Private Home Ceremony. Lake of the Isles. Minneapolis.


 
Laura + Eric + Grayson

Let's make it official, in our own way. 
The plan is: there is no plan!
 They wanted children present.  
 The aisle is from the kitchen to the living room!
A niece as flower girl and 
uh oh, the ring bearer keeps going the wrong direction.
So much laughter. 
When it was time for the vows, the treasured words were carefully, tearfully said.
A simple but profound moment.  Remembered forever.



Private Home Ceremony. St. Louis Park.



David + Mary Beth

They have jumped out of planes together.  
However, this leap they take into the unknown 
for the sake of a deeper and wider life together.
I received a recent update: they have a son.
His name is Declan. 
It must be marvelous to be a child in their world.
Happily ever after!



Private Home Ceremony. Chanhassen.



Chandra + Kevin

Their vision was to be married in the beautifully tended family garden.
 The groom and his father built the arbor especially for the wedding.
The weather was perfect.
Uncle read a touching poem.
Beautiful niece sang a sweet love song.
Vows exchanged.  Equal partners sealed with a kiss. 
This was their style.  Simple and elegant.




Private Home Ceremony. Eagan.


 
Jody + Randy

I officiated when her mother married her longtime companion.
She called and asked if I would officiate as her son married his sweetheart. Yes!
  When she called the 3rd time it was because she had found love herself.
In the garden, at their home.
Lots of laughter and a few tears.
It is good to celebrate their whole family together in caring and in love.


Private Home Ceremony. Lowry Hill.



Chris + Dasha

On a beautiful summer day they arrived by bicycle!
The bride forgot her bouquet. Flowers were picked from a neighbor's garden.
Sharing life together.
It was simply what they wanted.  
Friends gathered. Delicious food and wedding cake followed.
Extraordinary.  Personal.  Mazel tov! 


Destination Ceremony. Lutsen Lodge Resort.



Peter + Michelle + Alex

The natural beauty and atmosphere of Lutsen Lodge
suited their personalities.  
Being outdoors was an experience they all enjoyed.
Exciting to hear water rushing under the bridge.
Hang on tight to those rings!
So happy together.
Gorgeous. Unforgettable.


Destination Ceremony. W Hotel. Downtown Minneapolis.



Christiaan + Nicole

This stylish couple chose the perfect spot.
The 27th floor of the W Hotel in the Foshay Library with stunning views of the city.
An intimate gathering of friends and family.
The exchange of vows is the big moment.
Dazzling.  Beautiful.  Love.
