Jessica and Ben met online but didn’t quite rush into a date until awkwardly running into each other at a local grocery store wearing matching wool fedoras. After the encounter, their relationship quickly evolved as they enjoyed bike rides, picnics, dinners, dancing, and games of pool. They continue to enjoy the small things that brought them together, and are excited for their journey ahead. Unfortunately, Jessica and Ben had a curveball thrown into their wedding plans. Cue the pandemic. Like many other couples, they had to make the decision to downscale their original wedding plans. Instead, Jessica and Ben chose to have a more intimate wedding with just their immediate families at Rivertown Inn in Stillwater, MN. It’s not easy to have to uninvite family and friends from such a special day, so they decided to host a virtual toast via Zoom after the ceremony. I absolutely loved this idea- it was such a neat way to include those who were no longer able to join in-person to celebrate this wonderful couple! Another great idea? Custom wedding face masks to help keep themselves and their guests safe!
