Kara and Jesse.......Happily married as husband and wife.
So much in love!
And I couldn't be happier for them :)
They got married at St. Mark's Cathedral in Minneapolis. Gorgeous! The bells chimed for a good 15-20 minutes after the ceremony. Such a pretty sound!
Their reception immediately followed at Windows, on the 50th floor of the IDS Center. What a cool place, especially at night! They had cocktails and Hors d' Oeuvres in one big room for an hour or so until dinner was called, then they shifted us all to the dining room.
Dinner was excellent! The choices had been walleye, chicken or filet mignon. Filet all the way for me, baby! I was so full from dinner but I had to try the cake...amazing! There was one of these on every table.
We ate the cake while watching Kara & Jesse's wedding video....pics of each of them growing up and then pics of them together. Very cute! The
After dinner we shifted back to the room we had been in earlier where the bars and dance floor were set up. Dancing and drinking all night long! Fun times.
I took too many pictures to put them all in this post, but they can all be viewed here: Kara and Jesse wedding pictures.
Two of the coolest features of the night were the chocolate fountain
and the Photo Booth. Mary and I were lucky enough to catch Kara when it was our turn so that she was able to jump in with us!
Not only did they have a fairy-tale wedding, they are also leaving tomorrow for a fairy-tale honeymoon. Two weeks in Italy and then two weeks in Fiji.
Congratulations, guys! xoxoxoxo
Gorgeous wedding! So glad for your friends!
