I hold this wedding near and dear to my heart! Jennifer and Ryan are the sweetest!!! Although I've only known them since their engagement session last winter I consider them friends. They're the couple that welcome you into their world with kindness, love, and plenty of hugs. It was no surprise that this kind of love brought together the most amazing close friends and family members to celebrate their wedding.

It truly was a day to remember in all aspects with beautiful sunny weather and contagious excitement from everyone. Jennifer and her beautiful bridesmaids were getting ready at the hotel and as I walked into the room I knew from the warm greetings and endless laughter it was going to be a fun day.... lots of positive energy!

When it was time for their ceremony at Club West in Blaine all the excitement turned into tears of joy. It started when Ryan locked eyes with Jennifer as she walked down the aisle with her father. I remember Ryan telling me this is how he wanted to see her for the first time and as I looked over to see his reaction I knew his heart was bursting with so many emotions. It was beautiful!!! 

I watched these interactions continue throughout the reception at Brookhall Event Center from the matron of honor's speech filling the entire room with laughter to all the sweet smiles while Ryan and his daughter Kaylee danced to their favorite song, Fireflies by Owl City. They accomplished every couple's goal for their wedding, every guest left with their hearts fuller.

Jennifer and Ryan, THANK YOU for the honor of trusting me to capture your wedding day! Your love for one another and deep care for your family and friends was such a gift to experience. What a beautiful new journey you have started! I am so happy for you!
