Ali + Brandon’s Sugar Island Barn Wedding || Watertown, WI

MEET ALI + BRANDON

Ali and Brandon are a fun-loving couple that is not afraid to be themselves!

Ali and Brandon meet while attending a wedding. In fact, Ali was actually a friend’s date for the night. But that didn’t discourage Brandon who asked Ali for her number. The two chatted for a while before Brandon asked Ali out. To which she actually said no at first! Yet again, Brandon was not discouraged, and continued asking Ali out until she “caved”. The two had their first dinner and movie date, and according to the couple, the rest is history!

THE PROPOSAL

Brandon proposed to Ali at the observation tower of Pike Lake on a chilly, but perfect Friday fall evening. Ali said that Brandon practically sprinted up the trail, leaving her behind. Little did she know what he was planning!

Just as the sun was setting, Brandon got down on one knee and asked Ali to marry him. Ali said yes right away, and describes it as an incredible night!

WEDDING VISION & PLANNING

Ali and Brandon envisioned a romantic and rustic wedding with lots of laughter and love. They choose the colors navy and burgundy for their gorgeous Wisconsin wedding at Sugar Island Barn in Watertown, Wisconsin.

All of the flowers were provided by B’s Bouquets and were exactly what Ali was hoping for. Ali’s wedding gown is a style she didn’t originally picture herself wearing but fell in love with upon trying it on. Since Brandon and Ali aren’t huge fans of cake, they opted for delicious cookies instead!

The couple do have do-it-yourself touches throughout their wedding including the centerpieces they from scratch and most of the decorations.

ADVICE TO OTHER BRIDES

“Believe in your vision and trust your gut feeling about things. Don’t second guess your choices.” – Ali + Brandon
