Beau hasn’t photographed at the Earle Brown Heritage Center for many years now. It was an honor to be a part of Courtney and Jason’s wedding there!!  This venue has is a historical landmark in North Minneapolis, Minnesota.  Courtney enjoyed getting ready with her flower girls and her mom in the adjoining Embassy Suites hotel.  The rooms were all suites, so there was a lot of room to get ready.  Courtney and her dad shared a first moment, when he saw his little girl a a bride! He was so proud of his daughter.  I enjoyed assisting Beau for this wedding! My favorite part was going to the Dangerous Man Brewery in Minneapolis.  I tried the Peanut Butter Porter and I have been craving it ever since!!  It is so fun to break away with the bridal party for fun adventures!! Courtney and Jason’s ceremony was in the courtyard of the Earle Brown Heritage Center, it was a beautiful ceremony. The officiant traveled all the way from Switzerland!  His daughters were the adorable flower girls.  We really loved the heartfelt vows that the bride and groom wrote for each other.  Courtney was the happiest Bride to capture after they were announced the newlyweds!!  They shared a ton of hugs with their loved ones and headed inside the lovely timber framed ballroom for cocktail hour and delicious appetizers.  Beau photographed Courtney in her cathedral veil in the sunset… and then the Bride and Groom were announced for their reception and first dance.  All the guests shared an elegant meal with the newlyweds and heard the heartfelt speeches. Every table had its own delicious cake! All the guests loved that idea!!  The DJ with Level 11 Events was wonderful and professional! The dance floor was packed into the night and Courtney and Jason were overwhelmed with love and laughter!! Thank you Courtney and Jason for having us photograph your elegant wedding day!! ~Bethany
