A Surprise Wedding in St. Paul, Minnesota

Share

Meet Alex and Jessica. Let me tell you, they had a super awesome wedding because it was a SURPRISE wedding! The guests thought they were attending a surprise birthday party for Jessica. When Jessica arrived to the “party”, Alex got down on one knee to propose (this was all part of the plan!). Of course Jessica accepted but rushed away. She returned moments later and  passed out invitations to their wedding which was happening 30 minutes later at nearby Indian Mound Park in St. Paul, Mn.
Every detail of their wedding day was unique, custom and genuine. Jessica handmade her wedding dress. I still can’t get over how fabulous the green tulle is. Alex’s suit was also custom from Heimie’s Haberdashery and was topped of by Alex’s trademark bowler hat.
