Christina and Kory had a beautiful outdoor wedding in Big Lake, MN. Next to a little pound, friends and family watched as Christina and Kory said, “I Do.” The weather was perfect, Christina looked amazing, and everyone there enjoyed the afternoon.

The reception was at The Mermaid in an outdoor tent. Dinner included a cheesecake buffet for dessert and the bride and groom cut a Dairy Queen ice-cream cake in place of a traditional wedding cake.

Congratulations Christina and Kory!

We met up with Rebecca and Jeff at a park not far from Little Falls, MN. It was a bit of a drive out there for David and I, so when we arrived, we were more then ready to walk around and get some great shots of the couple. The scenery was great as we walked throughout the park taking pictures and enjoying the outdoors.

After we shoot some wonderful pictures of Rebecca and Jeff, we headed over to First Lutheran Church where the ceremony would take place. It was a lovely little church with close-knit atmosphere. Jeff played games and rehearsed his lines, and Rebecca’s friends presented her with a beautiful, fun photo album. The ceremony was relaxed and went smoothly as Jeff “kissed the bride.”

After the ceremony, we made a quick stop at a local pub for a few drinks before heading over to Randall, MN for the reception. The dinner reception was held at a family farm in an large tent. The whole event had a very fun, relaxed, picnic feel to it. As guests ate fried chicken and rice, they enjoyed a live bluegrass band. Every detail was had a summer theme. Even the tables were labeled with different kinds of flowers. Wedding guests were invited to pitch a tent on their large property, and spend the night, as the party winded down late into the night.

It truly was a beautiful wedding. Congrats to Rebecca and Jeff!
