Abulea Wedding Photography | New Years Eve Wedding | Elle & Patrick |

Elle and Patrick's wedding was on the door step of 2017 new years eve . I shot this wedding with Justin Mark Photography as a last minute favor because Justin was pretty stick the day before! Back to Elle and Patrick they decided to get ready at abulea in downtown st paul right by Mears Park and CHS field. The ceremony was held at St. Thomas Chapel. Although it was pretty cold it didn't phase Elle as she was up for the challenge as was the entire wedding party because no body complained with giant smiles in front of the camera!

As the ceremony began, the chapel forgot to take down the life-size nativity scene at the alter! So tip for those choosing holidays for your wedding remember to make sure SOMEONE is assigned to take down the churches decorations! It would not have been that big of deal if it did not take up 1/3 of the alter where these two love birds tied the knot!  

After the ceremony we all meet up at Abulea for a comfotable and GORGEOUS reception!

Studio 514 Wedding Photography | Lindsey & Peter

As minnesota transitioned from its warm summer to its stunning fall colors, Peter and Lindsey said their I dos. A Jessica Smith Photography wedding filled with navy blue wedding details and greys with twinkle lights to shine on them as they had a Studio 514 wedding ceremony and reception in minneapolis. They guys got ready at Peter's apartment; while they were getting ready they enjoyed the soccer game on TV.
During the first look and the bride and groom portraits, Lindsey and Peter were so natural at being cuddly and loving towards each other they hardly needed any direction at all.
They met at work as their organization helps prepare kids to graduate high school.
 

These two are madly in love and anyone walking by can see it. I am so thankful to have been able to capture their day with them.  And another shout out to the wonderful Jessica Smith for giving me the opportunity to shoot with her!

Minikahda Club Wedding Photography | Mac & Mel

It's their wedding day taking place at the beautiful Minikahda Club for their ceremony and their reception. "They are like a bride and groom from stock photos!" You know when you hear that comment it is gonna a be a good day! Another wedding shot with the wonderful Jessica Smith from Jessica Smith photography, the day for me started off shooting the guys getting ready at Mac's friend TJ's house. This group of guys were READY TO PARTY and i was excited shoot all their craziness. Before we leftthe house the guys did a beer shot and then Mac and I were on our way for the first look! 

Mac and Mel were highschool sweethearts. As they got to their freshman in college they made the decision to go their separate ways as they were going to separate colleges. Over the years and on other circumstances they both found themselves transferred at the U of M, where they shortly picked up where they left off. As Mac gushed all about Mel on our car ride to the first look, one thing was truly evident, this man's heart was wholeheartedly stolen by his bride.   

The weather was stunning and with the drinks flowing throughout the day, the wedding party was having a blast! The ceremony space had a breathtaking view of the minneapolis skyline! But nothing took my breath away more than watching Mac teary eyed view his bride come down to aisle. Standing by the bridesmaids I know I wasn't the only one tearing up! After the ceremony finished with the I dos and lots of cheering from the crowd we were on our way to the reception downstairs!

The grand entrance was literally that: GRAND. When the bride and groom entered the room the dance floor filled with the wedding party inviting everyone to join them on the dance floor to bring down the house. This was literally my favorite grand entrance of all time. It was fantastic. If you are ready to party please do not hesitate to book me!  

Mac and Mels wedding was one of my favorite weddings I have captured and I am so grateful to have been a part of their love story! Enjoy their photos! ♡♡♡
