Happy Wedding Day, Rachel and Alec!
🩵
These lovebirds met through mutual friends. What started as a night out in Uptown, ended with a skee-ball game and a connection that couldn’t be denied. The rest is history! They love to travel together and exploring new places is their passion, sometimes with their fur baby, Bo! Alec proposed to Rachel during one of their many adventures- during a sunrise walk along the North Shore on their 5-year anniversary! And now here we are!
☀️
This amazing couple has a beautiful day planned for their loved ones, and it’s been a joy to help them bring their wedding vision to life! They’re featuring colors of slate blue and terracotta, with accents in white and amber. They’ve incorporated so many personal elements as well, including a beautiful ceremony officiated by a dear friend that’s going to be a tear-jerker. We’re so excited for this beautiful day!

Happy Wedding Day, Meredith and Cameron!
🩵
We’re rolling right into the 2024 season, and celebrating these two with a winter wonderland camp wedding!

Happy Wedding Day, Bri and Danny!
🤍
These two are so kind, playful and loving with one another! And to those around them. Their adoration for each other is obvious. They met during college in Iowa, and a beautiful friendship then grew into love. These are two very busy people who are very intentional about their love and relationship. They can’t wait to spend their wedding day with their closest family and friends, and as they put it, “we’re looking forward to us. We want to spend time together.”
🥹
They’ve planned an intimate, classic and romantic wedding. Cue all the romantic candles! Their reception will feature communal banquet tables, family-style dining, and a center dance floor, creating a very intimate experience with their guests. Bri’s aunt is officiating, and Bri’s mom planned the beautiful decor, for this family-focused wedding. Then they can’t wait to hit the dance floor and dance the night away! It’s going to be a very intentional, special, beautiful day!

Happy Wedding Day, Kayla and Nick!
🤍
Kayla and Nick have been together for more than 6 years! They are fun, kind, adventurous, and can’t wait to start this next chapter of marriage together. Nick proposed on Christmas Eve with their fur baby, Birdie, wearing a bandana reading, “Will you marry my dad?” Kayla was so surprised and of course excitedly said yes! They can’t wait to enjoy their day with their closest family and friends!
🐶
Kayla and Nick’s wedding will feature a color palette of blush, pink, maroon, along with mums, wood accents, and pumpkins. A true vision for a fall wedding! They’ve planned an intimate celebration with their nearest and dearest, and are looking forward to a laid back, fun party! Their special day would not be complete without Birdie! She’ll of course be there as well to celebrate her parents’ wonderful wedding day!

Happy Wedding Day, Bre and Shane!
💜
These two are such a fun, charismatic couple! They like to have a good time and created a wedding vision around that. Bre and Shane love food and cooking, traveling, and are both obsessed with their fur babies, Minnie and Bear!

🐶
Bre and Shane designed their wedding with a jewel-toned and fall-inspired theme, and added things they really love! Minnie and Bear onsite, llamas, breakfast food, personalized songs, favorite drinks at the tap truck, all at a venue right by their home. It’s going to be an amazing day that truly feels like them! We can’t wait!

Happy Wedding Day, Emma and Isaac!
💚
These kind, thoughtful lovebirds met at work in 2013, and this eventually led to a friendship, with frequent lunch outings and cribbage games in the park. As you probably guessed, this friendship eventually led to a loving relationship with a proposal during their annual fall trip to the Boundary Waters! These two love nature and outdoor adventures, and look forward to many more as a married couple!
🍁
Emma and Isaac are really excited for their outdoor ceremony, and spending time with their loved ones. Silverwood Park is the perfect venue for these outdoor enthusiasts. We planned a gorgeous, warm fall palette and design to bring the nature indoors for their reception, and to make it feel like them! We did complete wedding planning with these two, so it’s been a joy to get to know them and to plan their amazing wedding with them! We’re so happy for Emma and Isaac!

💗
Carly and Preston are such a fun couple! These two met as most classic love stories begin, when they were introduced through a friend! It’s been a wonderful journey for these two as they have gotten to know one another through their love of food and music. They have enjoyed going to a variety of music shows and trying out all the hot spots for food and drinks around the Twin Cities!

