lasting impressions weddings is an award-winning minnesota wedding planning and design company

When Grace first called me about assisting her with her fall wedding, I was skeptical I would have enough time to be able to fully assist her planning a wedding in a few short months. But the more details that Grace told me about.. the more I realized I needed to be a part of this day.. and after all.. the wedding was at a Horse Farm… She pretty much had me at Horse Farm 🙂

Grace is a competitive rider that recently moved to Minnesota to be with her fiancé Chris. She quickly found a great stable for her hobby and created wonderful friendships with the owner of the farm and the rest is history (and one beautiful fall wedding!!)

Lafayette Club Wedding

Not all weddings day bring sunshine and great weather, and that is exactly what happened on Ashley and Tommy’s wedding day at Lafayette Club in June! But it would take a little bit more then rain to stop this group from celebrating! After a morning of heavy rain the skies cleared up just in time to have a beautiful outdoor ceremony on the lawn at Lafayette Club followed by photos on shore of Lake Minnetonka!

Semple Mansion in Minneapolis was made for fall and winter weddings! We have been working here for years and I am always stunned at the beauty of this historic Minneapolis Mansion! When Ally and Grant called me to plan their wedding we quickly narrowed down the venues that would work for their ceremony and reception and the vintage and classic feel of Semple Mansion was perfect for the couple.

Ally picked a color palette filled with Beautiful fall colors including burgundy, wine, gold and lots of nude floral accented by greens. It was a perfect compliment to the season as well as to the venue. The stationery really solidified the look and feel of the wedding with a unique dark tones.

Happy Just about One year anniversary Ally and Grant!

This wedding… Wow!!! Thats all I can say!!! I was so honored when Bailey and Matt hired us to help plan their June wedding. Not only did I feel an immmediate connection with Bailey , but I also loved how she trusted the vendors that she hired!!

At the first meeting, Bailey and Matt had a handful of inspiration photos of what they were looking for in terms of decor. Those inspiration photos then turned into sketches and ideas put on paper by Sadies Floral and PHOS Events.

Luckily for all of us, the sketch turned into a beautiful reality and on a Sunday afternoon in June Aria was transformed into a space filled with hanging chandeliers, hanging flowers, a hanging chuppa and lots and lots of beautiful white flowers and candles!!

There are few events that truly take my breath away after planning 800 weddings.. and this was one that did, not only because it was beautiful, but also because Bailey and Matt trusted the vision and never quesitoned all of the crazy sketches and mockups we made 🙂
