amy & alec - october 28, 2006

it's been an amazing october. five great weddings and five great couples. i couldn't think of a better grand finale than amy and alec's wedding. their ceremony was held at the incredible wooddale church in eden prairie, and their reception was held at the golden valley country club. amy wore one of the most beautiful wedding gowns i have ever seen. (for those who love wedding dress & pop culture trivia, this was the same monique lhuillier design that the singer pink wore when she married carey hart...)

a simply stunning bouquet:

just as they entered the church, the sun came from behind the clouds and illuminated the bride and her dad:


their vows were very touching, with some tears and laughter:
