Elegant Stillwater Wedding at JX Event Center

Lauren and Ted’s wedding in Stillwater, Minnesota was elegant, romantic, and filled with joy from start to finish. All week, the forecast predicted rain, and the morning began gray. But just in time for portraits, the skies cleared into sunshine and blue skies. Their wedding day couldn’t have been more perfect.

The day began with Lauren sharing a sweet and emotional first look with her dad in the courtyard outside the venue.

We began couples portraits at the Stillwater Bridge, the same place where Ted proposed to Lauren. The riverfront backdrop was stunning, and it felt full circle to capture portraits at such a meaningful location. From then on, smiles never left the couple’s faces. Lauren and Ted were radiant together, always looking at one another with joy. Their wedding party matched their energy—groomsmen in black ties and bridesmaids in black dresses carrying calla lilies bouquets. Lauren’s bouquet of calla lilies and orchids was delicate, sophisticated, and the perfect reflection of her elegant style.

Their ceremony at Trinity Lutheran Church was heartfelt, just up the hill from JX Event Center. JX, a classic Stillwater brick building with soaring ceilings and romantic chandeliers, provided the perfect spot for their reception. Tables were decorated with green floral linens, calla lilies, and candlelight. Every detail gave off timeless, romantic vibes.

During speeches, the recurring theme was gratitude and admiration. Family and friends shared how Lauren and Ted love each other with intention, and how their relationship has made everyone around them better.

The celebration ended on a high note as the Bluewater Kings Band kept the dance floor full all night long. From beginning to end, Lauren and Ted’s wedding was a joyful, elegant, and classic Stillwater celebration to add to their love story.

Please join me in congratulating this amazing couple and enjoying their lovely wedding day below!

Camrose Hill Wedding Photography | Abby & Curitis | Minneapolis Wedding Photographer

This Camrose Hill Wedding was a Jessica Smith Photography Wedding that I had the pleasure to second shoot for! On the back roads of Stillwater, Minnesota the fall day was meet with an unseasonably hot weather that you would expect in Mid July. To counter the heat everyone was downing water to stay hydrated which is important on any wedding day! Curtis and Abby were getting married at the same Minnesota Barn Wedding Venue that Abby's older sister had gotten married at years before. They made it their own with their fur baby Marshall who was in a schnazzy bow tie and just excited to be a part of his parents day! Abby was in a classic sweetheart lace with her hubby to be grey suited up with a bright pink tie. They said the "Heck Yes" & I do under a beautiful flower cascaded arch in a little grass grove.
