A Midwife Officiant in the State's Capitol

Photos by: Chelsea Matson

*A midwife who played a critical role at the bride’s birth now serving as co-officiant with her partner.

*A poem read through the generations (the bride’s grandpa read it at her mom’s wedding in the 90s, and so her mom read it to her and her now-husband at their wedding).

*A final hug before officially becoming family.

*One last photo of the epic venue and couple. They built their home in Madison and fell in love with the state’s capitol, and they concluded their ceremony wearing a blessing shawl that symbolized their union.

Four Cultures, Fourteen Readings, One Incredible Wedding

We wanted to represent all 4 of our cultures: Lithuanian, French, Filipino, and African American. We did this through incorporating readings and readers in our ceremony from all of those cultures. We had 14 different people read quick excerpts in multiple languages. They just stood up where they were sitting and read, it felt very organic.
