As a professional wedding photographer, Tricia Eagan has explored many Minnesota venues inside and out. When it came time to pick the locale for her own wedding to Aaron Burtzel, the criteria were simple: It had to be at a spot she had never worked and it had to be unique. They chose the top floor of the Solar Arts building for its cool, industrial feel and its ability to be transformed into something fun. “We wanted our guests to leave having the best time and remember the day for the good music, delicious food and fun speeches,” Tricia says. The food was casual and whimsical—think burgers, cotton candy, and a 10-foot-long dessert table—and that sugar high had everyone kicking up their heels. “The dance floor was crowded the entire night,” Tricia says. “It was the perfect celebration of our marriage with the people we love the most.”
