What a beautiful day for Katy and Jeff's summer beach wedding on Gull Lake at Madden's Resort! When you call Madden's make sure you ask for Meredith to help you plan you wedding because she's terrific.

I met the girls at their cabin where they were getting ready, enjoying mimosas and music and sharing their stories about Katy: how they met, why they are friends, what they love about Katy. It was great fun.

Once we got the men's ties sorted out Katy, Jeff and I explored the resort for their engagement session before meeting up with their wedding party and family.

Jeff and the guys both arrived and departed the ceremony on a pontoon bringing the ladies with them on their way out. While they enjoyed a pontoon ride with cigars and champagne I shot the amazing details by Kate at Bloom Designs in the Wilson Bay's Pemican Room.

As always, the food at Madden's was amazing but as their guests were finishing dinner, I stole Jeff and Katy for a quick portrait session on the beach and docks of Gull Lake because those are some of the main reasons people host their wedding celebrations in the Brainerd Lakes Area.

As the light faded away outside, the band FlashMob! was heating up the dance floor as a terrific ending to an awesome wedding day.
