Julia and Ian v2.0

I started the weekend at Julia and Ian's rehearsal dinner in Ian's parents gorgeous backyard in South Saint Paul

Nerd books :)

No backyard party is complete without a little Bocce

Pretty Candelabras

Cute dogs

...and a preview of what was yet to come.  (FYI, Julia's rehearsal dress was her mother's original wedding dress altered to what you see here; adorable)

Now, onto the big day...

Ian and Julia chose the Cedarhurst Mansion for their ceremony and reception, and it fit their personalities perfectly!  Quaint and elegant, this wedding was a photographers dream.  
Looking radiant from the beginning

The Goods

Loves it!

I love the expression women get on their face as they put on their dress!
Reading a note from Ian before their ceremony.

Girls being girls

His first glimpse

My favorite shot all day... I think Julia somehow channeled Billie Holiday for this moment

Horah!
