August 8th, 2014 was a beautiful, sunny, Minnesota summer day for Dale and Kerry's wedding at The Little Log House Pioneer Village in Hastings. Mark and I enjoyed spending the day with Kerry, the bride and Dale, the groom, while capturing their wedding day for them.
Mark had a blast photographing Dale, the groom and his groomsmen all over the village.
The Little Log House Pioneer Village was full of vintage charm and it offered so many wedding photography options. Kerry had me begin photographing her day after her hair and make-up was complete but before she put on her dress. Above, I photographed Kerry's wedding dress hanging just outside the Dress Shoppe in the village.
Kerry surrounded herself with friends as she got dressed. The Little Log House Pioneer Village offers separate spaces for the bride and groom to get ready. I loved the light from the stain-glass windows as it fell on Kerry as she got ready.
Kerry and Dale choose to see each other before the ceremony. We choose the garden as the location for the reveal keeping Dale in the shade and cool as he waited for Kerry to arrive. After the reveal we photographed the wedding party and family formal photos all before the ceremony.
Kerry and Dale full of smiles as they spend their first moments together on their wedding day.
Kerry and Dale choose to perform a sand ceremony to represent their union. I love the signature glass cube they had made for the ceremony.
Kerry was all smiles as she walked arm in arm with her dad down the aisle.
Guests were happy to fan themselves to keep cool during the outdoor wedding ceremony with the programs.
After the ceremony as guests made their way to the reception hall onsite at the village we ran around the grounds with the wedding party photographing them at various spots. Below we captured the wedding party under the Drive-in sign.
As photographers we just had to make use of the railway car and the telephone booth at the village.
Kerry and Dale's purple and grey heart shaped card box carried the couples wedding colors.
Dale and Kerry's photogenic friends helped the couple celebrate their wedding all night long.
All eyes were on Kerry and Dale as they danced their first dance. They crowd only increased as the father-daughter and the mother-son dances took place. There is no better backdrop for the dance photos then the smiles of friends and family as they watch you dance the night away.
A night photo in the neon is a must at the Little Log House Pioneer Village for every couple that ties the knot at the village.
