Vibrant, Cozy Winter Wedding at Round Lake Farms

Jillian Reynolds was introduced to Evan Soderlund through their work at AriensCo Hospitality, so it was only fitting that this introduction led to a wedding at the company’s beautiful venue Round Lake Farms. Married on a near-freezing February day, the couple was a picture of classic elegance. Jillian was glowing in a satin off-the-shoulder gown and pearled veil and Evan was striking in a sleek black tux, both accented with the bright pinks and purples of the bride’s custom bouquet. Both bride and groom laughed joyously through their ceremony, aiming to savor every bit of their wedding day. Working in the wedding industry, Jillian and Evan were aware of how fast the celebration would fly by, so they made sure to carve time out of their day to slow down with each other over old fashioneds and relish in their love before meeting their guests for the reception. Adorned with an array of deep pinks, the reception space was warm and welcoming, featuring modern displays of candlelight and an abundance of scabiosa and ranunculus—the bride’s favorite flowers. Jillian made sure to pay special tribute to her mother and the women in her life by dancing to a childhood favorite song, “Somebody to Call My Lover” by Janet Jackson. Jillian’s parents would often use the phrase “it takes a village,” in reference to raising children, and the Soderlunds felt lucky to look around on their wedding day and see the village they had created celebrating their love alongside them.
