Katie & Zach’s wedding day was nothing short of romantic, choosing three spectacular venues in the Delafield area. Beginning with getting ready at the historic Delafield Hotel, followed by the architectural charm of Noble Victory Memorial Chapel and grounds at St. John’s Northwestern Academies. Later they celebrated with loved ones at the picturesque Chenequa Country Club, overlooking the same lake Katie grew up, during our sunset photos Katie excitedly pointed out their home directly across the lake. Loved ones’ speeches carried the way through their plated dinner, and Katie and Zach did not have a lack of kind words about them – they are simply adored by all their family and friends, as is anyone who has the privilege of coming across their path!

Their story of meeting was love at first swipe! After visiting his brother in San Francisco, Zach was patiently waiting at the airport for his flight back home to Nebraska when he first met Katie. It was here that they buzzed into each other’s lives. Although Katie’s life was in Minnesota and Zach was finishing his doctorate in Nebraska, they endured the distance. They spent long weekends together and short ones apart, but made sure that the weekends apart to still binge-watch shows “together”.

Many of their dating days involved long drives back and forth from Nebraska to Minnesota , even during brutal midwest winters, but Zach says “falling in love with Katie was the easiest thing I’ve ever done.” And with the help of one of Katie’s best friends, and with all their closest friends present on the shores of Lake Minnetonka, Zach decided to ask Katie to marry him.
