Christy & Micheal's Minnesota Winter Wedding at First Baptist Church

Christy and Micheal wedding day started off a foggy morning at 17 degrees. Knowing we were adventuring outside Christy had her car packed with snow boots, hardwarmes, and blankets. She came prepared! She got ready with her sisters and friends in one of First Baptists upstairs classrooms. Christy fit into her dress like a glove, looking like it had been made for her.

She did a first look with her father in the Johnson chapel. Her dad just soaked her in and told her how proud he was of her. It was one of my favorite moments of their day.

Micheal went ahead of us to their own first look at Lebanon Hills Regional Park. Their spot for the first look is one of Christy’s favorite spots in her area that she would explore from time to time. The time with them at Lebanon was so full of joy and excitement; it just made the day very special. By mid afternoon the fog had rolled away and God gave us some beautiful sun shining through the trees just in time for wedding party portraits.

We headed back to the church to get married!!

Christy decorated the church aisle with large lanterns with flowers to guide their way up the aisle. She walked up the aisle barefoot her arm linked with her fathers. They said traditional vows because it was always something Christy had loved growing up.

A kiss sealed the deal and now they are a new Mrs & Mr. ! One of my favorite highlights of the day was right after they walked back up the aisle, Micheal and Christy slipped into a side room to take a private moment to hug and just reflect on what just took place. It was so sweet to witness.
Since we are in the middle of a pandemic, Christy and Micheal had to put off a big reception for another date. They did have a intimate reception with their core family to finish our the night!

I hope you enjoy their photos from their winter wedding.
