Alyssa and Nick’s colorful concert-themed wedding day was such a joy to be a part of! Throughout their 18 month engagement, Nick and Alyssa hand-selected so many intentional details to create a fun, concert-themed wedding reception! From hand-illustrated portraits of their wedding party to a custom merch table with concert tees, posters, and shot glasses, the attention to detail was IMPRESSIVE!
Nick & Alyssa have such a FUN relationship – constant giggles, jokes, snuggles. They are clearly absolutely head over heels in love with each other. They make my job real easy 😉
We began the day getting ready at Courtyard Marriott Minneapolis. Alyssa also hired Dream Day Dressing Rooms to decorate the hotel conference room they were getting ready in! That was such a lovely touch and brought a lot of personality! Once Nick and Alyssa had their first look, we hopped on a shuttle to Saint Anthony Main for photos! It was a beautiful sunny summer day. The wedding party’s candy pink dresses and bright blue suits really popped off the greenery!
Nick and Alyssa had their ceremony outdoors at Courtyard beside a beautiful brick wall covered in vines. Many happy tears were shed! They made their ceremony arch by hand, and Florology created gorgeous, colorful florals to adorn it. After their ceremony, we moved inside where guests enjoyed cocktails, appetizers, and all of their customized merch-themed favors! Their reception was beautiful. It featured bright floral centerpieces, a custom neon sign behind their sweetheart table and unique playlist table numbers! We ended the night on the dance floor thanks to the wonderful talent of Bluewater Kings Band.
Enjoy married bliss, Nick and Alyssa!
