New London Wedding Photography | Amber & Nick | Spicer Wedding Photographer

Amber & Nick get married at Peace Lutheran Church in New London!

Burning of the day at a balmy 90 degrees in Minnesota Amber got ready at her childhood home with her mama and sister.

Tippy the cat was brave enough to join us and for some odd reason kept going after the bottom of her dress so Amber's mom was standing guard. After putting on her dress we headed to the first look just a couple miles from the church. Nick got to see his bride for the first time. The first look was all smiles and hugs. We then headed to the church for portraits with the wedding party outside in the shade of one of the church's trees.
One of Amber's favorite parts of the day was the ceremony. They had their pastor start their day with the traditional vows from one of the great classics. "MAWAGE! MAWAGE IS WAT BWINGS US TOWGETHER TOWDAY". Amber and Nick absolutely loved it as they cracked up through the whole intro to their ceremony. After the Princess Bride quotes were over, the Officiant wanted the audience to know that was specially requested by the bride and groom.
It is a beautiful thing when God brings two people together in marriage. It was a privilege to witness these two say "yesh" and become husband and wife!

After the ceremony everyone headed over to Oneils for the reception! A cute space, Amber and Nick decorated with greenery and tiered candles. They served their guests O'Neals' pizza (which was delicious).
During Toasts, both the Best Man & Maid of Honor expressed how their friend had found the perfect partner. It ended with Amber saying a heartfelt thank you and laying a big kiss on her new husband. He didn't seem to mind. (Nick would later say this was one of his favorite moments of the day).
Their first dance felt so intimate as they swayed together surrounded by their friends and family.
We ended the night with some intimate portraits at Pirrotta Park right behind the venue.
Please enjoy Amber & Nick's wedding day.

Prestwick Golf Course Wedding Photography | Chase & Danae | Woodbury Wedding Photographer

A Minnesota celebration with Chase & Danae at Prestwick Golf Course!

Spring has sprung here in Minnesota and the trees are starting to be covered in green once more! This day was initially planned to take place last October, after this bride and groom’s Mexico ceremony with Danae’s side of the family. Like many others, due to covid, everything had a little shake up. Their Minnesota Reception ended up coming first in the new plans of events!
Chase’s mom Anita planned this so all Chase’s family and friends could enjoy celebrating their marriage at Prestwick Golf Course in Woodbury, MN. Chase & Danae had a brief ceremony so both sets of parents could enjoy this time together. Everyone on the day of was just happy to be together celebrating these two. It made the day much more fun to be a part of when everyone is ready to party!
Danae looked dynamite in her wedding dress she chose for the MN Celebration. And Chase looked amazingly dapper in his three piece brown suit. They complimented each other well in spirit and joy for their day.
One of my favorite moments of the day came during the toasts. Chase’s dad was his best man; Jeff’s speech was funny and well thought out. He said one line in English and the same line repeated in Spanish for Danae’s side of the family to be able to fully enjoy the speech. In the middle of his speech the whole room agreed - “Covid Sucks.”
They finished the night greeting friends and family and partying it up on the dance floor.
Please enjoy some of their wedding photos from their Minnesota Celebration!

Lebanon Hills Wedding Photography | Christy & Micheal | Eagan Wedding Photographer

Christy & Micheal's Minnesota Winter Wedding at First Baptist Church

Christy and Micheal wedding day started off a foggy morning at 17 degrees. Knowing we were adventuring outside Christy had her car packed with snow boots, hardwarmes, and blankets. She came prepared! She got ready with her sisters and friends in one of First Baptists upstairs classrooms. Christy fit into her dress like a glove, looking like it had been made for her.

She did a first look with her father in the Johnson chapel. Her dad just soaked her in and told her how proud he was of her. It was one of my favorite moments of their day.

Micheal went ahead of us to their own first look at Lebanon Hills Regional Park. Their spot for the first look is one of Christy’s favorite spots in her area that she would explore from time to time. The time with them at Lebanon was so full of joy and excitement; it just made the day very special. By mid afternoon the fog had rolled away and God gave us some beautiful sun shining through the trees just in time for wedding party portraits.

We headed back to the church to get married!!

Christy decorated the church aisle with large lanterns with flowers to guide their way up the aisle. She walked up the aisle barefoot her arm linked with her fathers. They said traditional vows because it was always something Christy had loved growing up.

A kiss sealed the deal and now they are a new Mrs & Mr. ! One of my favorite highlights of the day was right after they walked back up the aisle, Micheal and Christy slipped into a side room to take a private moment to hug and just reflect on what just took place. It was so sweet to witness.
Since we are in the middle of a pandemic, Christy and Micheal had to put off a big reception for another date. They did have a intimate reception with their core family to finish our the night!

I hope you enjoy their photos from their winter wedding.
