This gorgeous wedding took place at Nicollet Island Pavilion in Minneapolis. It was an absolutely breathtaking place to get married, but the stars of the show were Kendall and Brad. They were so kind and easy to work with, not to mention suuuper photogenic. So naturally, they made my job a breeze.
To kick off the day, Kendall, Brad, and their wedding party got ready at Hotel Ivy in Minneapolis. Kendall incorporated some sentimental details, including the dog tags of her pup, Bailey, who passed away just a few weeks after we took their engagement photos.
Getting ready photos are always fun to look back on because we get to witness a woman become a bride in the span of a couple hours–and then we get to see everyone’s reaction to how absolutely stunning she looks. Like this sweet mother of the bride who just can’t hide her excitement for her daughter. I mean, come on, they are both radiating happiness!
Did I mention that this incredibly sweet and drop dead gorgeous bride is also a neurosurgeon? Yeah. She’s the real deal, you guys!
Kendall is the perfect example for every future TLP bride on their wedding day – glowing with excitement and overjoyed to see her groom!
Brad brought Kendall some candy at their first look so she wouldn’t get too hungry. As my main man Chandler Bing would say, “Could they BE any cuter?” I mean just look at they way they look at each other! Pure magic.
Take a cue from these two: Hugs, twirls, and all kinds of playfulness are always encouraged on your wedding day.
The stuff of fairy tales. I don’t think we could have staged a better first kiss.
I always love it when couples gather up all their friends in for a photo. No matter what brings you all together, capturing everyone in a group shot is a must on your wedding day!
Congratulations Kendall and Brad, and thanks for allowing us to be part of your big day! We want nothing but the best for you as you enter married life!
