A Citrus-Toned Summer Wedding at Southminster Presbyterian Church & The Legend at Merrill Hills
Hayley & Steve | June 28, 2025 | Waukesha, Wisconsin
Hayley and Steve got married on a bright June afternoon— the ceremony at Southminster Presbyterian Church and the celebration at The Legend at Merrill Hills.
the bride and her bridemaids got ready at The Ingleside Hotel. We took a few quick photos before heading off to the church.
The whole day felt like summer in the best possible way. The cheery citrus-themed palate was to die for!
The Ceremony
The ceremony at Southminster Presbyterian Church was warm, personal, and beautifully simple—just vows, a unity candle, and the people who love them most filling the pews.
Hayley got ready with her bridesmaids in a room full of grapefruit and mango tones. The citrus palette looked so fresh and happy against the summer light, and it carried through the entire day.
A quick first look with her dad!
Color in Motion
Grapefruit, mango, and yellow against the deep greens of early summer—it was such a gorgeous combination and looked stunning in every photo. The wedding party absolutely rocked it.
An Evening at Merrill Hills
Big family, multiple generations, and a dance floor that filled up fast. The citrus colors carried right into the reception space and the room just felt alive all night. Dinner, toasts, dancing—so much fun.
A Day That Felt Like Summer

Hayley and Steve kept things joyful and colorful and focused on the people around them—and that's exactly what made their day so fun to be part of!
