Isn't it funny how things work out sometimes?! 

When looking for a wedding venue, we came across the Minnesota Boat Club. We loved it, but wasn't sure if it would work since they had limited availability. We decided to wait another year to get married and got the date we wanted at the Boat Club! We thought it was a very fitting venue since they row out of there, and that's how we met! ~Sarah Portmann

Saint Paul Hotel {Erika & Tyler Published}

Tyler and Erika first met on a blind date. "We met... for dinner-- shared food, wine and stories," described Erika. "We didn't want [the night] to end, so we walked on Summit looking at the historic homes on a chilly October night, and we stopped for dessert. We are now living right off of Grand in St. Paul... and often take the same 'stroll' as we did on our first date. After our second date, TJ (Tyler John) made up a hashtag-- #adventuresofeeejandteej. This stuck with us... every date, cooked dinners and experiences together we put it in our own little digital photo book."

The couple was engaged six months after their first date, and were married in June at the Catholic church at St. Catherine University, with their reception at the elegant Saint Paul Hotel. Photographed by Erin Johnson, details and decor were kept classic and elegant. "I wanted white flowers to keep it simple and fresh, but with the added the element of mixed metals to keep it modern," said the bride.

We just love hearing about how our couples met, and this is adorable! 

"We were just two normal people living our lives as we pleased. I, Megan, was still going to school up in Duluth MN and serving at Texas Roadhouse. Daniel was living in Watersmeet MI hunting and working. One of Dan's best friends is dating a wonderful friend of mine who I was working with at Texas Roadhouse. They went to a wedding up north together and that's when my good girlfriend met Dan. That night I received a text from her saying "I FOUND THE PERFECT GUY FOR YOU". My first thought was..."oh boy...". She tried to convince us to go on a blind date, but both Dan and I were against that. I did say that if he was ever in town, I would be happy to meet him casually in a group... He showed up the very next weekend..."
