It’s pretty safe to assume that I love all of my couples with all of my heart. So when a couple comes to me and says they were referred to me by a past couple of mine, I go all heart and star-eyed because I know this couple’s wedding is gonna be HELLA FUN!
That was 100% the case for Alexandra and Cameron’s Fall equinox wedding at the Eagan Community Center.
Alexandra and Cameron are remarkably down to earth and easy going. They met on Tinder and after a year and a half of dating Cameron popped the big Q.
On the morning of their wedding, nerves were hanging in the air. But they didn’t last long. Once Alexandra got into her dress and walked down to meet Cameron for their first look, all anxieties melted away. They hugged each other, gave many many kisses, and exclaimed how excited they were that their day had finally arrived.
The weather was perfect. The quintessential fall day, which was especially wonderful since it was the Fall equinox. The sun shone brightly and everyone took that as a good omen. And a good omen it was! There was only one dramatic moment when the wind started tipping their ceremony arch over but Cameron leapt into action and saved their officiant, Alexandra’s grandmother.
As the afternoon shifted to evening, the reception and dancing began. Instead of doing a regular dollar dance, Alexandra and Cameron wished to take the opportunity to raise money for charity. I didn’t catch how much was raised but the stack of bills was pretty thick.
Alexandra and Cameron, thank you so much for welcoming my team and me into your lives. From our initial meeting, to your engagement session, to the wedding, and beyond, I am grateful for your friendship and positive energy. May you know only joy and happiness as the years pass by! Much love to you both!!
