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!

    My all time favorite wedding blogs

    In the last week I have referred two of my clients to my all time favorite wedding blogs.  I am continuously inspired by these sites and awestruck at the creativity that vendors and brides have created to make their wedding day spectacular.  Check out these great sites, but make sure you have some time.  I have been caught for hours perusing the sites…

    Jeff and Audie: Forepaws wedding

    West Bend Iowa is known for being Home of the Grotto of the Redemption, Iowa’s Eighth Wonder of the Modern World, but for Audie and Jeff, West Bend is where the two reconnected.   Jeff had been one of Audie’s older brother’s good friends.  Throughout high school Jeff was continuously in Audie’s life, but after graduation they both moved on.  Then during one summer night street dance the two reconnected and picked up right where they left off.   Their friendship had grown as they had grown more and more in love with one another. I just adored being with these two.  They were so easy going and generous, kind and considerate to all around them.  Blessings to you both as you embark on this wonderful journey!

      Jeff and Audie: Details of a St. Paul Wedding

      I am in love with Forepaugh’s in St. Paul.  Elegant, yet so simplistic.  Audie and Jeff chose such a beautiful location to exchange their vows with their intimate group of family and friends attending.

      Audie’s dress, fit the elegant location, and it was beautiful on her.  It was found at Dena Marie Bridal and Tux.


      Hub Jewelers provided the couple with beautiful wedding rings, necklaces, earrings, and bracelets for not only Audie, but for her beautiful bridesmaids.

      The men wore JoS A. Bank tuxes like studs.

      Audie’s hair was done by Morgan at Regis Hair Salon.


      Her make up was finished by Emily at Ulta Salons.


      The Red bridesmaid dresses were purchased from David’s Bridal.


      Cellist , Greg Nelson, from Jason Price Music Services provided exquisite music for the ceremony and social hour.

      Rev. Dr. Franklin W. Nelson  of Talkpoints / Marriage Preparation Seminars married Jeff and Audie.


      One of the reasons Audie chose the location of Forepaugh’s was this beautiful chandelier in one of the rooms.  She just knew her Buttercream cake would fit perfectly below it.

      The flowers that brought more beauty to the rooms were created by Debbie Turner of Debbie Turner Originals.


      She and Jeff created their own invites.


      I can not wait to share more of the beautiful couple, and all of the details that make this location one of my favorites.  More to come!
