Industrial Romantic Wedding at the Northern Pacific Center

Weddings

In Brainerd, Minnesota, Lizzy and Connor had an industrial romantic wedding at the Northern Pacific Center. Lizzy is seriously one of the sweetest people you’ll meet. She and her sisters were full of smiles and laughter in the bridal suite while Connor and the guys were doing the same. It was an overcast day, with soft snowflakes falling, so we kept cozy inside most of the day.

Connor and Elizabeth met in the high school band room. Yep, they’re your classic high-school sweethearts—she played the flute, and he played the saxophone. Now, Connor is the Branding Manager and Co-Founder of Eufouric Brands, a family business. In his downtime, he indulges in his passion for racing at BIR with his new Camaro ZL1. Elizabeth, on the other hand, is a Lead RN at an ENT clinic and generously volunteers as a Nisswa Firefighter/First Responder, giving back to her community.

An Industrial Romantic Wedding Ceremony in Minnesota

They began their day preparing in the bridal suite, Le Leir, and the groom’s suite, Lincoln Lounge. The intimate ceremony was in the stunning 2 South space, where they opted for their first look while walking down the aisle! To determine who would read their vows first, they even decided with a playful game of rock-paper-scissors, a reflection of their daily decision-making as a couple. Their sand and stone unity ceremony involved all their closest family and friends. Tom, the Father of the Groom, officiated the ceremony, making it more personal. Lizzy also shared a special first look with her mother and honored her late father by placing his tie on his chair.

Their celebration continued at Luminary, where a family-style table awaited their guests for a cozy dinner together. The long table arrangement was beautiful and intimate. Cocktail hour followed, with more friends arriving to join in the celebration and dance the night away. Seeing everyone’s happy faces as they congratulated the newlyweds was heartwarming.
