Graddy Photography covered Steve and Brynn's amazing summer wedding this past July 22nd at Grand View Lodge in Nisswa, Minnesota.  As many of our fans know, Grand View Lodge is pretty much our home away from home with the commercial photography we provide for Grand View Lodge and weddings we cover for our clients.  Of course the weather was a perfect 82 degrees and sunny which made for a comfortable ceremony at the Grand Staircase.  Brynn and Steve currently reside in Manhattan but flew home to celebrate their union with all their family and friends and what better place to do that than at Grand View Lodge.  Thanks so much for choosing Graddy Photography as your Minnesota destination wedding photographer!

Just when I thought I'd have seen it all as a wedding photographer...enter Caitlin and Zach!  I guess I am most astonished at the fact that Caitlin wore her Mother's wedding dress with elements of her Grandmother's sewn into it....just goes to show what a sentimental and amazing person Caitlin is.  Zach, he's a pretty good guy too :)  We started the day with getting ready photos at her parents residence in Pequot Lakes with the ceremony soon following at St. Christopher's in downtown Nisswa, Minnesota.  After the ceremony we headed to Grand View Lodge for the reception and happy hour cruise.  Did I say cruise...well it was pretty much a cruise ship on Gull Lake, just take look!  After the amazing voyage around the lake we ended up at their reception in the Heritage Room at Grand View Lodge.  Pretty much a perfect wedding, all that needs to be said really.  So, THANK YOU Caitlin and Zach, what an incredible experience for me personally to be with you on your wedding day!  Cheers to many years of happy marriage, health, and success!

Well well here we are!  Courtney & John's amazing Grand View Lodge wedding.  What could be better than shooting in the Minnesota northwoods in the summer and having it be 80 degress and sunny.  Match that with an azaming couple and guests and you have a perfect wedding!  The day started off with getting ready pictures in the Gull Lake Center and then onto the couple's first sight.  From there, we headed around the resort for some great photo ops.  After that, the ceremony took palce next to the grand staircase with the reception to follow in the Gull Lake Room.  This was our fourth and final wedding of the year at Grand View Lodge and we will certainly miss it!  We cannot thank you guys enough for choosing Graddy Photography as your Brainerd wedding photographer, it was awesome!

This past Saturday Graddy Photography covered Mikayla & Mike's wedding at the one and only Grand View Lodge in Nisswa, Minnesota.  Grand View Lodge always provides such an amazing backdrop for a Minnesota north woods wedding.  Most of Mikayla and Mike's guests were from New York City, L.A., & Chicago so they chose Grand View Lodge in central Minnesota to create a genuine MN wedding experience.  Mikayla and her family have strong ties to the Brainerd Area of lakes as they have had a family cabin in the area for many years.  The ceremony took place in Grand View Lodge's new ceremony site located directly behind Italian Gardens restaurant.  The ceremony site was decorated beautifully by the wonderful Bloom Designs out of Brainerd.  After the ceremony the guests made it over to the Gull Lake Center for the wedding reception.  Thanks so much for choosing Graddy Photography, it was a real pleasure working with you both and all your amazing guests.....you guys nailed it!  Congrats once again and cheers!

This past Saturday was an eventful day to say the least.  Graddy Photography was up bright and early and ready to go to shoot Jennifer & Cris's wedding at the amazing Grand View Lodge in Nisswa, Minnesota right next to Brainerd.  Grand View Lodge is one our favorite places to shoot weddings.  As a matter of fact we will be shooting four weddings up there next year as of now.  Jennifer & Cris planned their wedding perfectly with a little help from the accomplished Nicole Sellers of Mother of the Bride event planning.  It always nice working with such a consummate professional who keeps everything on time and is always relaxed and calm.  The couple wrapped up with dinner by inviting their guests down to the beach for a little surprise......a fireworks show!  Thanks so much for including Graddy Photography in your wedding day plans, we are so thankful.  Also thanks to Nicki & Sarah, friends of mine from high school who referred their cousin Jennifer to us.
