Crossroads Church, Cottage Grove, Minnesota • July 11, 2008

I have been looking forward to their wedding since their awesome engagement session. It certainly was a beautiful wedding, and what I love most about Gretchen and Pat’s wedding is that while they certainly had a fabulous day filled with laughters and emotions, it was also about the people they loved and were celebrating with. It was a celebration of love.




Right after the ceremony, the newly weds stole a private moment. I love this.

We then boarded the limousine and headed to the bar for some celebration time.



Pat’s mom made this amazingly beautiful cake.



Bouquet toss is always fun. : )

Gretchen and Pat, thank you for inviting me to share such a special day with you! The two of you have blessed me more than you may know, and I hope you continue to improve each other’s lives every day!

warmly,

Simple. Classic. Real.
That’s how I would describe this amazing wedding.
Even though I hadn’t actually met the bride and groom before the wedding, Rebecca and Shane charmed me with their warm and appreciative hearts.



Rebecca and Shane’s traditional Jewish wedding is full of meaningful rituals, from signing of the ketubah, to the seven circles, to breaking of the glass — they are all so amazing, individually and collectively.


The gorgeous landscapes at the arboretum makes it one of the most beautiful outdoor wedding venue.




The new mr. and mrs.!



We had some time for a few portraits.




Here’s more of Rebecca and Shane’s awesome wedding.

You are both destined for great things and I’m honored our paths cross! Rebecca and Shane, I think the world of you both and I wish you nothing but love, joy and happiness together!

Mazel Tov!

warmly,
