Grace + Joey are up on our portfolio ✨

These two are what every wedding vendor would hope to work with - kind, trusting of their vendors and just down right fun!

We knew we vibed super well with our bride Grace but what sealed the deal was hearing Joey’s thank you speech which included a question he asked Grace on their first date - “Do you LOVE to win or HATE to lose?” Her answer of course - hate to lose!

Grace and Joey here is to a long life of not losing and happiness 😘🤣

Go on and make a statement with your dance area - we can promise you, you won’t regret it!

13 years ago long before 4 businesses, 3 kids, multiple cross state moves we would have never imagined our lives would be so engulfed with others special moments and events.

On our day we picked vendors we trusted and knew our day would have not been the same without them. So to our clients who bring us on to their day - know we never lose touch at what an honor that is.

We do not envy the position most of you are in getting married these days as we got married before Pinterest, Instagram or Tik Tok were a thing or a BiG thing! We planned in the age of magazines and . And yes our wedding was featured in the beloved blog but I can guarantee you it had nothing to do with the decor, the dress or any other element other than the story of love realized at the age of 13 💙

Our biggest pieces of advice during wedding planning (some which are interesting coming from a production company - but I promised I would never lose sight that I too was once a bride and my biggest priority was just wanting to get married - it had nothing to do with wowing anyone!)

- Remember the person you are choosing to spend the rest of your life with is so much more important than the flowers, napkins or chairs you choose (clearly as we choose the chairs we are selling off from our inventory 😜)

- It’s one day and don’t lose sight of what that day is really about

- Choose elements that will stand the test of time aka crystal chandeliers

- If incorporating a fad do it wisely and sparsely — hello ombré wedding cake 🫣

- Pick your wedding party wisely. Don’t just have someone because you feel obligated to. Who do you want standing next to you on your most special day?

- Know the advice your planner, designer or vendors give you might not be advice they took at their wedding. Here’s to looking at those bridesmaids bouquets on a table.

- Do a last dance. Hands down the moment we always go back to. All guests left and we hand a moment for one last dance just us two to soaks in those last moments.

Camille + Drew

When you can’t get married at your childhood home - hello really sloped backyards on Lake Minnetonka - why not get married across the lake so your home is in the background of your sunset pictures!!

C+D got married at Lafayette Club on a beautiful summer day full of color, floral and lots of love and laughter by all their friends and family.

Almost all year we have our heads down - grinding away producing one event to the next. At times it feels like we can barely keep up let alone breathe.

The weight of perfection is always on our shoulders, not because a client puts it there,
but because the expectations of our team and our work are high due to our own standards.

We expect nothing short of perfection for our clients since they choose to spend their most special days and moments with us!

As each season slows down and we can FINALLY update our portfolios we love finding these images. The embraces, the smiles, the awe.

We are honored to produce, plans, design, rent to all of you!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from the Collected & Co. family!

Some sneak peeks from our favorite corkage party of the year.

Two years ago the design was focused on their brand colors, last year we went neutral, refined night club vibes and this year we said how about we go sexy and moody!

The company loved how all of this came together which is not a surprise with the amazing team of vendors who collaborated to knock this out of the park!

What’s your favorite aspect?

The vibes, the reception dress, the live music 👌🏻

Also love how many photos we get to share in one post as of late. Sit back and enjoy some fun images from from Annika and Mack’s wedding!
