When you go get your hair done, you never expect to be set up, or even more meet the person you are going to marry. But that is exactly what happened for Glenn and Michelle! Katie, their mutual friend and hair stylist knew both Glenn and Michelle had shared interests in being outdoors, traveling, cooking and fishing and decided to play matchmaker for the couple!
Glenn knew he was ready to marry Michelle. The night before he proposed, he and Michelle were out late with friends so it took some convincing to get her out of the house the next day. It was a cool and cloudy day and the couple decided to head out to Fort Snelling State Park for a hike together. They had gone on their fourth date here which was memorable to the both of them. When Michelle stopped to rest on a bench, Glenn got down on one knee and proposed. Overjoyed, Michelle said yes and the two headed to Northbound Smokehouse for a bite to eat and to celebrate
Glenn and Michelle’s beautiful May wedding day was filled with sunshine joy and fun. Friends and family came from all over the state to celebrate with them as they were wed at the incredible and elegant St Bartholomew Church in Wayzata.
Michelle’s elegant, white Sottero and Midgley dress from Bella Bridal Boutique paired perfectly with Glenn’s navy suit from Men’s Warehouse. The bridal party consisted of just family of Glenn and Michelle and her sister wore a dress from Bridal Accent Couture to match the classic theme.
Anne from Bloomberry Floral provided the most gorgeous classic white florals while The Thirsty Whale created a Star Wars themed cake (May the 4th be with you!) that was both incredible to look at and delightful to taste!
After the wedding, Michelle and Glenn headed to Lake Minnetonka in a rented Tesla and we were able to capture some beautiful shots near the Depot. Wayzata Country Club hosted the ballroom bash while Instant Request brought the music throughout the night as guests danced away as Glenn and Michelle led them in a few Greek dances!
At dusk, we headed to the iconic Oak tree on the property and then ended with a sparkler getaway!
Glenn and Michelle, it was an honor to spend the day with you and your incredible friends and family. Thank you for making me feel like a long time friend. What a blast it was!
