There’s something truly magical about a winter wedding in Minnesota—and Scott & Britta’s wedding day on February 20, 2016, was no exception. From the heartfelt ceremony at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Vermillion, to the elegant reception at Brackett’s Crossing Country Club in Lakeville, their day was filled with joy, reverence, and the kind of love that lights up even the coldest February afternoon.

The morning started with calm anticipation. Britta, surrounded by her closest friends and family, prepared for the day with a beautiful mix of laughter and quiet reflection. The bridal suite was filled with soft music, curling irons, and heartfelt moments. As she stepped into her gown—a classic lace number that fit her like it was made just for her—the emotion in the room became tangible. Britta’s radiant smile, combined with a few happy tears, said everything about what the day meant to her.

Meanwhile, Scott got ready with his groomsmen nearby. His calm energy set the tone as he shared stories, adjusted his tie, and opened a heartfelt letter from Britta. That letter, filled with gratitude, memories, and promises for the future, made it clear: this was a marriage built on friendship, faith, and deep respect.

The ceremony took place at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, a timeless and sacred space that echoed with reverence as friends and family filled the pews. As the doors opened and Britta walked down the aisle, you could feel the entire room pause. Scott’s face lit up with emotion as their eyes met, and that moment—the one they’d imagined for so long—was finally real.

With scripture, song, and tradition, their Catholic wedding ceremony beautifully reflected their values. Their vows, spoken with confidence and sincerity, touched everyone in attendance. It was a ceremony filled with meaning and grace, marking the start of a journey that had clearly been blessed from the start.

After the ceremony, the celebration moved to Brackett’s Crossing Country Club in Lakeville. The venue, elegantly decorated with seasonal touches and warm tones, was the perfect place for friends and family to gather in celebration. Floor-to-ceiling windows offered views of the snowy grounds, while the interior radiated warmth and joy.

The couple’s grand entrance set the tone for the evening—joyful, grateful, and excited for what lay ahead. Their first dance was filled with emotion and grace, capturing the essence of their connection. It was followed by touching toasts from loved ones who shared stories of childhood, growth, and the love that had brought Scott and Britta to this day.

One of the most touching moments of the reception came during a quiet pause between dances. Scott and Britta took a moment to look around the room—to take in their people, their story, and their love. That simple act of reflection reminded everyone that weddings are not just about one day, but about the lifetime they launch.

The dance floor opened and quickly filled with guests of all ages celebrating the night away. The music, laughter, and clinking glasses made the evening feel like a true celebration of love, family, and community.

Capturing Scott & Britta’s wedding day was an absolute honor. Their love is gentle and strong, rooted in faith, and expressed in the kindness they show to everyone around them. Their day was not only beautiful—it was a reflection of who they are together.
