Wedding Wednesday: Engagement Photos!!!

Get ready for a picture overload! Now that our Save the Dates are sent I can finally share our engagement pictures with you! We took our pictures several different places around Minneapolis. It started as a beautiful afternoon and then turned super cold and super windy. But, with the help of our amazing photographer Sara Jayne and her fiance John we had a really fun time and hardly noticed the weather (hardly). I would love to show you all 150, but that may be over doing it. So, here are my favorites:

We started at the TCF Bank Stadium where my Minnesota Gophers play (and also where J proposed).










After the stadium we went to a super cool walking bridge on the U of M campus. Unfortunately, because of the wind my hair was super crazy in almost all of these, so I wasn't a hug fan. But, this one is AMAZING!


Next, we went to a really cool warehouse area near downtown Minneapolis.







By this time the wind was really becoming an issue, so we needed to find somewhere we could be covered and block the wind. We cam across a giant hole, not kidding, a huge hole. We decided to climb down and it turns out it was on old rotted railroad track that was somehow buried underground. Me and Sara were terrified we would fall through the rotting wood, but we were willing to do anything to get some amazing wind-free shots. Thank God we did, because these are some of my favorite shots from the whole day.






After "the hole" we were in need of a break. So, we headed downtown to our favorite restaurant Runyons for a cup of coffee and some dinner. It ended up being a great place to take some pictures! LOVE these!




We ended the day in St. Anthony Main which is a really cool part of the city right on the Mississippi River.
