GRATEFUL. That is the word that comes to mind when we think of Andrea and Ryan’s wedding. We are SO GRATEFUL that they gave us the honor of being a part of their day. We are SO GRATEFUL that they were just as excited about their pictures as we were! We are SO GRATEFUL for the love that they share. We are SO GRATEFUL for the many family members and friends that came out in the crazy Minnesota weather to support them on their wedding day. And selfishly, we are SO GRATEFUL that early in the day, God gave us “warmer” weather that allowed for outdoor pictures (our favorite) of not only the bride and groom, but also the wedding party!
Andrea and Ryan, we hope you enjoy this “little” peek at your special day! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
BEAUTIFUL BLING!!!
Village Flowers does it again! Another beautiful winter bouquet! Thanks, Perry!
A special gift from the groom!
That smile!
Love this one!
GORGEOUS!!!!
A very handsome and slightly chilly groom!
Love this backdrop for the “first look”!
A beautiful black and white!
Another shot we LOVE!
Is that a girl in love or what?!
Yes, it was COLD, and yet this is what we saw all day!
One of our favorite shots . . . but we could not decide if we liked it better in color . . .
. . . or black and white?
How sweet is this?!
Andrea and Ryan, we just LOVE the joy in this shot!
A stunning bride with her amazing ‘maids!
Having fun in spite of the cold!
What an elegant bunch of ladies!
LOVE THIS SHOT!
The FANTASTIC bridal party!
Love this!
How can this not make you smile? Princess for the day!
Here she comes, Ryan!
What a lovely setting for a wedding!
Being a princess is hard work! 🙂
Andrea had a special surprise for Ryan as they were pronounced Mr. and Mrs.! A bagpiper was hidden in the balcony!
We loved the reaction! So sweet!
On to the reception!
We were a little partial to the guest book pictures! 🙂
Yum!
The reception hall at the Courtyard was decorated to the fullest! Incredible! The bride’s aunt/godmother put her heart into making the hall very special for all!
You know how Jason loves his cake/cupcakes! 🙂 We can’t have just one pic!
Back outside for some fun pics with the beautiful Christmas lights!
Love this!!
There’s that infectious smile again!
And AGAIN!! 😉
This is one of our favorites!
Back to the reception hall . . . this was Andrea’s reaction to her aunt’s hard work! 🙂
Ryan’s Grandpa and Grandma celebrated their 67th wedding anniversary this fall! Only fitting that we “caught” them kissing!
The best man’s speech was hilarious! 🙂
Amanda seemed to enjoy it the most! 😉
The bride’s sisters also had a great time with their speeches!
Someday . . .
Andrea and Ryan truly deserve a medal or two for these next few shots! The MN blizzard had completely moved in by this point, 20+ MPH winds and all! We are so GRATEFUL that they trusted us enough to stand out in the cold!
And we will end with this dreamy shot! LOVE it!
