Kyle wore a grey suit from Joseph A. Bank. The pale greens and pastel tones complimented the beautiful and warm sunny day.
Jessica is on top of all the little details she decorated this little box for one of her ring bearers to carry during the ceremony.
Jessica and Kyle choose to see each other before the ceremony during a private reveal in the church. We gave them a bit of direction then we stood back and let them have their moment as we captured it from a distance. Their reveal allowed us time to then photograph all of the formals at the church before the ceremony so we could travel around St.Paul after the ceremony while wedding guests toured the Science Museum.
Jessica choose to remember her grandparents via incorporating family heirlooms through-out her attire. Jessica wore her grandmother's pearls and her grandfather's wings. The wings above were given to Jessica's grandmother from her grandfather at their engagement to be held as a promise of his love until he could replace them with a ring. In a further demonstration of her connection to her family Jessica walked down the aisle escorted by both her father and her mother and she gave them each a great big hug before taking Kyle's hand.
Pilgram Lutheran Church is a beautiful bright ceremony location filled with stain glass and natural light. We photographed all the family groups at the church. Following the ceremony we traveled across the Smith Ave High Bridge to photograph the bridal party with the St. Paul skyline.
From the bridge we traveled downtown to Rice Park. The sunshine and warm weather keep everyone comfortable and full of smiles. The George Latimer Central Library made a perfect backdrop for the photos.
The photo above and the photo below showcase the many faces of Jessica and Kyle's wedding party.
The Science Museum was the perfect location for Jessica and Kyle's Pi Day wedding reception. Between the ceremony and the reception wedding guests enjoyed exploring the Science Museum and the Space exhibit. Above Jessica and Kyle pick up their will call tickets.
Kyle and Jessica used an heirloom cake knife to cut their wedding cake passed down to them and engraved with the initials and wedding date of the couples before them.
No Pi Day celebration is complete without pie. Jessica and Kyle choose to offer their guests strawberry rhubarb, french silk, banana cream and apple pie for desert.
Jessica and Kyle danced the night away. Planning a wedding in St. Paul at the Science Museum? Visit www.phodot.com to learn more about Phodot wedding photographers Mark and Stacy Milburn and their wedding photography services.
