Daniel & Juan 02-02-19

They actually lived across the street from one another on the University of Minnesota Campus. Danny was finishing his first year of medical school and Juan had just moved to MN a few months before from Miami.

The Proposal

Wedding Inspiration "Simple, elegant, modern, navy blue and burgundy, winter, snow, Minnesota winter"

Favorite Wedding Memory "Our personalized M&M's with our picture, having our dog Molly at the ceremony, Danny's best person's speech/toast, dancing to "It's Raining Men" after the spotlight dances"

D.I.Y. Details "We created our own centerpieces with supplies from craft stores. Got candles, stones, small vases, and decorative branches and organized them all on a charger plate. Also made the two large vases that flanked us in the ceremony using fake flowers and twigs we got at IKEA. Created name card holders by cutting a slit into a wine cork and super-gluing a line of glue on the cork for a "stand" so it would not fall over. Also created our own dessert toppers with a Cricut machine. "

& a Word of Advice... "Simple is always best because on the day of, there is so much going on that it helps to not have complex, intricate details to execute! It also helps to have dedicated people who deal with the details and questions that come up with on your special day. It is much more fun to delegate tasks in the getting ready room with a glass of champange, rather than running around yourself setting out fires."
