Both Teddy and Sophia had mutual friends in high school, but the two had never crossed paths until their senior year. She started crushing on him at the start of the year and they finally talked to each other on Halloween. Clicking right away, the two began talking and a few weeks later went on their first date.
Since then, they graduated from high school and both attended the University or Minnesota where they both studied, made lifelong friends and gained priceless memories. Sophia and Teddy have traveled to California, Oregon, Texas, Maine, Colorado, Illinois and Utah together.
In the winter of 2020, Teddy and Sophia went to his parents cabin. On the morning of New Years Eve, Teddy woke Sophia up early. After going on a walk and taking a dip in the the sauna, he suggested she take a little nap. Little did she know that while she was napping, he was setting up the proposal. When she woke up, Sophia walked out to the living room where she saw candles, flowers and Teddy in the middle of it all on one knee.
Having friends and family together again was so exciting for Sophia and Teddy and they were so happy to finally be able to celebrate with them. The Loft at Studio J was a perfect location for their April wedding day. This historic industrial building in the beautiful city of Stillwater was a perfect location for both indoor and outdoor photos. Sophia’s lace dress from A&Be Bridal was even more beautiful when paired with the sage bridesmaid dresses from Birdy Grey. Lakeside floral created the most incredible bouquets which held white and melon roses and a variety of greens . Around Sophia’s bouquet, a small pendant from her great grandmother who immigrated to America from Ireland was perfectly placed. Teddy and his groomsmen sported classic black suits with black ties from Atmosfere. Each beautifully decorated table was numbered with a photo of Sophia and Teddy at the age in which the table number was. A blank sheet of paper was also placed at each table so that together guests could write a letter for Sophia and Teddy to open at their future anniversaries. Bella Vida served a tasty meal while Cakealicious provided an incredible cake and sweet cupcakes for the guests. Joe from Day One DJ welcomed the couple and guests to the dance floor and the party began and did not stop until the night was over and there was even a guest song sung by Teddy’s uncle.
Sophia and Teddy, thank you for an incredible day and congratulations! I can’t wait to see where life takes you as you explore many more places together and celebrate your honeymoon in Italy and Greece. Happy wedding day!
