Timelines are stressful and couples planning weddings are often afraid they are leaving things out. The truth is, that’s rare.

Sometimes you go to work, spill coffee on your shirt, read your book instead of eating your lunch, and basically count down the seconds until you can blow that popsicle stand…and other times…you see the love of your life from across the room and fall head over heels.

Their travel themed wedding was absolutely stunning and I was so […]

Ashton and Tom had been in each other’s orbit for a while (Ashton’s sister is married to Tom’s brother-adorable right?!) but the stars never quite aligned, until all of […]
It’s that time of year, brides are wrapping up the final details for their weddings. This is when I get more questions and see more comments on good ol’ Facebook about wedding favors. My answer to these inquires is always in the form of a question, or rather two questions: Does your budget allow you […]
Rebecca and Clinton’s love story is a classic. Country girl meets city boy. They fall in love. The new Mr. and Mrs. held their ceremony at Minneopa State Park on a perfect July day, and by that I mean we weren’t all sweltering in 100+ degree temps, there was a light breeze, and NO MOSQUITOS…that […]
