Joe & Becky ~ Minnesota Valley Country Club

3/30/15

There are those weddings that will forever be ingrained in your mind mainly because the couple is absolutely adorable, so in love and their wedding is 100% them.   Becky and Joe are definitely one of those couples and their wedding was absolutely exquisite! I think we nailed the color scheme on the head when paired with those beautiful purple dresses and the amazing fall color backdrop!! The bold jeweled tone flowers were my favorite combination from this wedding season and the amazingly talented McCartney's captured them and their day flawlessly!  I smile every time I see images from this wedding and have had numerous brides come to consultations with these pictures as inspiration for their wedding day!  
 
 





Luke & Jennifer ~ Landmark Center, St Paul MN

Pretty in Pink and one very stunning bride!!!  As you can tell by the pictures the look feel of their wedding was soft, elegant, pink and graceful with beautiful accents of textured linens, chevron prints and silver!  The florals were a mix of hydrangea, roses and ranunculus in shades of pink and cream! At the reception we did large candelabra designs on the harvest table and then a mix of tall baby's breath, low floral design in a pedestal vase and an all candle centerpiece to help fill the Landmarks very open room.
 Enjoy Luke & Jennifer's Landmark Center Wedding!

Branden & Erin ~ Oak Ridge Conference Center, Chaska MN

3/16/15

Oh what fun this couple, their families, the vendors and the wedding was!  It has been so much fun for me to relive my past weddings because I get to go back and enjoy the memories of planning, designing and my couples!  Erin & Branden hired me for full planning, flowers and decor. We got started right away with a beautiful design concept that incorporated their love for each other, orchids, chinchillas, science, tachos, games, food and wine!   The wedding and reception were in September at Oak Ridge in Chaska and it could not have been a more perfect fall day for an outdoor wedding, games in the lawn and cocktail hour on the patio overlooking the woods and lake. They had the most unique unity ceremony I have ever seen which looked more like a science experiment but reflected both of them, their interests and careers perfectly. One of my favorite decor elements we did was backdrop within the ceremony arbor that included hanging crystals and test tubes with a single white ranunculus. This is one of those weddings I will never forget as I enjoyed working with all of them so much and the overall concept and designs were a dream to create!!

 All of this paired with a top notch vendor team made for a beautiful celebration followed up with a night of partying.  Enjoy these amazing photo's from the talented Kate Botwinski who captured these two and their wedding day perfectly!  Congrats to Erin & Branden on your adorable son Xavier!!
