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

Here is our 2017 Digital Magazine Portfolio of some of our favorite and classic Minnesota Weddings from the past few years!!

 

Haley and Matt’s Landmark Center Wedding was beautiful, fun and filled with FOOD!!!

I think that most people would think that Matt would have been the mastermind behind ALL OF THE FOOD at the wedding since he is a professional football player.. but spend 10 minutes with Haley and you will realize that behind this beautiful, petite, former Miss Minnesota there is a girl that is passionate about her sweets and taking care of her guests!!

From the beginning of the wedding planning process Haley and Matt wanted to make sure that their guests were treated to a fantastic experience when coming to their wedding. They wanted to showcase some of St.Paul’s best venues including The Saint Paul Hotel, Landmark Center and J Hill Library .

The ceremony and cocktail hour were at JJ Hill Library and then guests made their way over to the stunning Landmark Center where Apres and Avant Decor, Instant Request and Sadie’s Couture Flowers and Events transformed the space with draping and 8ft centerpieces to make the space feel cozy and intimate!!

Now lets get to the food!! We started the cocktail hour with FUN and non traditional appetizers including milk and cookies, donut holes, mini burgers and grilled cheese and many more!! After an hour of drinking and indulging on some of the guests favorite snacks guests were welcomed into Landmark Center with a full set up of food stations including a burger station, carving station, chinese and pasta station! And just when guests thought they could not eat anymore.. We served wedding cake from Sweet Retreat, A Candy Bar, A Smores Bar and Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream for late night snack!!!!

As you can tell.. this day was filled with the best vendors in Minnesota and Haley and Matt were the sweetest couple!! I feel very fortunate to have been involved in their picture perfect wedding day!!!

I have to say.. this is one of my favorite weddings.. ever! Nikki and Travis were such a joy to work with and I just loved how much Nikki and her amazing mom, Jane trusted us throughout the whole process!! Nikki and I have very similar taste when it comes to decor, so I really got to plan my dream wedding… again 🙂 Nikki was a STUNNER in a Dress from l’atelier Couture and the backdrop of the Landmark Center was perfect for the white and silver decor!

I can not thank the vendors listed below enough… thank you for all of your work making Nikki and Travis’s dream wedding come true! And make sure you check out the Spring/Summer Issue of the Knot for a feature of their day!! Thanks to Graddy Photography for the wonderful images!!
