Never Leave!

The Hay Loft in Watertown, WI was the picturesque backdrop for Amber and Coleman’s countryside wedding celebration!  Pastors Ben Roekle and John Roekle did a wonderful job leading the worship service which united our newlyweds as husband and wife.  Following the ceremony and receiving line, guests made their way to the lower level for appetizers, cocktails, and fellowship.  Before long, it was time for grand march introductions with our awesome wedding party and a delicious dinner prepared by the catering team.  Following speeches and toasts, it was time to move some furniture and get the party started! From the first dance to the last, the barn was rocking all night long!  Very special thanks to Laura, Karen, and everyone who came to give their best wishes to the new Mr. & Mrs. Moore!

Spin You Around!

Alix and Tyler celebrated their marriage at The Covenant at Murray Mansion, and SSE was there for all the excitement!  Tyler’s brother CJ did a fantastic job officiating the service.  While guests enjoyed cocktails and fellowship in Murray Mansion, Hannah and the event team prepared The Covenant for the festivities to come.  An NBA-inspired grand march got everyone excited with the introduction of our super-sized wedding party.  This crew brought the energy from the first dance to the last – what a night!  Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs….wait for it….Tirella!

Beyond!

The Covenant at Murray Mansion was the site of Shannon and Kyle’s beautiful wedding ceremony and reception!  Buttercup Bouquets adorned the space with amazing florals, including a stunning alter centerpiece.  The service was heartfelt and touching with live music from Gabriel’s Horns.  Guests from near and far came to give their best wishes to the newlyweds during cocktail hour in Murray Mansion.  With EDM vibes in the air we kicked up our heels and danced the night away!  Congrats to the new Mr. & Mrs. Wheat!

You Are The Reason!

Veteran’s Terrace in Burlington was the site of Caitlin and Michael’s spectacular spring wedding!  Caitlin and Michael were hopeful to host their ceremony outdoors on the beautiful terrace.  After morning thunderstorms made their way through the area, it felt like summertime in March - with sunny skies and warm breezes all afternoon long!  Bryan did a wonderful job officiating the service, with plenty of laughs, smiles, and happy tears shared by all.  Following the vows, guests enjoyed cocktails outdoors while Josh and Lindsay from Lichter Photography captured pictures of the family and wedding party.  An epic grand march kicked off the celebration in the ballroom and set the pace for the rest of the night!  A delicious dinner, touching speeches, sunset pictures, and the table rush game were just some of memorable highlights.  Caitlin and Michael’s first dance took place outside under twinkling lights, with the remainder of the dancing taking place in the ballroom.  The wedding party and guests brought some amazing energy – we had a blast!  Big thanks to the event team at Veteran’s Terrace, Josh and Lindsay, the very kind and helpful wedding party, and everyone who came from near and far to celebrate with the new Mr. & Mrs. Hawes!

Kenosha Area Pipes & Drums!

Upper East in Downtown Kenosha was the place to be for some Irish fun!  The Kenosha Area Pipes & Drums brigade made a stop on their tour to a packed house.  A capacity crowd enjoyed Irish fare and themed cocktails prepared by the excellent event team from Culinary Infusion.  Big thanks to the entire crew who made it happen, we can’t wait for next year!

One I Want!

It was a historic February wedding celebration that we’ll never forget!  SSE was thrilled to celebrate the marriage of Chelsea and Eli at The DeKoven center on the shores of Lake Michigan in Racine.  We not only had the pleasure of providing entertainment for the reception, but also the honor of officiating the ceremony as well.  The rehearsal on Friday afternoon went very smoothly and helped to answer any final questions from our awesome wedding party. There wasn’t a dry eye in St. John’s Chapel when Chelsea and her dad made their way down the aisle – what a moment!  Following the service, guests made their way to the Great Hall while the family took pictures with Northern Roots Portraits.  The introduction of the newlyweds kicked off the next phase of the celebration and the delicious dinner prepared by Corey and the team from Catering by Chef John and the Red Onion Cafe. First dances were memorable and heartfelt, including an anniversary dance and special words from Chelsea and Eli.  We gathered everyone for a huge group picture before opening up the dance floor and letting loose!  Big thanks to the staff at The DeKoven Center, Kim & Tim, Dawn & Gary, and the entire wedding party for being so warm and welcoming.  Congrats to the new Mr. & Mrs. Dzurino!

Betting On A Cure!

The bets are in, and the odds are in our favor!  Our friends from the Relay For Life of Racine gathered at Mike & Angelo’s for the 2025 Relay kick-off!  SSE provided great tunes while guests enjoyed fun photo-ops, delicious pizza, and learned all about the important fundraising activities to come.  This year, Relay is turning up the stakes with a Lucky 13 and Casino Royale theme, where every dollar raised is a winner, and brings us one step closer to a world without cancer.  We can’t wait for Friday June 13 at Campus Park in Mount Pleasant – we’re betting high and making a difference!
