Amanada & Luke Marry in Minneapolis’s Blaisdell Mansion!

ARRIVING early the ladies started their day getting ready in Blaisdells getting ready room. The Blaisdell is a Minneapolis Mansion Wedding venue in the Twin Cities of Minnesota! Amanda and Luke made sure to surround themselves with their best people for their wedding day! Everyone had such great high energy all day. It made the day so enjoyable! Amanda's wedding dress fit like a dream and her and Luke had their first look just outside the front of the house. (The ladies inside enjoyed peaking through the window to see it too!) Luke had seen the dress before, but he admitted he forgot what it looked like, which Amanda figured that would happen. They were excited to see each other!

For more portraits off site, we made our way to Minneapolis Institute of Art. Some of my favorite photos of the day were taken here! After a good amount of portrait time that ended with a little rain, we headed back to The Blaisdell for the rest of the day! Apparently the rain can't get enough of Luke & Amanda. (It downpoured at their engagement session link at the end)

Their good friend Eric officiated their wedding. He talk on their love story and how fun it was to see them grow and sacrifice for one another. They grew to love each other's interests- anime, dungeon & dragons, cats like their Loui. When it was Amanda's turn to read her vows she welcomed everyone to their self-proclaimed β€œnerd” Wedding. One thing they uniquely did for their ceremony was they had the wedding party on the opposite side so the bridesmaids could she Amanda's face and the Groomsmen could see Luke's face. Before you knew it they were husband and wife and did one of the best dip kisses in the aisle! It is a must see!

Amanda and Luke are travelers at heart so for their tables they did different locations they had been all over the world instead of table numbers! After Speeches and food, the night ended with one of the best dance parties I've ever photographed! Everyone was having an absolute blast!

Please enjoy Amanda and Luke's wedding day at The Blaisdell!

Emily & Brandon Married at Plymouth Community Center’s Millennium Garden!

Emily and Brandon got married on a cool fall day. The best way to keep away the cold is to cuddle up in your lovers arms so we made do for all our portrait time together!

Walking through the Millennium Garden at Plymouths Community Center just added to the beauty of the day and the stunning details this couple had envisioned and made happen for their big day. All the added fall colors throughout the day like the color of the ladies dresses and the the guy’s flowers were lovely. I think their personalities really came through in in the time they spent together. Brandon was no nervous, just excited and Emily was just happy to spend the day with Brandon. The ceremony was outside in Millennium Garden; it was a beautiful symbol of a new marriage and the hope for a long and happy future.

After making it official with a kiss, we all went into the Plymouth’s Community Center Ballroom to keep the celebration going with food and dancing!

Please enjoy this look into Emily and Brandon’s Wedding Day!

Wisconsin Engagement Photos with Savannah & Tim!

Savannah and Tim invited me on their hunting property for some engagement photos! They wanted somewhere that was special to them and they love spending time together in the quiet of nature.

These two first found each other online and eventually got around to meet in person. First date was at rudies red bar and grill and they went to see Christmas lights after. The time together seemed so natural and unforced, like time flew by and before they knew it it was 4 hours later. It is so cool when you are with the right person, time speeds up around you even though with your person it seems to stand still. Tim had bought her a Irish ring with the heart to make dating official.

Tim proposed on their boat at the lake outside their home. The priest at their church started giving them pre-marriage counselling before they were engaged because he knew they were already on the road to being married. Savannah and Tim are only a few months out from their wedding day and I cannot wait!

Please enjoy a small sneak peek of their engagement session on their property in Wisconsin
