When Amanda and Bret got engaged in January of 2020, they had no idea that a global pandemic would stop them from tying the knot on New Year’s Eve later that year. Much like many other couples all over the world, the couple was forced to postpone their wedding. Luckily, they didn’t have to give up their dream of having an NYE celebration.
With the help of planner This Love Weddings, the two said “I do” hours in a ceremony complete with candles and cafe lights galore, hanging florals and greenery, and small winter touches like wreaths and Christmas trees. The reception at The Varsity Theater that followed featured art deco signage, faux snow, and gilded gold details. Once the clock struck midnight, the newlyweds and all of their friends and family gathered in a circle to sing “Auld Lang Syne” and kick-off 2022 in one of the most memorable ways possible. From the emotional first look to the snowy portraits in the heart of a Minnesota storm, Junebug member Adrian Steinbach did an amazing job of capturing all of the details of this vintage-inspired affair.
