KATRINA & BRADFORD | Northern Wisconsin Backyard Wedding

July 12, 2022

Northern Wisconsin Backyard Wedding

This super laidback Northern Wisconsin Backyard Wedding was a breath of fresh air! No one was in a rush, everyone was in the moment, and there was so much laughing!!!! We all kept checking the weather as storms rolled through Wisconsin all over! Thankfully it only sprinkled during the ceremony, and we were all in the tent when it poured. It was simply perfect!

Let this rad couple tell their story, as they can tell it better than I can!

How did they meet?

We met at a movie theater while working together. We met in October 2016, and the holidays were coming up. It was set up at the theater where you’d work one holiday and have the other one-off (Thanksgiving and Christmas). I (Katrina) didn’t know about the whole sign-up sheet until it was too late. The slots were booked for Thanksgiving and the only available work day was Christmas.

Well, my mother’s birthday is on Christmas, and it has been such a huge celebration in my family. And at this moment, the home was about 4.5 hours away. So I couldn’t just drive there and back in one day. Bradford found out about this and decided he’d work BOTH Thanksgiving and Christmas to let me go home to celebrate. I didn’t realize this until our manager approached me to let me know.

I knew I needed to thank Bradford. I got him a UW-Badger wallet (it still hasn’t opened yet). I came in when I knew he’d be there, and I gave him the gift and said thank you! By the time he could say anything, I was gone. I was still pretty shy. Anyway, that led him to text me his thank you, and we kept texting from then on.

Their rad proposal story?

So, it started back on Valentine’s of 2021. Bradford got me this beautiful necklace, and I came up with the idea. I suggested that we should get all dressed up and see a movie. At this point, with covid, the movie theater we met at was not completely open. But there was another one, a smaller one available, that we had worked at on separate occasions. Also, because of covid, the theater was allowing groups of people to rent out auditoriums for private screenings. We had done this at least once or twice before. So, Bradford starts planning.

We will come up with a movie might in March. We wanted it to be a movie we hadn’t seen on the big screen (“Me before you”), one we’d watched together but while at home. So we wanted to watch it at the theater. Once we got into the theater, the lights were on (it didn’t dawn on me as to why). And before the movie started, Bradford dropped to one knee and asked me to marry him.

Bradford, what do you love most about Katrina?

His ability to be so understanding. If we get into a disagreement, it takes him no effort to see things from my point of view. He’s also a fantastic cat dad.

Katrina, what do you love most about Bradford?

What I love most about Katrina is her kind heart!

What advice do you have for couples planning their wedding day?

Take a minute to get away from the crowd and your family and hang out with your S.O. Have that one-on-one time with them. It doesn’t have to be super long, but the night will be over before you know it. I was so worried that I wasn’t talking to my guests enough. Don’t worry. It’s your wedding day -it’s about you guys!

How do you feel about your decision to go with Natural Intuition Photography?

We feel great about picking you guys! The best part of working with you guys: was professionalism- you guys knew what you were doing. I don’t think I even noticed you guys during the ceremony. You guys are super nice! Everyone talked about how nice you guys are afterward. Super easy to work with!
