Beth and Jake met by chance on a night out in downtown Minneapolis. When they saw each other again at a hockey tournament a few months later they decided to meet for dinner and have been in each other’s lives ever since.
They were on vacation in Mexico when Jake proposed. It was their first night on the beach and Beth was thrilled when he got down on one knee and asked her to marry him. The beautiful tanzanite ring that Jake offered her he bought years before while they were at Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. He knew even then that someday Beth would be his wife.
The couple knew right away when and where the ceremony would take place. In memory of their late fathers, July 25th at Glensheen Mansion were the day and venue that would honor their memories best. What a beautiful way to include those who could only attend in spirit.
The couple enjoyed beautiful weather in an idyllic setting near Lake Superior during their special day. They celebrated not only their union but also the love and support they had from all their family and friends. Thank you for having me be a part of your celebration.
Something old, something new, and the perfect shoes in blue.

The first look was perfect! Beth and Jake embraced the moment to take in all of the excitement the day was to bring.
The weather was exceptional as the happy couple enjoyed some time by the water.
Glensheen made a wonderful background for the wedding party.
There’s a time to cry, a time to kiss, and a time to selfie!
All set to celebrate. S’mores anyone?
Taking some time to just enjoy each other’s company on the shore of Lake Superior.
