Jessica and Chad got married at the unbelievable Outing Lodge at Pinepoint in Stillwater, MN last weekend as they tied the knot among the giant pine trees surrounded with their dearest family and friends.
I go way back with Jessica and recently we have reunited our friendship because we have both been through the loss of a parent and have found kinship in one anothers story....so, needless to say this day was extremely special for me to be a part of! :) Jessica and Chad laugh together, they have fun together but more importantly they are undoubtedly madly in love for one another and it is obvious. The way they look into each other's eyes and smile at one another is perfect and perfectly shares who they are to the other one....it was great to catch glimpses of this as the ceremony unfolded.
The venue offers an eclectic, lodge-antique feel with amazing food, staff and decor and it was just the perfect place for Jessica and Chad to exchange vows.

In case you didn't catch this, Jessica's caption should read...
"CAN YOU BELIEVE I AM GETTING MARRIED TODAY!?!?! WAAAHHHH!!!"
"CAN YOU BELIEVE I AM GETTING MARRIED TODAY!?!?! WAAAHHHH!!!"
And then off to the front gardens to have a little champagne and toasting time...
One of their little flower girls, Hadley, was the cutest ever and soooo NOT camera shy. Can you tell?
Hands down my favorite 2 from the day....
The reception was intimate, personal and simply beautiful....along with some of the funniest toasts I have ever heard....
Thanks for including me on your special day Jessica and Chad....you were gorgeous and unbelievably radiant the whole day! I wish you many days of long-boarding together.....
