Leah and Greg’s summer wedding at The Osthoff Resort in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin was filled with the kind of joy that comes from two people who have known each other for a long time. Before they were a couple, they were friends for eight years—a friendship that started through Leah’s twin brother and eventually became something more when the timing finally lined up. They spent years cheering each other on through different seasons of life, and when they finally started dating, it felt like the most natural thing in the world.
That history was evident throughout their wedding day. Before the ceremony, Leah and Greg shared a first look and exchanged private vows, creating one of the most meaningful moments of the day. There was an ease between them that only comes from years of friendship, and it made every interaction feel genuine and effortless. Their engagement story followed a similar theme—Greg proposed after making reservations at the restaurant where they had shared their first date, bringing their story full circle.
When it came time to plan their wedding, Leah knew she wanted something different. After standing beside so many friends as a bridesmaid, she wanted a venue that felt unique to them. The Osthoff Resort was the perfect fit. Their outdoor gazebo ceremony overlooking Elkhart Lake provided a beautiful backdrop for their vows, while the ballroom reception offered plenty of space for guests to celebrate. The entire day felt relaxed, fun, and full of energy—the kind of wedding where cocktails are flowing, friends are laughing, and nobody wants the night to end.
As a Wisconsin wedding videographer, weddings at The Osthoff Resort are always a favorite to capture. Between the lake views, the elegant event spaces, and the atmosphere of Elkhart Lake itself, it’s a venue that creates an incredible setting for both intimate moments and big celebrations. Leah and Greg’s wedding was a perfect reflection of who they are: lifelong friends, surrounded by family and friends, celebrating the start of a new chapter together.
