Becca and Alex’s Stillwater loft wedding let the Liftbridge shine in November.
Several years ago, the Stillwater Liftbridge was converted from a car crossing to a bike and pedestrian bridge over the St Croix river. What used to be an impossibly busy tangle of traffic has now become the architectural showstopper it was always hiding.
Still, when you get married in Minnesota in November, it always means any time outside will be limited. Becca and Alex stepped out of their reception for a little stroll along the waterfront for some time together before returning to the warmth of their celebration!
Venue: Loft at Studio J
Stillwater Photo Guide
Stillwater is a gem of a little city on the river. Besides being in Stillwater for weddings and portraits, I’ve documented food and restaurants in the area with my food-writer husband (hi, Jim!) for years. It has sometimes been a favorite staycation destination, a cozy winter get away, or a nice stop along the river.
I have put together some of my recommendations for the best photo locations in Stillwater as well as a list of the local hotels and some favorite restaurants in the area. If you want to read more about my Stillwater photography location guide, you can see it here:
