I’m always so happy when I book a wedding at Aria! Sadie and Jon were wonderful to work with and Aria is one of the most beautiful venues in Minneapolis! I love it when I can indulge my love of architecture with a great wedding.

      As told by Sadie

      How did you meet and fall in love?

      Jon and I worked together for two years and became friends and eventually realized that we were interested in being more than just friends and started dating. We knew from the very beginning that we were meant to be.

      How did you choose your venue?

      Aria had always been my dream venue so we didn’t even look at any other options. When you know, you know!

      What was your favorite part of the day?

      The ceremony. Our best friend Nick officiated our wedding which made it so personal and special. We also wrote our own vows which was a highlight for both of us.

      Is there anything that you would change?

      I would try not to stress over small details during the planning phase.

      What is your best advice to anyone planning a wedding?

      Focus on each other and don’t fixate on minor details. When the day comes you won’t even notice the difference. Soak in every moment of the day – it FLIES by.