Their wedding day will begin with a beautiful ceremony at the Peace Garden, taking in the last sweet days of summer with their loved ones. Carly and Preston cannot wait to share their love of food and music as well through a reception at a classic Minneapolis music venue. A lovely cocktail hour on the patio, signature drinks and delicious appetizers will kick-off the celebration.

Happy Wedding Day, Priya and Nolan!
🥂
These two beautiful, amazing people were friends for more than 5 years, and then fell in love. They’ve been a couple for nearly 3 years and cannot wait to get married and celebrate with their loved ones! Their entire weekend celebration is a fusion and combination of their Hindu and Western cultures, and a blending of their families and friends. These two really love their people!
💞
They’ve incorporated so many personal elements into their wedding and celebrations, so that the elegant event also feels like them - a specialty drink in honor of their fur baby, Harry Potter and Star Wars table names, favorite songs, and a beautiful fusion ceremony. Not to mention the stunning decor in silver, white and lavender. Last night’s Sangeet was amazing, and we know a great indication of what’s in store for today! We can’t wait to celebrate these two!

Jenn and Logan are such a sweet couple! These two began their love story with a 5-hour date at a local brewery, which was just the beginning of almost 5 years of good times together and soon many more! It’s been an incredible journey full of love and excitement for these two! Minnesota has become their home, where these two find joy in spending time with their friends and family while being out in nature.
🌲
Their love for nature will be on full display as their ceremony overlooks a beautiful lake, and their reception will be lit up with sweet tea lights and greenery, with floor to ceiling windows bringing the nature inside.

They have been world travelers for quite some time, always finding a new place to explore. This will play a fun part in their decor as each guest table will be a location from their travels.

Their decor also includes really fun floral statement pieces, bringing an elegant pop from their ceremony into the cocktail hour and reception! Hope and Jay truly want everyone to enjoy themselves as the night continues with an ice cream truck for dessert and a band rocking out to end the night with a bang!

Happy Wedding Day, Helen and Anthony!
💙
These two lovebirds met in California when they both moved there for work. They met through a mutual friend and found out they were both from Minnesota! They have friends and family traveling from all over the world to celebrate with them, including from England, and they wanted to plan a classic Minnesota summer week on the water for everyone to enjoy! Everyone is staying at Cragun’s Resort, and then they found a gorgeous venue they love just 10 minutes from Cragun’s! Helen is also named after her grandma Helen, and they’ll now share a wedding anniversary of 8/25. A lot of things about this couple and their wedding are so serendipitous and meant to be!
🥰
They cannot wait to celebrate with everyone! Helen and Anthony said they want to see each other on their wedding morning, and can’t wait to be present with all of their people! These big ski lovers incorporated so many personalized, beautiful, fun elements into their decor, including a special way for guests to find their seats!

Happy Wedding Day, Willa and Ethan!
💛
Willa and Ethan met during the height of the pandemic. A Zoom date was then followed by a few socially-distanced dates to finally go all in, into what was the beginning of their beautiful love story. They are such a creative, quirky and sweet couple who have created the best community and environment for all of those who get to meet them. When they finally could have a true date in-person, they created a hotel experience in Willa’s apartment, modeled after Hotel Astoria – named Hotel Waldwoof Astoria – with their dog, Ernest giving the inspiration for the name! That’s why this wedding strays a little from tradition as Willa and Ethan have created a weekend-long experience that they call Camp Waldwoof, a new extension of Hotel Waldwoof.
🏕️
When asked what they envision for this celebration, Willa and Ethan said “joyful chaos”! Willa and Ethan's priorities are their loved ones and and everyone having an amazing time. The most joy for them is bringing them all together in a camp-like experience, especially somewhere that means a lot to Willa, as she grew up going to this camp! Camp Waldwoof will begin with a whimsical, woodsy rehearsal dinner, then a full camp day filled with waterfront activities and carnival games, andending the weekend with a vibrant, exciting ceremony and reception. It will be a memorable experience for all!
