Priya and Nathan’s Wedding at The Loft at Studio J

City: Stillwater, MN Venue:

Loft Studio J Stillwater wedding.

Priya and Nathan met for the first time in their sophomore year of college. Priya arrived early and perched herself on an open lab bench alone. Nathan came in late, saw an open seat next to her, and sat down. After a few unsuccessful attempts at asking her out, Nathan finally got the answer he was hoping for. Their first date was at a Thai restaurant in Uptown, which was followed by the couple watching the movie, “Up,” and since this was where their love story officially started, it was, literally, all up from there.

Nathan proposed on a weekend family visit to Iowa. They were about to go to bed when Nathan asked if Priya would like to watch “Up.” She excitedly agreed and opened the DVD case to find a ring positioned where the movie should have been. It was a beautiful, touching surprise.

The couple decided to tie the knot at The Loft at Studio J in Stillwater, MN. It was a beautiful, late fall day to say, “I do,” on. Priya sported a gorgeous dress and a stunning smile, and Nathan was looking as sharp as ever. It was a beautiful testament to love, and I was happy to be a part of it.

Travis and Amanda’s Wedding Pics

City: Stillwater, MN Venue:

You could say there were fireworks from the first moment Amanda and Travis met. It was the Fourth of July at the cabin and Amanda’s friends didn’t trust her with the fireworks. Amanda and Travis had just met and he thought it would be a good idea to let the cute girl light them anyways— the worst that could happen is that he would score some brownie points. Amanda nearly lit her hair on fire!

Five years later Travis, like a gentlemen, asked permission to marry Amanda and had bigs plans for a romantic evening. He asked if she wanted anything special for dinner but Amanda thought it was just another Friday night and wanted pizza rolls. Travis obliged and while waiting for those pizza rolls he got down on one knee to present his Great Grandmother’s ring.

Their wedding at the Stillwater Carnegie Library was on the rooftop terrace overlooking the Saint Croix River— the perfect location for a summer celebrations. Amanda and Travis got married on the longest day of the year! During the dance I overheard a call from the grouchy neighbors complaining about the music. Oops! When you’re in love you just do care who hears it and besides it wasn’t even dark yet— they should probably go bake some bake some pizza rolls of their own.
