Golf Course Summer Wedding | Kelsey + Jon | Minnesota Wedding Photographer

A Summer Wedding

Our story with Kelsey and Jon started eight months ago. Jon was the best man in his brothers wedding. It was a wedding that we got to photograph on a beautiful October day. And though we went home disappointed knowing that we were already booked on their summer wedding date, all good things seem to work out when they’re meant to be. So after a wedding date and venue change, we got to be a part of Kelsey and Jon’s day. How cool is that?! Things must’ve been meant to be!

The Story of Kelsey and Jon

The story of Kelsey and Jon began much, much sooner than that. In fact, they were in the same homeroom in 4th grade. And all those years came to a culmination on their wedding day. Their Aunt Teri officiated a ceremony that focused on choosing love each and every day. She said, “choose love every day. Choose love on the days it is easy to love (like today) and choose love especially on the days when you aren’t feeling quite as deeply as you are today.” And we couldn’t agree more. You have intentionally chosen each other for the last seven years and we wish you an eternity of choosing each other and the love you share between each other.

“I choose you to be my best friend,

my partner and my love.

I promise to encourage and support you,

to frustrate and challenge you,

and to love you truly through hard times and easy,

to be there to laugh with you,

and to lift you up when you are down.

I promise to be patient, kind, and respectful,

to work with you and grow with you,

knowing that together we will build a life

far better than either of us could imagine alone.

I promise to choose you and choose love

today and the rest of our tomorrows.”

Congratulations!

Kelsey and Jon, we love you two so much. You had an absolutely beautiful day, no matter the heat index. You were surrounded by friends and family that cherish you and your relationship. They support you and they cheer for you, in all the best ways. That support system will carry you through the highs and lows of marriage. From your personal vows, to the heartfelt toasts, this was a day to not forget. Congratulations, you two! We feel blessed to have been a part of this amazing day!
