High school sweethearts Alexa and Ryan grew into themselves and their love together, enjoying traveling, competitive board games and supporting each other's passions and interests throughout their ten-year relationship. Once they changed their relationship status to "Engaged," the pair moved from Minnesota to Wisconsin, where their nuptials would be held on the picturesque grounds of Fête. Opting for a traditional wedding day, a black-and-white palette set the tone for intimate elegance with modern details woven throughout. Alexa wore a strapless gown adorned with tiny petal-like lace with her long dark hair styled in loose, romantic waves while her bridesmaids wore an array of black silk and chiffon dresses. Before the ceremony, Ryan and Alexa shared their first look and exchanged private vows, which was an aspect of the day they couldn't recommend more to engaged couples planning their weddings, as it gave them a private moment and having captured their couple portraits allowed them to enjoy cocktail hour with their friends and family later in the day. White petals lined the grassy aisle leading to an organic wooden altar with dreamy drapery framing the couple as they became husband and wife. Celebratory signature cocktails, Old Fashioneds and Dirty Shirleys were served with commemorative charms during cocktail hour before modern geometric signage led guests to the reception. Wanting to experience their wedding day revelry to its maximum capacity, Alexa and Ryan told their guests if they wanted to see or talk to them during the evening, "You better get on the dance floor, because that's where we'll be."
