Maggie and Matt... Part 2

There were so many wonderful details in Maggie and Matt’s Wedding Day that I had to create a Part 2 Blog Post, if you missed Part One please take a look for photos of the stunning couple and ceremony details! Maggie and Matt transformed the beautiful Nicollet Island Pavillion with their classic and elegant wedding theme. Navy Table clothes added a pop of color on a very “clean” color pallette. The combination of white roses and “bling” was the perfect amount of sparkle for the space! Maggie bought blankets to be scattered on the patio when guests got cold on the October evening and the cocktail napkins added a bit of fun and flare to the event!
One of my favorite surprises at the wedding was the late night snack - Matt and Maggie had told me that they loved Dairy Queen Blizzards. So we were able to have late night blizzards delivered at 10pm for a nice sweet surprise!

Maggie and Matt - Part One..

Let me first start by saying, there was NO way I could get all of my favorite images into one post. So I will be following up with all of the wonderful decor photos in the next few days. I ADORE Maggie and Matt! They were wonderful to work with and they were made for each other! I was lucky enough to be referred to Maggie and Matt from one of my favorite couples of 2010.. Megan and Ben, so when I got the email from Maggie I was very excited! Maggie knew exactly what she wanted and had a great vision from the beginning. She brought her touches of great taste into every aspect of the wedding... including her wonderful wedding dress!! It was enjoyable helping her and Matt through through the planning process and I was excited to hear that a few of their photos are being featured in the new Minnesota Bride!!

Michelle and John - September 26

Michelle and John’s wedding was not only a fun one for me to plan.. but a personal one too. Michelle is my sister in law (Andy’s Sister). John and her were together for many years before the engagement and we were all very happy to have him “officially” join the family. They were engaged last December while Michelle was doing an internship in Montana... so last Christmas break for her she came back and we looked at reception sites! It was so much fun working with someone so close to me. The day of course was wonderful, we had fantastic weather and everything turned out great. Thanks to my fantastic assistant Meghan I was really able to sit back and enjoy the time with family!
