A fun Urban Daisy wedding with Emily + Grant in one of the best modern and industrial wedding venues in Minneapolis.

Oh, to be able to live in this gorgeous day with Laura + Scott once more.
Oh, waaaait—
That’s what blog posts like this one are for. Ya ready for this?

This is going to be the blog that convinces you to host a simple and sweet backyard wedding, I just know it.
(It’s also going to make you want to hire all the all-star vendors that contributed. I know this too, for I know them to be the best.)

Can I tell you what’s inspiring?

(Sure, Hutton House might seem like the obvious pick, although that’s not what I’m thinking here.)

It was the kind of thing you always hope to hear when you’re talking with a couple before their wedding…

A wedding unlike any other.
(Truth.)

Let’s dig right into the highlights, featuring a few of the many things I absolutely adored about Ace and Courtney’s wedding.

They say rain on your wedding day is good luck… but how about we update that old adage to reflect our modern times in 2020?

If this looks like a super fun wedding, you’re right.

I’d just like to state for the record that before 2020 necessitated the shifting of wedding plans, I’ve always been a firm believer in the power of a backyard wedding. Shelby + Kyle’s wedding on one perrrrfectly glorious October Saturday only furthers that feeling.

Ready to be sucked into some joy?
I KNOW YOU ARE!

This may read like My Favorite Things by Julie Andrews but I want you to set it to the tune of The Best by Tina Turner.
(Then turn that mental hum up reeeeal loud when the couple makes their grand entrance into their reception, as that was the song we were all cheering, clapping, and jamming to.)

I wonder when Nils and his family moved into this house years ago if they ever imagined that he’d grow up to marry his dream girl Kayla in the backyard? Because that’s exactly what happened last month.
