The Neu Neu Event Center is a great venue in the Minneapolis warehouse district.

      I met Stacy when I was working as the staff photographer at Girl’s Rock Camp and was so excited to photograph her and Mary’s wedding! It was a day full of love, inclusion, family and music!

      As told by Stacy and Mary

      How did you meet and fall in love?

      We met through mutual friends at Hell’s Kitchen (Pride Weekend). We lived over an hour apart at the time, so our relationship developed slowly through phone calls, messages, and weekend visits.

      How did you choose your venue?

      Stacy had played music at Corner Coffee in the past and knew of the building (with the warehouse space for rent, called the Neu Neu Event Center) through the coffee shop. We wanted something non-traditional where we had control over what food, music, etc. went into the event.

      Thoughts leading up to your wedding day?

      A lot of thoughts about getting everything taken care of in time!

      What was your favorite part of the day?

      We loved getting ready together (with our moms too), and the ceremony. (this was also my favorite part of the day, especially when Stacy sang to Mary)

      What is each of your favorite images from your wedding? What makes it your favorite?

      We both love them all, and how the energy and love of the day/evening were captured.

      Is there anything that you would change?

      Mary says she wishes we would’ve brought containers for leftover food (to be able to bring leftovers home).

      What is your best advice to anyone planning a wedding?

      Try to stay true to what just the two of you want your celebration to be, and not allow outside influences to dictate everything.
