Irresistible Midway Ice Castles Bridal Session

Midway Ice Castles

There’s something absolutely magical about the Midway Ice Castles. With their sparkling icicles, glowing blue walls, and enchanting atmosphere, they’re a dream location for any bridal photoshoot. When we planned this shoot, we knew we wanted to create something breathtaking, and with the incredible vendors involved, we pulled off something truly unforgettable.

The Dream Team Behind the Shoot

This shoot wouldn’t have been possible without an amazing group of talented creatives. Our stunning model, @eeshablogs, brought elegance and grace to every shot, making the Ice Castles feel even more ethereal. Her ability to channel both warmth and beauty in such a frosty setting was nothing short of inspiring.

The florals, created by @gracefullybloomed, were an absolute showstopper. The combination of soft, romantic tones and textures contrasted beautifully against the icy blue backdrop. The bouquet was more than just an accessory—it felt like an extension of the environment, blending nature and art seamlessly.

Collaboration at Its Best

This shoot was co-hosted by @gracefullybloomed and @juliamatherphoto, and their vision brought everything to life. Their ability to organize and curate every detail ensured that the shoot ran smoothly and allowed all the creatives involved to shine. It’s always such a joy to collaborate with professionals who are as passionate and detail-oriented as they are.

Hair and makeup were handled by the incredibly talented @empurcellbeauty. The cold weather didn’t stand a chance against her flawless artistry! From the rosy cheeks to the soft, romantic waves, every detail was designed to complement the winter wonderland setting.

Dresses That Dazzled

The gown featured in this shoot were from @bodabridal and it was nothing short of spectacular. The flowing silhouettes, intricate details, and delicate fabrics stood out beautifully against the icy backdrop. Each dress felt like it belonged in a fairytale, enhancing the magical vibe of the location.

Why the Ice Castles Are Perfect for Photos

The Midway Ice Castles are a photographer’s paradise. The natural light reflecting off the ice creates a soft, luminous glow that flatters every angle. Whether you’re capturing wide shots of the towering icicles or intimate portraits tucked into one of the icy alcoves, there’s no shortage of stunning backdrops.

One thing to keep in mind when shooting at the Ice Castles is dressing for the weather. It’s cold (obviously!), so bringing hand warmers, layers, and comfortable shoes for walking on ice is key. Our model was an absolute trooper, braving the freezing temperatures to get those perfect shots—and it was so worth it!

This bridal shoot at the Midway Ice Castles was truly a collaborative effort that brought together some of the most talented vendors in the industry. The combination of a stunning location, gorgeous florals, beautiful dresses, and expert artistry made this a day to remember.
