jill + matt {wedding day}

date : july 16, 2010
ceremony and reception : private residence, isle, minnesota

Sit tight, because this is a record breaking wedding blog post.
This post contains three of my brides, past and presents, all so amazingly talented. My, being Jill’s best friend, paired with her sister Ngoc, worked magic and helped put together this enchanted wedding. You might still remember their beautiful weddings last year — My’s warmth of frost wedding and Ngoc’s birds of a feather wedding. They waved their magic wedding wands and everything became gold.

It was titled “The Lake Wedding”. Jill and Matt were married in the backyard of Jill’s parents house, on an island, by the lake. Beautiful day, awesome couple, amazing details… it couldn’t have been more perfect!


The ceremony was intimate and touching.


The details for this wedding are simply incredible. From the wedding dress made and altered by Jill’s mom and sister, to using a Harry Potter book as the ring box, to customized koozies, to hand crafted accessories, to candy ‘tree’, to pirate treasure map guestbook, to crazy cool cake topper, to paper lanterns and paper buntings (I am borderline obsessed with those!)… they are all so colorful and breathtaking.


Matt changed into a Sponge Bob t-shirt, shorts and sandals after the ceremony. I must say, it is the best wedding attire I have ever seen. Way to go, Matt!

This just shows how I am always lucky to get the best clients. Somehow they let me talked them into doing this…

Love this!

Enjoy the slideshow. This is going to be a long one!

Jill and Matt, you blew me away with how much of this wedding you did on your own, and how you managed to do it all without being completely stressed out, mystifies me. Thank you for choosing me as your photographer. It is such an honor to be able to spend the day with you and witness all the love. Lastly, thanks for rocking my socks off!

warmly,
Ai Ling

hayley and scott {wedding day}

date : june 26, 2010
ceremony and reception : blaisdell manor, minneapolis, minnesota

From the awesome bouquet and garter toss, we move on to Hayley and Scott’s amazing wedding.

Quite possibly my most favorite veil shot ever.

While the girls are enjoying some fun times,

the guys (and mother of the groom) are showing amazing teamwork putting together Scott. : )

And we headed to the Sculpture Garden for some portraits before going to the Blaisdell Manor for the ceremony.



Hayley planned the wedding perfectly, down to the finest details.





Enjoy and share!
