Everyone chooses to celebrate their love differently. And here, at Crooked Willow, we want to help you do just that! From full-size weddings with hundreds of people to micro weddings with closest family and friends, we do it all! MN micro weddings have the same access to our facilities that the larger weddings do. But there is something so personal and intimate about micro weddings. It’s just you and the people you love most! What’s better than that?
Richard and Jessica are one of our MN micro wedding couples! Read more of their beautiful story below!
Their Story
Richard and Jessica met online. Their very first date lasted eight whole hours! It was very clear that they had something special from the very beginning. And they’ve been together ever since!
The two got engaged on Valentine’s Day! (I mean, does it get more romantic than that?) Richard knew Jessica was not a fan of surprises, so he made sure to throw plenty of hints her way before he popped the question!
The couple married in our barn on a sunny August day, on a Monday in fact! The week leading up to the wedding was cloudy and overcast; but the sky opened right up for their special day! It was perfect! It was obvious that family is number one in their lives. The entire day was full of love and laughter!
Their Theme
Jessica claims that red is her favorite color; but Richard argues that its pink! After all, he knew they HAD to have pink in the wedding, and they did! The soft pinks throughout were absolutely gorgeous! And their arbor was beyond stunning! (see the photos below) Both Jessica and Richard wanted a very simple wedding surrounded by their closest people. And that is exactly what they did! In their words, it was “perfect”.
Their Takeaways
The couple both loved the big sign we have set up for each couple as they drive in the day of their wedding. They also mentioned how much they loved both the bridal and groom’s suites on site, as well as all of the photo locations on the grounds. Most importantly, they were so relieved that everything came together so well, that they were able to fully enjoy their day!
Congratulations you two! We wish you many years of married bliss! We are honored to have been a part of your perfect day!
