Lee and Andrew were so much fun at their engagement session I knew their wedding would be a great time. We met up at The Gale Mansion where they were getting ready and would later have their reception.
They met through their love of movies. Andrew and I planned on recreating several famous images from movies with his groomsmen! It was so much crazy fun. I’ve recreated images before so it was a familiar process for me. I included a few below. One from a movie and one from a comic. Feel free to guess which ones they’re from as I can’t exactly link to them hehe.
Lee was absolutely beautiful in her dress and sewed a small blue button into it that her mother and grandmother had worn. She and her sister were so very sweet together it made my day.
Their ceremony was held at St. Joan of Arc church in Minneapolis. They had both the church’s priest and the one from Lee’s childhood church perform the ceremony. It was a very special touch.
By the time we were back at the Gale it was definitely time to party! Everyone was dancing and had a great time.
The part you won’t see is that during this joyful celebration, Lee’s mother was unable to attend because she was very ill. There were times during the day when we would stop and send her pictures or someone would call. I think it’s an important story about how to struggle and live your life, incorporating the good and the sad.
Congratulations to Lee and Andrew, I hope your lives together continue to be beautiful and joyful.
