Palladium | Semple Mansion Wedding Photos
This past Saturday Graddy Photography covered Barb & Jim's wedding at the Semple Mansion. Barb & Jim have been so amazing to work with and we are very thankful for their business. Funny thing, Barb actually contacted us before she was actually engaged to have us do her wedding and as soon as she was engaged, she was on the phone with us shortly thereafter. The Semple Mansion provided a beautiful setting for some getting ready pictures. Then it was off to Mt. Olivet Church in Minneapolis for the ceremony itself. After a great ceremony with lots of laughs, it was back to the Semple Mansion for the cocktail hour and reception. Thanks so much once again Barb & Jim, I had a great time working with you both. Great job to all the other vendors that made this wedding such a great success especially Instant Request (Nate) and Ashley Fox Designs for the flowers and arrangements. Have a great honeymoon guys!

Reunion | St Anthony Main Event Center Wedding
This past Saturday Nate & Nikki had their wedding reception at the St. Anthony Main Event Center in Minneapolis. Nate & Nikki were married just earlier this fall in Mexico and decided to have their reception back home with the rest of their family and friends. I was approached by Nate to cover his wedding and coincidentally he covered Chrissy & I's wedding almost seven years ago. Nate might be a familiar face to some of you, he's one of Instant Request's DJ's and one of the very best DJ's in the city. We were very honored to be a part of their wedding reception. We'll be sure to see him again in the field. As a matter of fact we'll see him next weekend as we are working together for Alyson & Nate's wedding at the Calhoun Beach Club. Thanks so much guys, we had a blast and we wish you both the very best! Thanks for choosing Graddy Photography!
