This blog features a gorgeous Central Minnesota wedding at Crooked Willow. Crooked Willow is a renovated farmstead turned into a premier wedding venue in Osakis. Abby and Logan embraced the rainy day and enjoyed outdoor photos with umbrellas in hand. But also took advantage of the fun indoor scenery Crooked Willow provides. They started their...
This engagement session turned into a family adventure session in Yosemite National Park. When Kiani and James asked if their girls could tag along, I of course said, YES!! After all, when you marry someone with children you are not just promising a future with that one person, you are promising to honor a future...
Bethany and Ryan decided an adventurous Micro Wedding in northern Minnesota was the perfect fit for them. They both love Jay Cooke State Park so they found an adorable cabin nearby, Juliane James Place. It is tucked away in the woods in the countryside of Finlayson and suitable to host micro-weddings. I would love to...
Holly and Tom’s destination wedding at Barcelo Maya Palace in Riviera Maya, Mexico was one for the books! They kept it intimate with just 28 of their closest friends and family members. Even though it was small, this group knew how to party! The day started off with a relaxing morning at the spa, followed...
Our wedding day was truly magical, but the most cherished part was our intimate ceremony at the chapel located on the property of Grand View Lodge. Faith has always been the cornerstone of our relationship, and we wanted our ceremony to reflect that. Surrounded by the people who mean the most to us, we experienced...
Casi and Nathan decided a simple winter elopement at a small cabin on a lake in St. Croix Falls, Wisconsin was the perfect fit for them. They were joined only by their adorable pups, and us lucky few vendors from the Elope West team. It was a very brisk January day, but luckily their enduring love, warm...
Jordan and Shanigne hosted an intimate wedding celebration at Tenbrink Orchards December 14, 2024. They truly were more excited about the marriage than “the big wedding” so they kept it small and family-focused. Everyone who attended meant a great deal to them and it showed. A DESTINATION WEDDING AT TENBRINK ORCHARDS Jordan’s mom Vanessa and...
This is the sweetest winter date idea for outdoorsy couples. Nikki and Trent are happy newlyweds, but they know the importance of “keeping the flame alive”. You’ll understand that pun when you scroll through their story;) They both love nature, quiet mornings, a good cup of coffee and quality time with one another. We headed...
Callie and Nathan are old souls with simple values so they chose to have a small outdoorsy wedding close to home in Little Falls, Minnesota. When their original plans of hosting a small wedding at their Grandparents farm fell threw, I jumped at the chance to finally plan a woodsy elopement just a mile from...
Melissa and Michael hosted the most intimate and beautiful Fall wedding at Stonewall Farms in Willmar, Minnesota. There wasn’t a set of dry eyes as they exchanged the most heartfelt vows ever heard in the 22 years of me documenting weddings. This particular wedding story is one of hardship, loss, and second chance love. It...
