Elena & Doug

Wedding Date: April 13th 2019

So there is magic and then there is MAGIC! Harry Potter's wonderful world of dreams and mystery was the theme that started with our epic engagement at Hogwarts (St. Olaf College), and concluded along Minnehaha Falls and Como Park Conservatory's bonsai gardens. Every aspect was well planned out and would make any Harry Potter fan proud, from floating candles at the reception, to the marauders map as the program, and Elena decked out head to toe in nods to Harry Potter.More than anything, Elena cast an obvious spell on Doug years ago. She is pure goodness and her light shines through to those in her life tremendously. Together, this couple will write many new spells of their own and I hope we all take away a little of the magic they share.
