When we learned that Liz and Dave would be getting married at The Blaisdell exactly three years from the day that they met, we knew their day would be incredibly special! The Blaisdell is one of our favorite Minneapolis venues! Kaira is an absolutely incredible coordinator and her team is amazing to work with! We started the day by capturing details in the Blaisdell’s stunning bridal suite. The florals by Joy Unspeakable were gorgeous! SM Hair and Makeup did a beautiful job with the ladies hair and makeup and Liz looked absolutely stunning in her gown by Jenny Yoo from Flutter Boutique. The bridesmaids’ reactions to seeing her in her dress were so much fun! We loved their denim shirts and matching slippers!

The sweet moments continued with Liz’s first look with her father and brother followed by her first look with Dave just after walking down the Blaisdell’s grand staircase. We can’t wait to see all of the emotions Kelsey of Bellagala captured on video! We headed outdoors for a few bride and groom portraits before the wedding party joined the fun. The men were a blast to work with, and representing Florida, gave a shout out to the Florida Gators! The ladies looked beautiful with their velvet, merlot-colored bridesmaid dresses from Etsy and their denim jackets were the perfect accessory for the chilly fall day! Liz and Dave have the best group of family and friends and their Florida + Minnesota decor was the perfect way to celebrate their love story!

Following a beautiful ceremony in the ballroom, guests enjoyed cocktail hour, a family style dinner, and cakes by Angel Food Bakery. After some hilarious speeches, Matt from Instant Request DJ hosted an epic dance to end the evening! Liz and Dave, you were an absolute dream to work with and we hope San Diego was amazing! Cheers to many more beautiful years together!
