Jamie and Tim’s wedding was the perfect kick-off to fall!!! This Fall wedding color palette was full of burgandys, greens, Navy and all of the colors that make me want to cuddle up with a blanket and a book!! The only thing that did not feel like fall was the actual weather!!! This October wedding was the first snowfall of the year and we all had a big laugh! Jamie is from Texas and a large part of our wedding guests had traveled in from all over the world… and Minnesota greeted them with the first snowfall of the year!!!

Luckily Jamie and Tim embraced the weather and were able to snag a few beautiful photos in the fresh snow! Guests warmed up quickly during the reception with signature cocktails that featured the Minnesota Mule (In Honor of Tim), the Texas Mule (In honor of Jamie) and the Irish Mule (a nod to Jamie and Tim’s Norte Dame Roots 🙂 We tried to incorporate as many personal elements as we could into the celebration. Dance Floor props featuring numerous Norte Dame elements, Minnesota Apple Pies for the place cards and Personally embroidered napkins for each guest. YES, you heard me right!!! Jamie’s mother embroidered every guests initials on their own keepsake napkin!!

Semple Mansion is one of the oldest mansions in Minneapolis and one of the most classic wedding venues that we have in Minnesota. It was the perfect backdrop for Alexa and George’s wedding ceremony and reception! On June 1st, Semple Mansion was filled with love, laughter and one of the most thoughtful couples I have had the pleasure to work with!

I was hired by Alexa and her wonderful mom, Jules to assist in designing and coordinating the day of the wedding. We met numerous times to discuss floorplans, logistics and vendors. The one thing that always struck me about Alexa as her down to earth attitude and her kind personality. Her goal for the wedding was simply to marry George and celebrate with all of her loved ones.

I have always loved working with Geneoh photography, but this wedding in particular makes me appreciate his amazing photo journalism. He captures moments in such a striking way!

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!
