Rachel + Brad | Camrose Hill
The Planning
Today we are taking a stroll all the way back to October of 2016 to reminisce on Rachel and Brad’s beautiful wedding day! We absolutely loved helping coordinate all of the details while also mixing in some Rustic Elegance decor. The couple’s wedding perfectly encompassed Minnesota’s gorgeous autumn vibes and are still swooning over it!
The Morning
The ladies showed up early to get ready for the big day, with the guys arriving shortly after to do the same. Rachel and her bridesmaids wore the cutest flannels while getting ready in the cottage which made for a cozy fall look! While the wedding party spent their morning preparing for the day, Kellie and her assistant were busy setting up the decor and greeting vendors as they arrived. The couple chose to skip a first look, which made her ceremony entrance oh-so grand!
The Ceremony
The guests began to take their seats at the beautiful Camrose Hill while the wedding party was tucked away for a quick prayer. The wedding party walked gracefully down the aisle to beautiful music played by Adaigo. The ceremony consisted of a few scripture readings, the couple’s exchange of vows, a cord braiding unity symbol, and of course a kiss!
The Reception
After the ceremony, Rachel and Brad went off to snap some couples photos with the amazing Eileen K. Photography. While the couple took pictures, guests enjoyed cocktail hour with bartending by With a Twist. There were also fun yard games to keep everyone entertained and having fun!
We loved the decor the couple chose for this space! It made for the perfect fall look with the pumpkin centerpieces, twinkly lights, and candles scattered around. The rentals from Ultimate Events mixed in with a few rentals from Rustic Elegance made the room come to life!
The guests were then seated for dinner to watch the wedding party’s grand entrance to the song “Now That We Found Love”. Soon after, it was time to start enjoying the buffet provided by Divine Swine - which is always delicious! For dessert the couple chose Gail’s Cakes, which was a huge hit! We also enjoyed the special touch of miniature pumpkin pies to add to the autumn-themed wedding. The guests then hit the dance floor and the Adagio DJ kept everyone on their feet all night long!
Rachel & Brad, We hope that the past few years have made for a beautiful married life for the two of you!
