Everything about the day was memorable but my two top highlights from the day (aside from the amazing weather) have to be: 1) The beautiful, heartfelt vows the brides wrote\u2026I seriously almost cried\u2026and\u00a02) When Aliya\u2019s veil blew off and almost fell into the Mississippi River!! Luckily, it stuck on the stucco of the bridge and my second shooter was able to grab it when the wind came up again. Talk about DRAMATIC!What can I say about this remarkable couple that I haven\u2019t already said in their engagement session blog? They are kind, caring, and perfect partners for each other! I constantly caught Taylor brushing Aliya\u2019s hair out of her eyes and both of the brides asking if the other needed anything.When I arrived at their wedding, both brides were getting ready at Hotel 340 in St. Paul, MN. Both were excited but I could tell there was an underlying layer of nerves. After a quick pep-talk about how amazing this day would be and how the hard work was already done and now it\u2019s time to party, they were all smiles. And after their first look (cue veil launching), they were ready to tie the knot!!I\u2019m so so so excited for Aliya and Taylor\u2019s future. In less than a month, they\u2019ll be moving across the country and making a new home in the Northeast. I\u2019m 100% confident when I say that Aliya and Taylor\u2019s future looks incredible and I look forward to visiting them when I travel!From the photograph, Laura Baker                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 EQUALITY-MINDED WEDDING VENDORSPhotographer: Lauren Baker PhotographyCeremony Location: Minnesota Boat ClubReception Venue: Minnesota Boat ClubCaterer: Mintahoe Catering & EventsInvitation Designer: MintedJewelry: Arthur’s JewelersDress Store: Posh bridal coutureMakeup Artist: Beauty By JacquelynCake Designer: Buttercream BakeryFloral Designer: Haute Flower BoutiqueSubmitted via Two Bright Lights"},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Minnesota wedding on the Mississippi River","item":"https:\/\/equallywed.com\/minnesota-wedding-on-the-mississippi-river\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
