It could not have been a more beautiful day for Ellie and Michael’s summer wedding at Bearpath Golf & Country Club in Eden Prairie.  Sunshine and blue skies provided a gorgeous backdrop, and Kim and her team did an amazing job of ensuring everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The morning began in the newly remodeled bridal suite where the ladies finished preparing with the talented Whitney Bass and Tracy Johnson of Primped on hair and makeup.  After capturing photos in their matching pjs, Ellie put on her stunning gown, and we stepped outside for portraits with her bridesmaids and family before heading back in for photos of the men.  We wrapped up portraits with Michael’s family and groomsmen before guests began to arrive.

Everyone gathered for a breathtaking outdoor ceremony, and the tears began as Michael watched his beautiful bride walk down the aisle.  The two exchanged rings and exited with a kiss in the aisle as guests cheered.  Capturing their tears of joy and Michael with his new ring was one of the sweetest parts of the day!  We stepped back outside for family photos followed by portraits with the wedding party.  We had the best time exploring the grounds together for newlywed portraits, and we returned for cocktail hour before heading inside for the reception.  

The space looked beautiful with arrangements by Chanhassen Floral, and guests enjoyed dinner and cake from Sweet Roast.  We captured group photos with each table before toasts began, and Ellie and Michael took to the dance floor for their first dances.  The evening came to a close with an epic dance party hosted by Mitch of Instant Request DJ Entertainment.  Ellie and Michael, your day was absolutely perfect, and we are so honored to have been a part of your incredible celebration!
