Kicking off Christmas week with a beautiful August wedding that I was lucky enough to help coordinate with Maggie and Troy. Maggie contacted me around 18 months before her wedding and I was amazed that when she hired me she already hired quite a few of her vendors.. she was very organized and during the planning process I realized why. Troy plays in the NHL and Maggie and Troy are constantly traveling for games and they were so smart to get so much done early…so that when they were home the few times during the year we could nail down all of the other pieces!!! A great group of vendors and a wonderful and trusting couple turned into a beautiful wedding at the classic Basilica of St. Mary and the newly renovated Loews Hotel!!
Merry Christmas Maggie and Troy! I hope that you have a good and relaxing first Christmas as a Mr. and Mrs!!

Check out this beautiful wedding we had the pleasure of working on this past Saturday!! Merky and Matt were one of the sweetest couples and being apart of their beautiful Semple Mansion Fall Wedding was such a gift!! Photos by the incredible Janelle Elise Photography!!
It was a perfect Spring day when Katie and Luke tied the knot at Our Lady of Grace and then partied the night away at The Minikahda Club !!! This was one of the first weddings of the year and it was such a good way to start the year off right!! Katie was very Type A (I love that..and can relate!!) and my goal is that she would not have to think about a thing on the day and she would be able to let go and just enjoy herself.. and I think that it worked 🙂
Beautiful whites and greens accented the new Minikahda Club Wallpaper and decor perfectly and was the perfect way to start off spring!! My favorite part of their wedding was probably the late night snacks from McDonalds.. when I went to pick up 100 cheeseburgers and fries I got lots of strange looks from other McDonalds customers and I received a lot of rave reviews from guests!!
Happy Holidays Katie and Luke! And Thank you to the VERY talented Sewell Photography for these great photos!!!!!

Its always hard for me to pair down images on my computer.. It am a wedding photo hoarder.. even though I know I only need to keep a handful from each wedding to show details, remember my couples and use for blog images.. I somehow bog down every computer with 100-200 saved photos from every wedding that I can never part with.. and this wedding is no different!!!
Lindsay and John were married at the Landmark Center on a chilly fall day! I started to assist Lindsay with her wedding planning a year before the big day since she lived in Boston and was planning everything remotely! She had a lot of fun ideas that she wanted to tie into the decor along with a lot of personalized elements from her and John’s relationship. Guests signed a framed collage of all of their “ticket stubs” since they are avid sports and theater fans. Hockey pucks doubled as the placards since they met while working for the Boston Bruins Sales team (check out their fun bling from when the Bruins won the Stanley Cup!!) And tables were named after different streets… and these were displayed on mini street signs! My favorite element was however the beautiful flower wall that was given to Lindsay from the Ralph Lauren store and she shipped it all back to MN to use as a ceremony backdrop!!!
You will notice that Lindsay and John have a smile that is contagious and I am sure they are going to be laughing for many, many years to come!!
Congratulations!!!

Anjali and Benjamin’s wedding took place on a beautiful July day at the Semple Mansion in Minneapolis! The day was full of love, tradition and stunning decor!! I first met Anjali right after she booked Semple Mansion for her wedding and she needed help planning the rest of the event because she lived in Chicago and was busy going to Medical School… all while Benjamin was in Wisconsin also going to school.. so their planning trips back to town were not only a time for them to meet with me.. but also a time for them to get to see each other!!!
It was so much fun getting to know both of you and getting to be a part of your special day!!! Wishing you lots of love and happiness.. and good luck on your upcoming tests 🙂
