Angelika and Alec’s cinematic Saint Paul engagement session took us from the iconic Capitol to the charm of Irvine Park, inspired by La Venere- a stunning, French-inspired speakeasy venue.

Natalie and Keaton’s once-in-a-lifetime day was filled to the brim with out-of-the-box spring wedding ideas that are sure to stick in the memories of both the newlyweds and their guests.Majestic mountain backdrop?
