Minnesota Wedding | Cody and Jenna | Winehaven Winery

On the morning of Cody and Jenna’s wedding, the forecast was for rain showers starting in the afternoon.  Jenna had fallen in love with Winehaven Winery when she first toured it and had dreamed of having a beautiful outdoor wedding in the midst of the vineyard, overlooking the pond.  It seemed like that wasn’t going to be possible.  We moved pictures up a little to be able to fit those in outside before the rain.  And then our prayers were answered and the rain went around us!  It was absolutely perfect with the Fall colors just starting to show. The white chairs in the middle of the rows of vines and the beautiful floral covered arbor made for a breathtaking setting. Winehaven is seriously a stunning venue!

Everything could not have gone smoother.  From the adorable bubble blowing ring bearer to the personalized vows and the amazing family and friends who came to celebrate with Cody and Jenna, I feel pretty safe in saying it was their dream come true.  Five years earlier they had first met, and now five years later they said “I do” to starting their life together.  Cody and Jenna, may life be full of many more days just as magical as this one.  XOXO
