Chase + Taylor

This day was perfect. From recreating how they first met hammocking, to the beautiful vows that left everyone in tears (literally the amount of sniffles in the room was almost it's own moment). Stillwater, MN always has it's own quaint small town feel, and each season seems shows off its own tailored vibe. Summer's have something special. As we strolled along the river, post ceremony, the last bit of sun was the perfect amount shimmer for popping some champaign. The Stillwater Lift Bridge was bustling with happy onlookers (quick so yell a congratulatory well wish) and boats out for an evening cruise. This was one of my favorite moments (usually always is). The post ceremony happiness is written all over the faces of of these two, and I couldn't help but feel giddy being around them. We returned to The Loft at Studio J for the end of the cocktail hour and the start to a delicious dinner. The room felt warm, inviting and full - in the best way. Candles burned late into the evening as the guests danced the night away. It was perfect. When I met Chase and Taylor, they expressed the desire for their photos to "capture pure joy, happiness, and love." I think those words describe the day they created perfectly, and I hope these photos give them all of those things and more, when they look back at them for years to come!
