WEDDING: July 18, 2020

Sydney Dotty and Tony Umland met one evening when a mutual friend invited her to hang out at Tony's cabin, where they bonded over games and music. In 2019, after planning it for weeks, Tony led Sydney off a trail at Elm Creek Park Reserve in Maple Grove. Awaiting them, he had a romantic picnic with champagne and flowers—the perfect setting to pop the question. For their big day, they had their ceremony at St. Christopher’s Catholic Church because faith is an important part of their lives. Then they took the party over to Blacksmith Main to fulfill their dreams of vintage elegance. With a theme of navy, olive and pops of pink, Blacksmith Main was transformed with dusty rose blooms, for a vision that exceeded their expectations. In lieu of a traditional cake, they opted for macarons so that guests could easily grab the hand-held snack whenever they wanted. To top off the evening was a late-night snack of walking tacos, which guests raved about.
