Amy and Kevin
You'd never guess that a woman who handles the finances of a major online university would be so incredible creative. Amy put together an absolutely stunning presentation for her guests. And not only for the reception, but the room at the Westin where the rehearsal dinner was held was drop-dead gorgeous. To top it off, each guest received a personalized gift.
And let's not forget about our terrific groom Kevin. I'm not sure if I've ever seen him wear anything but a great big genuine smile. For anyone looking for a family physician that you can feel very comfortable with, let me know 'cuz this guy is like a dream come true.
Even with the chaos that came the week of the wedding, like a broken water pipe that flooded Amy's basement and a hail storm that wasn't too friendly to one of their cars, Kevin and Amy seemed to truly enjoy every moment of their day.
The Slideshow!
The details:
- Amy's dress was from The Dressmaker of Edina
- The tuxedos were rented from Savvi Formalwear
- The wedding planner was the great Tom Clemens. Unfortunately, as amazing as he is, he only plans events for Capella University; this event was done as a gift to the bride.
- The flowers were arranged by Summer at Stems and Vines
- Buttercream made the wedding cake
- The Depot provided the elegant hall and catering
- The string players were Woodfire Quartet
- Last but not least, the incredible soloists during the ceremony, and I mean incredible, were Linda Muehlbauer and Don (sorry, I don't have his last name).

An Historic Wedding
When I met Tom at Amy and Kevin's wedding less than two weeks ago, I had no idea that I would be photographing his wedding yesterday! Tom and his partner Kelly have been together for 10 years and have discussed the idea of getting married more than once. After listening to the speech that Kevin gave to his new wife, family and friends (which was wonderful and the whole room in tears), Tom whispered to Kelly, "We need to do this."
Three days later, Tom emails me saying they were headed to San Francisco in one week to get married on the first full day when same-sex marriages would become legal (some counties allowed couples to get married at 5:01P.M. the evening before), and was wondering if I could help them find a photographer in San Francisco. I was thrilled and said absolutely! After getting some details, I looked at my schedule and thought "wait a second! maybe they'd allow ME to photograph their wedding!" I had never photographed a same-sex wedding, and being a part of history in the making was a very exciting thought. Low and behold, Tom was said they'd be happy to have me document their day.
It was a 24 whirlwind of a trip. I took the red-eye to CA on Monday night, hung out and photographed Tom and Kelly all morning, had lunch with them and their witnesses, Lisa and Holly, in Salcilito, then went back to downtown San Francisco, found a coffee shop and sat there for a few hours to edit and process images to send to the Star Tribune who was running a story about their wedding for the next day's paper. We all met back for dinner at a killer restaurant called Destino, then headed to airport around 10P.M. for the red-eye back to Minneapolis this morning.
I want to tell you all about the wedding, but I see this is getting lengthy, so check out Tom and Kelly's blog to learn about it from the newlyweds themselves. Also check out Pam Louwagie's story in today's Star Tribune.
Check out this clip of the ceremony from a San Francisco news program.
