First date jitters. They make you do crazy things. 

They made Joseph drive forward rather than in reserve on his first date with Molly. Clearly, everyone survived to make it to a second date, third date, right up to wedding date. The story is the stuff of their legend, though, and it shows through its multiple references during the course of the day,

Of course, Molly and Joseph, they smiled at each other and laughed each and every time it was mentioned. 

Those first date jitters were nowhere to be found on their wedding day. While many couples are consumed by nerves and stress and all things anxiety on their wedding day, these two truly went with the flow of excitement to finally be husband and wife. Nothing fazed them, nothing angered them; they were just ready to say “I do.”

And oh jeez, what an “I do.”

Southern Minnesota is big bluff country. Sacred Clay Country Inn in Lanesboro is home to a ceremony space that is dramatic on its own right, as it is situated in front of a stunning rock face. However, another speciality to this venue is the carriage ride. Talk about a moment–this is why Molly and Joseph saved their first look for when she popped out of that horse-drawn carriage, and it was epic.

Everything about this day really was, though.

Congratulations again, Mr. Mrs. Lakenan! I hope you are enjoying your THREE WEEK HONEYMOON!
