Basilica + Saint Paul Hotel Wedding Photography | Daniel + Divya

By Joanna Carina

Basilica + Saint Paul Hotel Wedding

Daniel + Divya met when they were at college in Atlanta. Once they were engaged, they decided they would like to settle down in Daniel’s hometown of the Minneapolis area. While Daniel moved back to the Cities, Divya was still located down South all while planning their wedding. It made things a little tough, but they were able to organize a beautiful Basilica of St Mary wedding and Saint Paul Hotel wedding reception, nonetheless!

Basilica of Saint Mary Wedding

Their day started at the Basilica of St Mary in Minneapolis. Even though it was raining, the church gave just enough cover for a great First Look location right out the gorgeous front doors! We then headed indoors for Basilica wedding family portraits on the stunning altar.

Saint Paul Hotel Wedding Reception

After their beautiful ceremony, we headed over to the Saint Paul Hotel for Daniel + Divya’s wedding reception. While the guests mingled in the James J Hill Room during cocktail hour, Daniel + Divya spent a few minutes with me taking couple portraits on the regal Saint Paul Hotel staircase, underneath the stunning crystal chandelier.

Following their portraits, the two of them headed into the James J Hill Room to applause from family and friends. Their cocktail hour was followed by dinner and a warm toast from Daniel’s father. They enjoyed a fun cake cutting too.

Thank You!

Daniel + Divya, thank you so much for choosing to work with me as your Minneapolis wedding photographer. It was so great meeting you and seeing your happiness on your big day. I wish you the best in your new lives together!

Minneapolis Depot and Basilica Wedding Photography | Lindsey + Bernie

By Joanna Carina

Minneapolis Depot and Basilica Wedding

I originally met Bernie over a year prior when I photographed his best friend Tim’s wedding (Tim and Jamie were married in May 2016). So of course I was elated when Lindsey + Bernie decided to work with me for their Minneapolis wedding photography too. They were planning an amazing Basilica wedding and Depot wedding reception, and I was so excited!

Our first step was to start with their Father Hennepin Bluff Park and Stone Arch Bridge engagement photography. They loved the area for its combination of classic Minneapolis beauty and touch of nature.

Minneapolis Depot Wedding

The day of their wedding began at The Depot at the Minneapolis Renaissance Hotel. Once their prep work was complete, the two of them held a private moment to read cards they had written to each other and finally have their first look in a quiet corner of The Depot. Afterward, we headed into the lobby of The Depot for more couple photos and spending time together thinking about what was to come. We then headed off to the Stone Arch Bridge for some time photographing the entire wedding party together, both on the Stone Arch as well as in the St Anthony Main area.

Basilica of St Mary Wedding

We continued on to the Basilica of St Mary for their family photos and a few others before their amazing wedding ceremony took place. Such a grand and beautiful location! And finally, we headed back to the Depot for cocktail hour, dinner, toasts and dancing the night away.

Thank You!

Lindsey + Bernie, thank you so much for including me as your wedding photographer on one of the most important days of your lives. I’ve enjoyed getting to know you, and am so happy for you both as you begin your new lives together!

Take a look at some of my other Basilica of St Mary wedding photos too!
