Nicollet Island Pavilion in Minneapolis could not have been a more perfect setting to host Mariah and Chad’s gorgeous summer wedding!  Cyndi and her team ensured the details were stunning from start to finish, and Christina Marie Floral did a fabulous job on florals!  The morning began at the Nicollet Island Inn where the ladies were preparing with The Beauty Painters on hair and makeup.  Mariah put on her breathtaking Rue de Seine gown from A & Be Bridal Shop, and the day had officially begun!

Chad and his groomsmen arrived via limo, and stepped out wearing The Black Tux suits from Nordstrom.  He walked down to the riverside for his first look with Mariah, and we set off to explore the grounds for portraits.  The wedding party joined us, and had the best time taking photos together.  These two have such a fun group of friends and family, and every single minute of the day was filled with endless smiles and laughter!  It was truly such an honor capturing so many joy-filled moments!

The ceremony began with harp music, and Mariah’s parents walked her down the aisle.  She and Chad exchanged vows surrounded by family and friends, and guests cheered as Chad broke glass before walking down the aisle, all smiles with his beautiful bride!  Guests mingled throughout the grounds for cocktail hour, before heading indoors for the reception, where they enjoyed dinner and desserts by Mintahoe Catering.  We stepped outside for a few golden hour photos before heading in for speeches and dancing.  Preenon Huq did an amazing job of hosting the epic dance party, complete with Hora and sparklers!  Mariah and Chad, your wedding was absolutely incredible, and so much fun!  We hope that your honeymoon in Greece is amazing, and wish you all the very best in the many years to come!
