Shaya + Bradford // The Happy Gnome - Wedding Photographer

February 7, 2026 Bernadette Fox

The lovely power duo of Shaya + Brad planned such a wonderfully intimate marriage celebration that I might even consider it MY ideal wedding! ;) These two started by inviting only their closest family and friends, making for a guest list of just 35 people (yay!). And then they went on to perfect every single last detail (think custom-just-about-everything). The wedding party started their day at the charming New Victorian Bed and Breakfast in St. Paul, MN and the bride did an unparalleled job at matching everything to the overall theme... from rich blue velvet accents and blue suede shoes, to delicate winter florals, vintage-like jewels, and a 3-piece suit... needless to say, they were certainly dripping with style. The couple shared a cozy fireside wedding ceremony at The Happy Gnome where they walked each other down the aisle (my fav!) and topped it off with a champagne toast and some truly delicious food. The tables were decorated with fresh greens, votive candles and each place setting with gold chargers and hand-painted blue-agate place cards! Guests were treated to a specialty cookie bar for dessert as well as the couple's very favorite carrot cake. The newlyweds even made time for a little escape to the bar at The Commodore for their first celebratory drink as husband and wife. YES! Congrats and well done!

Hannah + Matt // Landmark Center Wedding

February 4, 2026 Bernadette Fox

Hannah + Matt hosted a seriously GORGEOUS winter wedding at the historic Landmark Center in Saint Paul, MN. And their incredibly talented coordinators at Pink Peony Wedding & Events perfected every single detail, from creating a highly romantic vibe with stunning floral decor to a fun + deliciously sweet candy bar for the guests. The wedding party embraced the season with dark maroon ties and dresses, gray pashmina wraps and a deeply rich color palette for the bouquets. We began with a few unique formal portraits in the restored courtrooms and then ventured outside for laid-back images in Rice Park. From there the couple exchanged vows with a candle-lit early evening ceremony inside the beautiful main gallery, and were serenaded by a string quartet. Following the ceremony the guests were invited upstairs for a wine hour and then the night was topped off with a very elegant dinner, some wonderfully touching speeches, and an amazing wedding party dance-off! Hannah + Matt's celebration was lovely in every way and a great beginning their story together.

Erin + Chris // New Year's Eve - Winter Wedding Minneapolis

January 14, 2026 Bernadette Fox

Erin and Chris got hitched on the very last day of 2016! And these two were all about sharing the celebration with their family and friends. The day started in classic midwest style with everyone wearing flannel! And the Bride made sure to make her Bridesmaids feel special with custom chalk-board signs that shared how they were each connected to her. Erin's "something blue" was her lace Tom's flats, but she also planned appropriately for the season with fancy Ugg boots! And her Bridesmaids rocked stunning gray-blue toned dresses. Once dressed, Erin did a very memorable Bridesmaid's "First Look", making an entrance in a glass elevator as all the girls anticipated her arrival below.

Anna + Marc // Nicollet Island Pavilion winter Wedding

January 5, 2026 Bernadette Fox

A fresh dusting of snow and an iconic riverside destination with city skyline views, makes the perfect backdrop for a Minnesota winter wedding. It certainly takes a brave couple to plan a December celebration in the midwestern tundra, but the results (romantic winter sunlight and cozy interiors) are definitely worth it, and everyone is guaranteed an experience to remember.
