bruentrup farm wedding | chris & anne [married!] | maplewood wedding photographer

A mid-October day at Bruentrup Heritage Farm in Maplewood, MN was the perfect backdrop for Chris and Anne to become husband & wife. Arriving to sunshine, the bride and her bridesmaids were in the farmhouse getting all dolled up and sipping on some bubbly. Meanwhile, Chris and his groomsmen got ready and cracked some jokes in the basement of the barn. I loved all of Anne's details for the day - from the sparkly Swavorski crystal earrings, to her bright bouquet, and all the way down to the adorable cowgirl boots she adores. The inside of both Chris & Anne's wedding rings include an inscription and each other's birthstones; does it get much sweeter than that? After Anne slipped into her ball gown from Posh Bridal with just the right amount of poof, it was time for the first look out in front of the big red barn! These two were so excited to see each other - and good thing we had tissues ready. While taking portraits of the couple, the sun even peeked out! Of course, Chris & Anne's three pups also had to get in on some photos, the ladies with flowers and gentleman Cashius with a little bow tie. The bridesmaids and groomsmen then joined us for some group photos, along with the adorable flower girl and ring bearer who had a blast taking part in the festivities. We snuck in a few family portraits before it really started to rain. Thankful for good timing! Then it was off to the barn for the beautiful wedding ceremony with the twinkle light backdrop. Anne looked stunning walking down the aisle to her groom! There were lots of laughs shared when Chris dropped Anne's ring before placing it on her finger. After the I Do's, I whisked the newlyweds off for a few "just married" photos under the cover of the farmhouse porch while the barn got switched to the reception set up. We sat down to a wonderful meal of smoked brisket and pulled pork, made by none other than the groom! It was delicious! The speeches from the best man and maid of honor were heartful and touching, along with a speech by Chris's dad who looked at Anne and announced, "Finally!" Chef Chris then decided it was time to get his bride a fresh glass of champagne by opening the bottle of bubbly with a knife! The cork of that bottle made for a unique ring photo. Then it was time to dance the night away under the twinkle lights in the barn. Congratulations, Chris & Anne! Cheers to love, laughter, and happily ever after!
