We truly can’t imagine a more perfect setting to host Allison and Trystan’s summer wedding than the incredible Chankaska Creek Ranch and Winery in Kasota.  Cynthia and her team were wonderful to work with, and Melya Owens and Nicole Brannen did a fabulous job of ensuring the day was stunning from start to finish!  The ladies began the morning with hair and makeup with Amy Johnston, Shelby Jo Hair, and Annie of EVRY Makeup Studio.  We documented all of the beautiful details before capturing a few photos of the ladies in their matching PJs.  Allison put on her gorgeous gown and walked out to the vineyard to meet her groom.

Allison and Trystan shared a sweet first look and exchanged private vows before we set off to explore the grounds for portraits together.  Soon after, their wedding party and families joined us, and we finished up with extended family photos just before guests began to arrive.  Family and friends gathered for a gorgeous outdoor ceremony in the forest, and Allison and Trystan exited to cheers as they dipped and kissed in the aisle.  They greeted their guests afterwards with hugs and enjoyed social hour in the tent before heading into the Event Center for the reception.

The space looked amazing with floral arrangements from Flowers by Julie, and following their grand entrance, we captured photos of the newlyweds with each table of guests.  Everyone enjoyed dinner by Divine Swine Catering, speeches, and dessert from Nothing Bundt Cakes.  We stepped out for a few golden hour portraits in the field before returning for the epic dance party hosted by the incredibly talented Benny Nord.  Allison and Trystan, your day was an absolute dream to be a part of, and we wish you all the very best on your many adventures ahead!
