From their sun-drenched outdoor ceremony at Trellis Outdoor Wedding Ceremonies to their absolutely unforgettable reception at the cool JX Venue, their day was the perfect combination of natural beauty, and emotional and happy celebration.
The girls and guys were filled with high spirit and nervous anticipation when Alex and Jennifer and their closest friends and family were getting ready on the morning of the day. You could hear the love and support in every smile, in every encouraging word, in every quiet moment of reflection. With Alex tying his own tie and Jennifer slipping on a wedding dress, this was a day that they’d each named, and it was shaping up exactly as planned.
AM Photography Nestled in the nature of Stillwater, MN, Trellis Outdoor Wedding Ceremonies was the ideal place for their vow exchange. With gardens abloom, everything a lush shade of green and the buzz of summer in the air, it was a magical day. Jennifer radiated grace as she walked down the garden aisle with a giant smile on her face as Alex looked on in awe and love. The couple said their vows and exchanged the most heartwrenching and nauseatingly cute personal vows ever, which formed happy tears and brought out the kind of love that makes people shake their heads and feel lucky just to be in the vicinity of.
The reception afterward, at the JX Venue, was a change of energy, from calm and sweet to exuberant and celebratory. JX Venue, in the heart of Stillwater, MN provided the ideal combination of industrial chic and urban elegance. High ceilings, brick walls, and mood lighting created a romantic vibe throughout the evening, of dancing, laughter, and touching toasts. The centerpieces and lighting, among other details, were all a reflection of Alex and Jennifer’s style and personality.
Though it has been particularly overwhelming to hear Vivek share the stories that come from those who know them best. Toasts by family and friends depicted a couple that completes each other, that has been each other’s support in challenging times, and that enjoys a playfully deep love. It was so obvious that there was something between them in the way they looked at each other, touched and laughed together.
As their wedding videographers, we had the privilege of documenting these moments — big and small. The secret looks during dinner, the impromptu dancing, the hugs that hang on an extra beat — they’re in those unscripted moments that the true beauty of a wedding day shines. And Alex and Jennifer’s wedding was chock full of them.
Their first dance was one to remember — elegant and emotional — then their guests danced the night away. Attendance spanned all age and a new generation of fans has been born to carry on the tradition.
Historic Stillwater and its magnificent views of the rivers were the perfect setting for this classic celebration. And as the night wrapped up, it was obvious that this day wasn’t just about a gorgeous ceremony or a great party — it was about two people who have found their person, surrounded by everyone who loves them best.
Alex and Jennifer, we are so thrilled we got to witness this beautiful day! Your love story is proof that love is something to celebrate — and your wedding day was just that.
Here’s to a lifetime of happiness, adventure, and laughter in the future.
