This St Paul College Club Wedding is exactly what the mansions on Summit Avenue were built for – Celebrating in the ballroom, dinning in the salons.

What if the adventure of being in winter is part of your elopement story? Lucy and David brought along two very accommodating witnesses for an adventurous trek through the snow and into their wedding day.
I’m always psyched when a couple tells me they are planning their wedding at Solar Arts in NE Minneapolis because I know that we definitely share two things in common: we love food, and we value how your guests celebrate with you! So I was thrilled to meet with Megan and James for a beer on the first floor of Solar Arts at Indeed Brewing (their wooden soul barrel aged program remains a gem of brewing) to discuss their wedding plans. And that is also where we stopped for a drink right after their ceremony on the 3rd floor of…
I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape. Something waits beneath it; the whole story doesn’t show. – Andrew Wyeth Before I gush about Laura and Eric’s Aster Cafe Wedding in Winter I think I should make it clear – the temperature outside was around zero. I think that should be said before anything else. In winter, we agree to share our burden: we remove our jackets, and scarves, and hats. And we agree, for this time, to be warm together. To find a corner of this bleak cold, sometimes beautiful and sometimes dangerous…
Ashley and Brandon’s Semple mansion wedding was a warm celebration away from a cold December day. Their guests entered the mansion right into the intimate ceremony, and then were rewarded with a wine cellar cocktail hour before adjourning to the ballroom for dinner. From photos with their (adorable!) pup Kimchi to their elegant friend-led ceremony and some hilarious toasts, the night was full of laughter and joy. I particularly enjoyed their eclectic group of friends, many with theatrical backgrounds, who made the speeches and the dancing and the general banter so lively throughout the evening. It is clear that Ashley…
In lieu of telling you about Sarah and Steven’s wedding, I’ll let them tell you about their experience working with me for their St Paul Hotel Winter Wedding. I think its safe to say her photos speak for themselves. They are stunning, and anyone would be thrilled to have them hanging on their wall. But what makes Becca so great is that she is just a joy to be around. I didn’t meet with any other photographers after meeting Becca because I knew I needed her at my wedding. My husband and I are not the most photogenic people, and taking…
I am not generally a “gushing over the details” type of person about weddings, which can be surprising in a wedding photographer. Yes, decorations and details are an important part of the storytelling of the totality of a wedding (and yes, they are generally very pretty); but decor does not a happy wedding make. I love happy weddings, and happy people, and those people choose the right details that express a who they are. So, I present to you Anne and Jeremy’s wedding – a wedding that was full of many happy and laughing people, a couple that wanted both a pre-wedding elopement and a post-wedding…
If music be the food of love, play on – Susan + Levi’s wedding at Loring Pasta Bar and Varsity Theater.
