lasting impressions weddings is an award-winning minnesota wedding planning and design company

What a fun day to relive!! Mindy and Ryan are probably two of the sweetest people I have ever met! They are high school sweethearts that are so in love and full of energy, love and NEVER stop smiling 🙂 Family and Friends are a big part of their lives and it was such an honor helping them plan their big day… right along with both of their moms!! I love getting to help pull together my bride’s vision for the day.. and NOTHING brings me more joy on the day of the wedding then seeing her face when she first sees the reception space! Mindy’s face was documented by the wonderful photographer Matt Lien Photography and I will forever be grateful for that moment! Mindy, Tracy, Debbi and Ryan all have impeccable taste as you can tell by the choices in Linens and Floral! Central Lutheran Church provided a beautiful backdrop for the traditional ceremony. Guests then headed to the Calhoun Beach Club for cocktail hour and a fantastic party!! Acrylic Menus, Ice Luge’s, Mirrored signs and lots and lots of blooms by Just Bloomed created a fun atmosphere to celebrate Mindy and Ryan’s Marriage!!

Mindy and Ryan.. I miss talking to you everyday.. I hope that your first few months of being a newlywed have been full of lots and lots of love!!

This blog post seems VERY appropriate now that the weather is starting to get chilly!!! I was lucky enough to help Lindsay and Toby with their January wedding and it was chilly outside and warm and cozy inside the Landmark Center!! Andrew Vick of course did a fantastic job capturing the moments of the day (complete with the groomsmen playing baseball) and Jackie from Just Bloomed warmed up the white and sparkly decor inside the venue!!! Lindsay and Toby not only were fantastic to work with but it was fun getting to know their loving families throughout the process!!!!

Happy (Just About) Anniversary Toby and Lindsay! I hope that your first year has been as wonderful as your wedding!!!
