the romantic candlelight throughout the reception. Ivy House looked truly dreamy with all the beautiful florals and a total of 318 candles! After some touching speeches the couple hit the dance floor and enjoyed the evening with their guests. Stuart surprised the guests by playing the saxophone with the band and it was incredible! 

Cheers to the happy couple and we are so grateful for these kind words from Megan!

My husband and I knew we needed help planning our big day, including both design support and day of coordination. Upon talking with a few local Milwaukee planners, we quickly hired Krista and team from Weddings With A Twist. Not only did we feel Krista understood and could support our needs, we also just got a great feeling from her! We worked with Krista to refine our vision for the big day and select a few vendors for various rentals, and most importantly an amazing florist in the area. It was so amazing having Krista by our side to make some big decisions, and even just run a few ideas by her along the way. With over 10 years of experience in the industry, we felt we were in such great hands. Krista showed us she truly cared about making our day as unique and special as we wanted it to be, and she proved that wholeheartedly when we got into some planning discussions leading up to the big day. She asked all the right questions and made the most AMAZING timeline I’ve ever seen in my life. It was interactive too so we could engage with Krista “offline,” so to speak, in between meetings as we continued to tinker with our overall timing and flow for the big day. We appreciated Krista’s support on everything end-to-end and frankly wouldn’t have been able to pull off a 200+ person wedding without her! Thanks to Krista’s expertise, we were also provided access to some amazing vendor recommendations, dos and don’ts for planning, a very robust checklist, and so much more to help keep us on track. All to say, if you are in need of an amazing support team to plan your wedding - CHOOSE WEDDINGS WITH A TWIST! You won’t regret it.
