A Bride's Best Friend

Sarah & Lee wanted to make sure their day went effortlessly while they enjoyed every moment without worrying about every wonderful detail they had planned. For a mid-May day, the weather sure did cooperate (and then some!) with a high of 90! Their ceremony took place at the beautiful Mt. Olivet – where elegance exudes from the chapel. The light-hearted wedding party kept things fun as the day unfolded. There ceremony was a beautiful reflection of the couple – including a stunning duet of “The Prayer.” After vows were shared and rings exchanged, the party started at the Day Block Building – a space above Minneapolis’ new restaurant, Spill the Wine. Guests were greeted with complimentary valet service – what a nice touch to accommodate your guests! The building has such a cool, loft-like, downtown feel. Decor included hanging votive lanterns, wine cork everything and lace to add a soft feel. Escort cards were displayed on shutters (guests commented on the uniqueness all night!) and table numbers were named after significant places in the couple’s life (hometowns, favorite restaurants, etc.). After a tasty family-style meal and some touching toasts (including one by one of the bride’s brothers), guests were treated to a fun dessert buffet of cupcakes, cake pops, chocolate, fruit tarts and more. The DJ kept the dancing going all night with lots of fun hits and guests complimented the food, venue, flowers and couple all night! 🙂

“Meredith Meyer helped me with my day-of-planning for my wedding and was exceptional. She is extremely thorough and helped with the stress of the little things that can add up. Her planning and itinerary made the day of the wedding smooth and I would recommend her to anyone.”
