Tyler and Sujata's Outdoor Minneapolis Wedding Reception

Get ready to witness an outdoor Minneapolis wedding reception full of love and color and vibrant community. Tyler and Sujata got married with a pair of mid-week Lutheran and Hindu wedding ceremonies, surrounded by their immediate family and wedding party. A few days later, they gathered their broader communities together for an epic outdoor reception at Gale Woods Farm.

There was such a joyful atmosphere at their wedding reception as Tyler and Sujata's families and friends came together to celebrate their marriage. At their wedding ceremonies a few days earlier, I had witnessed their Tyler and Sujata's families welcoming each other, sharing emotional moments and pictures with their new extended family. By the end of this wedding reception, their parents and aunts and friends and cousins were all dancing together, laughing together, truly celebrating. It was beautiful to see this couple's community literally joining together over the course of this wedding.

Tyler and Sujata's outdoor Minneapolis wedding reception day started off with some time set aside for portraits of the two of them. Already married at this point, they were so happy and relaxed and joyful and it was awesome. We found gorgeous spaces throughout Gale Woods Farm to use for portraits, and we were able to capture a mix of beautiful couple portraits along with capturing a mix of romantic calm moments, silly candid emotions, and detail shots of Sujata's beautiful henna and jewelry.

Ready to meet up with their families for some extended family portraits, Tyler and Sujata and I found a beautiful space for pictures at the edge of a grove of trees. It provided beautiful natural light for their family pictures and was a perfect mid-summer lush green. After capturing family portraits, we met up with their wedding party to adventure around the grounds together. Then Tyler and Sujata went to join their reception and I wandered through their awesome party, capturing candid moments between guests and the couple as they celebrated and danced throughout the night.

There were many amazing vendors that helped create this beautiful day!
