My Dress


Bought my wedding dress about two weeks ago at The Wedding Shoppe! It was the first gown I tried on, and the moment I stepped out of the dressing room we all knew that it was the one! Thanks to my friend Jessica and my Beautiful mommy for helping me out and paying for my dream gown. It is so beautiful! And absolutly perfect for me! Maybe you will be lucky enough to see me wearing it at my wedding!

Evolution of our Love

Ceremony Cite: Northwestern Chapel



Chapel Setting
The beautiful combination of green, auburn, white and gray marble is the perfect setting for any wedding style. Stained glass windows, a high arched ceiling, and white wooden pews and furnishings complete this elegant setting.




History
Nazareth Hall was built in 1921. It was owned by the Minneapolis/St. Paul Archdiocese, and was a seminary preparing boys to enter the Roman Catholic priesthood. The chapel was constructed of materials from all over the world to show the universality of the church. The auburn Numidian marble walls are from the Pope’s quarry in Africa and were shipped in matching pairs. The white pillars from Italy were the third set of pillars shipped. The first set was cracked during shipment, and the second set was lost at sea. The stained glass windows portray 18 scenes from the Bible. The windows on the right depict eight Old Testament scenes and the windows on the left show ten New Testament scenes. Northwestern College purchased the property in 1970
