Day Block, Downtown Mpls Wedding

December 7, 2025 Bernadette Fox

Documenting the wedding of a colleague is one of the very highest honors... and especially so if it is the extremely talented Sydnee Bickett Photography. Sydnee and Luis' story is one of true love, and it was obvious to all who shared in their wonderfully unique celebration. The Bride transformed her great grandmother's blue/blush pink wedding dress into a modern gown (hello pockets!), and carried a stunning felted bouquet. Married at the Day Block Event Center in downtown Minneapolis, every element of their celebration was personalized... from a bicycle theme with custom bow ties and a spoke backdrop, to an accordion ceremony serenade and live bluegrass music, vow moments captured on polaroids, heart-felt speeches in both English and Spanish, a super delicious pizza bar (accompanied by hand-sewn cloth napkins for their guests to keep!), and some very competitive (wait for it) BINGO! to end the evening... Luis + Sydnee certainly put their own stamp of love and fun on the day. Here's to many years of great pizza, fun games and endless adventures ahead, together!

Amanda + Steve // The Copper Hen, A Fall Minneapolis Wedding

November 2, 2025 Bernadette Fox

Amanda + Steve took advantage of every single moment that the last perfect Fall day offered them! They surrounded themselves with lots of laughter and support from friends in the morning, nailed a super fun First Look in downtown Minneapolis (complete with the bride's sister-squad!), made colorful portraits in the park and at the Stone Arch Bridge, and then met their 50 closest friends and family for a cozy ceremony at The Copper Hen restaurant. These two walked each other down the isle (swoon!) and proceeded to have one the the most hilariously sweet wedding ceremonies that I've ever witnessed. Their Fall theme was complete with mini pumpkins as place cards, inspired signature cocktails, and delicious comfort food. The final touch was that every single guest hit the dance floor! Amanda + Steve, if your life together is even half as fun as your wedding was, then you're in for a real treat! :)

Teddy + Geoff // 514 Studios - Downtown Wedding Minneapolis

October 1, 2026 Bernadette Fox

Teddy + Geoff's wedding celebration was a perfect mix of romance, food and fun! Their ceremony and reception was hosted at 514 Studios in downtown Minneapolis and expertly planned by the marvelous team at Maven Events. Their gorgeous theme was brought to life with delicate orchids, sparkly blue bridesmaid dresses, paper lantern lights, super yummy Chinese food, and lovely take-home chopsticks for their guests. With the best ever wedding party "first look" I've ever seen, fun group portraits on the cobblestone streets of the North Loop, cocktails under the stars, AH-mazing homemade cakes by the bride's mom, and dancing into the evening, everyone enjoyed the day to it's fullest. Congratulations, Teddy + Geoff... well done!

Alissa + Matt // The Proposal - 112 Eatery, Minneapolis

February 2, 2026 Bernadette Fox

Matt planned a gorgeous, super romantic proposal for his girl, Alissa, and everything went perfectly! (spoiler alert... she said YES). He arranged for a private room at 112 Eatery in downtown Minneapolis, one of their favorite restaurants, and thought of every last detail -- from strings of cafe lights to beautiful flowers, fun photos of their adventures together, special wine and a custom dinner menu -- all leading up to his popping the question on 3 mini-chalkboard signs (Alissa... will you... marry me?). Alissa was genuinely surprised and couldn't believe that he had done so much planning without her knowing! They embraced, laughed, toasted with champagne and then sat down to share their first meal together as fiancees. Congratulations Alissa + Matt -- I was honored to witness!

September 22, 2026 Bernadette Fox

What do you get when you have a fun-loving couple + a swanky venue + a solid crew of friends + a skateboard? Most certainly a day to remember! The adorable Heidi + Jake hosted their posh wedding at Muse Event Center in downtown Minneapolis, with a sophisticated gold and purple theme. From portraits and skating on the Stone Arch Bridge, to a romantic ceremony under a chandelier, with a stroll through downtown, and dancing with family -- this duo has started their marriage off right. Congratulations, Heidi + Jake, and thanks for allowing us to spend the day with you!
