The bride and groom planned an early fall wedding with vintage flair. The colors were gray, yellow and chartreuse, which played out in the flowers designed by the bride, invitations, programs, bridesmaid dresses and brides shoes! Something old was a garter passed down from generation to generation on the groom’s mother’s side. Something new was a pair of yellow crystal earrings gifted to the bride by her mom. Special touches included family wedding photos at the reception, a ‘live’ photo booth for guests, the bride’s sister styling hair, and a late night snack of the groom’s favorite Chipotle tacos.
The bride led a flower workshop with friends and family two days before the wedding – everyone pitched in to make sure the flowers were completed on time and to the bride’s standards! Their wedding day far exceeded all expectations!!

Oh how I adore the James J. Hill Library. I guess I'll have to settle for living in the same city as it, although I do dream of getting married there!
