We first met Therese and Jacques at their gorgeous fall engagement session in Marine on St. Croix and could not have had a more breathtaking evening for photos in the field.  Little did we know, that their wedding day would be every bit as beautiful and would end with a stunning sunset on the shores of Minnetonka Beach!

Their morning began at the Church of St. Michael where Therese and Jacques prepared for their big day.  We captured a few portraits before guests began to arrive, and Therese and Jacques exchanged vows in a beautiful ceremony surrounded by family and friends.  They exited all smiles as the newest Mr. and Mrs., and we photographed their families before the wedding party gathered in Renee’s Limousines’ Twin Cities Trolley to travel to the reception.  Upon arrival at the Lafayette Club, we set off to explore the grounds for portraits of the newlyweds and their wedding party.  We had the best time working alongside the talented Story of Us Films, and we can’t wait to see the fun they captured on video!  

Following portraits, we joined social hour before heading into the ballroom for the reception.  The space looked absolutely breathtaking with Linen Effects decor and arrangements by Pristine Floral.  Guests enjoyed dinner, speeches, and dessert from Buttercream Cakes and Bridgeman’s Ice Cream.  Following Therese and Jacques’ beautifully choreographed first dances, we stepped outside for some gorgeous golden hour photos by the lake.  We returned for an evening filled with entertainment including the shoe game and the bouquet and garter tosses, closing out the night with dancing hosted by Instant Request.  Therese and Jacques, it was an absolute honor being part of your incredible wedding day, and we hope that your honeymoon in Italy is the perfect way to celebrate your newest adventure as newlyweds!
