Jonathan and Kristin | Lapham Peak Wedding

Over Labor Day weekend, Jonathan and Kristin exchanged their vows in front of their family and friends at Lapham Peak State Park.  The weather was perfect, the setting was beautiful, and the guys wore kilts.  Their celebration completely reflected their personality.

The day started in downtown Milwaukee with a First Look on the lakefront.  Kristin and the girls met up with the guys down by the Calatrava.

If you're interested in Scottish attire, including the super cool knife in the sock, check out Locharron of Scotland.
This is where he found everything he needed to complete the look for himself and all of his guys.
But the Texas cufflinks are Jonathan's own personal touch.

Belle Fiori did an amazing job with the flowers.  Not only did Emily create a great looking bouquet for Kristin, she even personalized Jonathan's boutonniere by tying some fly fishing lures into it.
