kelly & don - november 25, 2006

it had been a few weeks since i was able to take pictures for a wedding, so kelly and don's big day came just in time to cure my wedding day withdrawl. they celebrated with their family and friends over the thanksgiving weekend, and it seemed very appropriate because they had a lot to be thankful for that day. there were many people who traveled to be with them, the weather was gorgeous for a minnesota november, and all their planning came to fruition and it was a very easygoing and relaxing day.

here are a couple favorite pictures of the happy couple:



kelly and don were actually brought together by their dental hygienist, who suggested that they might make a good couple. here is a cute picture of kelly getting ready that i am sure their matchmaker would approve of


some details of the dress:

here are the guys refining the art of hanging out:

since the church was decorated in a harvest theme, i thought this was kind of a fun ring shot:

sharing a laugh before the ceremony:

after the ceremony, we went to get some fun, casual shots. after many months of construction, the bridge at morehouse park in owatonna was opened, so we decided to check it out... and we weren't the only ones:
