Candace and Keith: Details

The details of a wedding day can go missed by the bride and groom as the day wisps away from them.  As photographers, it is our job to be another pair of eyes for the couple to come back to after the day is gone.  I was thrilled to have wonderful details to shoot and vendors to work with.

Debbie Turner Originals graced us with her floral creativity both with the bouquets, boutonniere,  and at the Club.

Candace’s dress and veil were a Pricilla of Boston find.

Her bracelet and hair piece were from the funky and fun Che Bella, and the invites were created by Amy Zaroff Events and Design.

The groomsmen sported Savvi Formalwear

The girls hair and make up was done by Rocco Altobelli’s Salon in Edina.  (Candace you are stunning!)

Candace’s necklace and earrings were a gift from her new in-laws purchased from Hudson Jewelers in St. Louis and they were so beautiful on her!

These super, uber fun bridesmaids that kept me laughing all day were dressed in Priscilla of Boston dresses and Target jewelry.

Christ Presbyterian Church in Edina held the ceremony, and it was wonderful.


Apres decorated Edina Country Club with its finest, making the room colorful and fun!

Candace and her mother created some of their own details; socks for dancing in and place cards!

The cakes of the evening were created by Queen of Cakes.

And the grooms cake, very appropriate for the occasion as Candace and Keith met at a rival football tailgating party…

And my favorite part of the day… A candy bar created by Mary Hamilton.

More eye candy to come tomorrow of the beautiful couple!

      Zach and Jen; Wayzata Country Club wedding

      Who knew working at Macy’s could score you a spouse?

      Jen and Zach met while they were working and a relationship blossomed from there.  I was fortunate to meet them last winter and knew when I met them that they were perfect for each other.  The day of their wedding I was even more convinced.  Their love emanated toward one another and they were so blessed with beautiful September day to celebrate their marriage.

      The dance was an important part of their day and they wanted me there to document it!  I was so happy that I was able to stay and catch some great expressions. Jen and Zach, it was such a pleasure working with you.  Best wishes as you look into your future together!

        Nice work, Karen! Also, I love the necklaces that the bridesmaids wore. Pretty!

      Zach and Jen- Details of a Minneapolis wedding

      Fall weddings are my favorite.  Zach and Jen’s was so wonderful and elegant.  I  loved all the details that made their day happen perfectly and showed off their personalities.  Here are some of the vendors that I worked with that day and I would highly recommend.  More photos of the wedding day to come tomorrow!

      Jen’s dress was a beautiful Priscilla of Boston dress, it was so beautiful on her and her bright purple heels were Anne Klein.

      Zach and his groomsmen were sporting Savvi attire.

      All of Jen’s flowers were amazing and done by Floreal.

      Check out these awesome necklace by J-Crew!  They accented the purple Macy’s Bridal bridesmaid dresses fantastically!

      The invites, place cards, programs, and table names were done by Letter Perfect.


      The Jewelry that Jen chose was Priscilla of Boston and their rings were designed by Thomas Joseph and Sons.

      The ceremony was held at Wayzata Community Church and the reception was Wayzata Country Club, both stunning places for photos.

      Decor at the Club was Richfield Floral


      Dessert table and cake were served by Country Cake Cupboard, and it was fabulous!

      The Traveling Photobooth showed up with fun while Jason and the G-men jazzed us and Instant Request got the party started!


      It was such a great day, I can not wait to share more!

        Tyler and Lisa: Minneapolis wedding

        They met in a bowling alley.  Both had mutual friends who were meeting up for the evening and brought them with.  She was beautiful, and he was hilariously funny.  They clicked right away.  And that was the start of a wonderful relationship.

        The entire day I felt like I was around old friends.  They both made me feel extremely welcome and I was able to see more into their personalities as the day progressed.   At their engagement shoot, they appeared in Duke apparel and Lisa explained to me that Tyler was a fanatic.  I didn’t really know to the extent until she pulled out the Duke garter on her wedding day that she had specially made for him.   The rest of the day brought forth joy and tears.  I was so thankful to be a part of it.

        The first is my angle, and the second is Elena’s.

        It was a privilege and honor to be able to capture your day for you Tyler and Lisa.  I wish you both the best.
