What gorgeous weather for a St. Paul Wedding! Molly & Ezra made the difficult and beautiful choice to keep their wedding in 2020 but to change their venue. I echo what the minister said during the ceremony: “I am proud of you two!” Augustana Lutheran Church provided such a glorious spot for first looks and […]

I am absolutely thrilled to write about Chloe & Taylor’s wedding at The Grand! This excitement came from the ashes of a devastating day in March. Just days before their wedding date, coronavirus forced The Grand to call with horrible, devastating news: there would be no wedding that Saturday. COViD-19 lockdowns began. The shock of such […]

I pulled into the countryside of Ross & Sarah’s wedding venue thinking I walked into a dream. The greens and ochres of the meadow and fields framed white rows of ceremony chairs and a swath of white fabric fluttered in the breeze, dancing in the sun. This scenery got me so excited– and then I […]

Friends, this Apple Valley wedding will make you smile! Angy & Mario crafted a day as stress-free and beautiful as they are themselves. You may remember their engagement session where I spoke highly of their ability to be chill. Well, this truth was proven again. Showing that once again, coronavirus can alter but not cancel […]

How amazing is it that the backyard wedding has made a comeback?! In the spirit of continuing on with life during this pandemic, I have witnessed such amazing communities coming together to love on the brides and grooms of 2020! Anna & Corey’s day overflowed with lavish attention to detail – I absolutely cannot get […]

As the storm of COViD-19 barreled through the United States, Trisha & Tyler chose to keep their wedding date and downscale their celebration in Faribault. Can I just say how proud I am of them? Letting the closed doors around them take their day would have been a WAY EASIER option. The American dream wedding […]

The photograph above is definitely one of my favorite wedding photos – the joy of saying “I do!” (This is basically what my happy dance looks like, except Evan wins in the height department!) As a solo-prenuer (aka the only one behind the face of Jennifer Sanders Photography), I am so often smiling behind my […]

There’s nothing quite like a Northfield winter wedding. In the merry hall of the Armory Square Event Center, two newlyweds dance their first dance. Like so many couples before them, the song plays and they faithfully swing to the beat. At this point in most weddings, guests may find their minds wandering as the song […]

Driving through the glory of Minnesota country, I knew this Waltham wedding would surprise me either with dark clouds or glorious sunshine. Every storm was just miles to the side of my drive– but the rain did not fall on us all day! If I had to put a slogan to Tya & Devan’s wedding, it […]

As I stepped out of the sidewalk into Aria, florists were arranging delicate blossoms on archways. The openness and the urban character of Aria is certainly striking in itself, but how beautiful to adorn it with real flowers, and to bring the countryside into the industrial sphere! Truly, I was amazed at the work those […]
