Dan & Jennifer Get Married at Holy Cross Catholic Church!!

Dan and Jennifer’s wedding day summed up in one word was Lovely.

The whole day reflected Jennifer’s classic taste with the small details (like fall inspired flowers and bridesmaids dresses to the best detail (the man she was choosing to marry ;) ).

Both parties got ready at the church in the morning before heading over to Nicollet Island Park in Minneapolis for First look. We were blessed with a beautiful Minnesota Fall Day with plenty of sunshine. The leaves had just changed a week or two before, so their first look was blanketed in a sea of yellow leaves. (Basically a fall wedding dream!!!) I am pretty sure the first word out of Dan’s mouth when he saw Jennifer for the first time was “ WOW.” (Just scroll through the photos and you will understand why!!)

One of my favorite parts of their portraits was where they read their wedding letters to each other. Holy Cannoli, it was something truly beautiful, genuine, and heart felt. Even now, thinking through those moments warms my heart.

We were later joined for portrait time by the wedding party at the park! The ladies were gifted scarves for a bridesmaids gift which they were able to use as shawls. After partying it up all over and being in ever Saturday runner way (#NotSorry) we headed back to Holy Cross Church for the Ceremony!

The details of this church were the best of Catholic Church architecture. The church looks so unassuming from the outside but so rich in art on the inside it is breath taking. It was a beautiful spot for Jennifer and Dan to get married in the eye’s of the Lord, family, and friends. The Lord was definitely glorified by their union.

After the I do’s, the wedding party took a quick portrait stop before heading over to cocktail hour at Sinclair on Grand for the reception. The space is a hollowed out brick warehouse perfect for throwing a party! Reception theme was book centerpieces. With food, Glam Dolls Donuts, the shoe game, and Dancing the night was complete with joy and laughter.

I greatly enjoyed capturing such a beautiful time with Dan and Jennifer. They are two of the sweetest people out there. I am so thankful they trusted me to capture such a great adventure in their lives! From surprise proposal to the wedding day, it has been a wonderful thing to be a part of.
