September 13th, 2008 – I traveled towards Owatonna, MN to Ellendale, MN as the wedding photographer for my clients Katie & Victor. I’m so happy to be a part of such great weddings, especially when the whole bridal party has a good time. It didn’t matter that the weather was little dreary as it was misting the whole way there and during the wedding ceremony.
However, a little mist & rain did not dampen the love these two have. The weather did not stop the wedding. It did not stop all the wedding guests from smiling or hugging the newlywed couple in their receiving line. Wouldn’t you know it, as we arrived at the Owatonna Country Club for the reception, the skies started to clear which allowed us to venture out on golf carts and make use of the beautiful golf course for some pictures.
And now for some of those wedding pictures! The altar had matching bouquets on each side which were nice and bright…
The lighting of their unity candle with great concentration…
During the recessional, beautiful piano music played on as guests made their way to the exit…
There were many hugs & smiles to go around…
After the wedding, it was time to load into the limo and head for a little pre-celebration at a couple of pubs. This is when it became clear of the love between Katie & Victor. Always near each other’s side. A little hug or a kiss here & there. Still having a fun time with their friends & family in the bridal party – anyone could tell & see the love for one another each of them had…
Of course when you have siblings involved, there’s usually a little bit of mischief. Katie’s brother and Victor’s sister were paired up as a couple during the wedding and they had everyone smiling in way or another…
Not that they were the only ones who made everyone laugh, those last two photos in particular caught my eye. A good time was had by all and by having the closest people in your life in your bridal party, chances are likely there will be many smiles and laughter to go around…
It was truly a special & fun wedding to photograph. Thank you Katie & Victor for having me as your wedding photographer! I wish you both many years of love & happiness!
