Flutter Boutique provided the green bridesmaid dresses.

The guys all wore tuxes from Savvi Formal Wear.

Trevor purchased Jana’s ring at Spence Diamonds in Mississauga, Ontario. And the couples rings were found at Jared.

Another great detail( and one that I was coveting on the wedding day) were the sweet jewelry Jana picked out for her bridesmaids from Charming Charlie’s.

Invitations for Less created the invitations, and Jana’s mother made the place cards herself.

Jana’s hair and make-up were done at Taj Salon and Spa.

Advent Lutheran in Maple Grove held the wedding ceremony.

The Wellstead in Rogers is where the reception took place.

        Steve and Laura: Details of a St. Paul wedding

        It was a perfect day for a July wedding and Steve and Laura were the perfect couple to get it!  The vendors that helped with the day made it just as beautiful.

        The ceremony and Reception were held at the beautiful and historic James J. Hill Reference Library.

        Laura’s dress was Designer Mori Lee, from The Wedding Shoppe in St Paul.

        Her shoes were the elegant Nina Bridal from Zappos.

        Dawn at Main Floral in Anoka, which was the shop Laura used to work at, provided the summery floral arrangements.

        The Bridesmaid dresses were from the designer Jasmine, from Heartstrings Bridal in Hopkins.

        Laura’s engagement ring Continental Diamond and both wedding bands were from Jared.

        I just adored Steve and Laura’s invitations, place cards, table numbers were from the talented  Jayme Fort.

        I loved the way this couple incorporated their favorite things!  On the tables they had created boxes with game cards from games like “Who wants to be a Millionaire” and “Trivial Pursuit” as something for guests to do while they waited for food to be served!

        While waking down the aisle, Laura held her something old.  Her Grandmother’s handkerchief.

        The men’s suits were Jones New York, from Mens Wearhouse. The groomsman’s ties Charter Club, from Macy’s.

        Steve sported a Calvin Klein tie, from Macy’s.  Laura’s hair and make up were done at e42nd street salon in Minneapolis.

        The many different cakes were from Cafe Latte in St. Paul.

        About a month ago I posted that I was looking for a groom to sport some sweet socks.  Laura and Steve saw the post and popped these sweet socks on!  

        They literally made my day and made me realize these posts are not in vein!  Thanks to you who faithfully read the blog.  Details like this make my job so. much. FUN!!  More to come tomorrow of this beautiful couple!

          Chris and Lauren: details of a Minneapolis wedding

          My wedding season has begun!  It couldn’t have started better, Chris and Lauren were so much fun to work with!  They wanted their day to stand out and found great details to make their day their own.

          Lauren’s dress was found at The Wedding Shoppe and fit her like a glove!

          Her shoes were found at one of my favorite stores: White House Black Market

          Invites were made by Lauren and Chris they used a signature tree representing the tree they were engaged under during the holiday season.

          Lauren’s earrings added the perfect touch to her dress.

          The flowers and decor were brought in by Event Labs.

          Inside Lauren’s flowers held the something old, a ring that was her grandmother’s and a string of beads that were Chris’ grandmother’s.

          The ceremony was held at Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran Church in Apple Valley.

          Cupcakes were made by Dorothy Ann’s.

          And the candy bar favors were a mix of the candies that Chris and Lauren love.

          The Cheese and Olive oil appetizers were a speciality of Brackett’s Crossing where the reception was held,  and the Stillwater Olive Oil company.

          The groomsmen and Bridesmaid dresses were also found at the Wedding Shoppe in St. Paul.

          Their rings were gorgeous!

          And the thank you sign that they created continued to hold their monogram of a tree, that Chris freehand painted himself!

          More to come tomorrow of this beautiful couple!
