Jacob and Kimberly’s Larsmont Cottages Wedding

City: Two Harbors, MN Venue:

Jacob and Kimberly’s didn’t mind the wet and foggy weather at their wedding and even embraced it. If rain on your wedding day is good luck, then these two are set for a long time. They had planned an outdoor ceremony at Larsmont Cottages on Lake Superior, and these two rolled with the punches when we forced indoors. Before the final decision was made to move inside, I asked Kimberly if they still wanted to do her first look at Stoney Point and she boldly replied– “We’ve got umbrellas.” YES! That’s the attitude that makes for great photos!

Despite the rain, their day was filled with love and laughter, and plenty of unique details including a traditional Danish wedding cake called a Kransekage made by Jacob’s grandmother, and a ring box made Kimberly’s mom. In the end, it’s the little details, and the love shared between two people and two families that make the day, not the weather.

Thank you two for sharing your wet and wonderful day with us!

Sam and Ashley’s Summer Garden Wedding

City: Cloquet, MN Venue:

Sam and Ashley met on Tinder and have been together since the summer of 2015. After a few months of long distance dating, Sam was offered an opportunity in California to join a new music technology startup in the initial stage. Rather than breaking things off with Ashley, he suggested she take a road trip with him to Cali, “just for fun.” Two weeks later, their car was packed and ready to go and after a romantic trip to the grand canyon, they both knew they were going to spend the rest of their lives together.

Their wedding took place at Sam’s parents’ cabin outside of Cloquet, MN. It was a beautiful day celebrating the love these two have for each other making it clear to see that they were always #meanttobeMcKINNEY.

Beau and Kimmylea’s Backyard Tent Wedding

City: Solon Springs, WI Venue:

After meeting at a shooting range, Kimmylea and Beau quickly fell for each other. They came together for their family-oriented backyard tent wedding this summer, which was held on a gorgeous piece of property in Northern Wisconsin that Beau’s parents’ own. It was a casual country ceremony in the Northwoods, complete with iced tea and cowboy boots, and everyone there was happy to watch the two families collide. The day itself was beautiful, with a trip to Amnicon Falls for the first look and surprise fireworks to end the night included. Congratulations Kimmylea and Beau and thanks for letting me be a part of your special day!
