"Every great relationship starts with a great friendship."

Well, in this case it was Nick + Rachael's brothers/dad! Now this story goes back quite a few years and differs slightly from person to person. But we think we like hearing the father of the bride's version best and what he says about fellow hunting buddy turned son-in-law😂

To be fair, their love for eachother was so obvious that its no wonder they ended up together. So despite the name being less catchy, I should have titled this, "Groom Marries Best Friend."
Hope you enjoy the Hoffman Wedding Sneak Peek from their perfect fall day in Waterloo, IA.

"The solution is love." The beauty of blending two cultures together was everywhere at the Miller Wedding.
Between meeting the bride's family who traveled from Paraguay and the groom's father who doubled as lead singer of the band, the day was amazing!

We've been building the hype for Emily and Haven's wedding via group texts and video chats for almost a year. Cant believe its already come and gone. Congrats to the Millers!

Enjoy this sneak peek from their wedding in Dubuque, IA.

Soaking up the last few days of summer.

10.16.21 is right around the corner.

Taylor + Jordan. Chanhassen, MN.

Her calm to his crazy. A wonderful weekend celebrating these two in the land of 10,000 lakes.

From their lakeside rehearsal to reception at a dinner theater, the weekend was filled with so many stories, great food, laughs, and love. Taylor and Jordan met in college at Iowa State University. After a few years together, they decided the time was right and were officially married in the heart of the pandemic. These "newlyweds" waited over a year to celebrate with family and friend. But you'd never know from the ear-to-ear smiles worn Friday through Sunday. Sign me up for more laid back wedding weekends like this!
————————————

It’s been a minute since I’ve held a camera and didn’t press record. I love to be pushed creatively but I think I’ll leave that to the professionals from now on. If I didn't already know Jordan, this videographer would've ran for the hills but it was nothing short of a pleasure to partake in. Especially due to persuading Kait Parsons into second shooting for me (you da real MVP).

Also, thanks to the Weddings & Events at Chanhassen Dinner Theatres crew for putting on an excellent event! Robyn and the team were fantastic while DJ Joe Albrecht had the party bumpin! Made it hard to leave when the memory cards were full.
