There are SO many pictures that we love but here are a few of our favorites. If you want to see all of the pictures, let us know and we can send you the snapfish link for printable copies.









There are so many other great pictures of family, friends, the ceremony, reception and dance but WAY to many to post on here (much like the honeymoon pictures, I see a trend). Thank you so much to everyone who was part of the wedding and who traveled to be with us. We had such an amazing day and hope everyone else did too!!

The wedding pictures are in…kind of. You can see them online at pictage: http://www.pictage.com/client/event.do?event=704509 right now but we don’t have the CD with all of the images yet (it should be here by the end of the week). As soon as we have the image files, I will upload them to snapfish which will be a much cheaper option. So if you want to order any pictures, just send me an email case0149@umn.edu and I will send you the invite to the snapfish page as soon as they are uploaded. We will also hopefully post some of our favorites up on this site by the end of the week so if you don’t want to scroll through ALL of the pictures (there are over 700) you can check back in a few days!

Hi everyone! We hope you will all be able to join us for a pre-wedding celebration on Friday night after the rehearsal dinner. The entire wedding party and immediate family will be doing our rehearsal dinner at Nye’s Polonaise Room at 5:15 and we would love everyone to join us for dessert and polka dancing at about 7:30pm.
We will provide cakes from the famous Cafe Latte for dessert and Nye’s will have the “Worlds Most Dangerous Polka Band” and “Sweet” Lou Snider at the piano bar. Local and national magazines have ranked Nye’s as one of the best bars in America with great live music!
Nye’s is about 1 mile from the reception site and just across the river from downtown Minneapolis. We hope to see everyone there!

I know I always say this but I really cannot believe that the wedding is only two weeks away. It seems like just yesterday that I was saying 100 days to go. A few things happened this week that really made the wedding seem real. First of all our marriage license came in the mail! It just seems so official and it really hit home. The other thing that was really crazy was ordering the escort cards with my name as Mrs. Laura Cook. Wow!!! I can’t wait to see everyone and have a wonderful day.

Hey everyone, just a reminder to book your hotel rooms in the next few weeks. Next week they will reduce the block of rooms by half so book asap! There are still rooms left at both The Grand Hotel and The Hotel Minneapolis for a group rate of $99/night. For more information on the hotels, see the Guest Information tab of this website. We can’t wait to see you in less than 6 weeks!

We found out yesterday that the hotel we had booked in Zanzibar would be closing down early this year! There is always a shortage of electricity on the island and those smaller resorts without their own generators must often close throughout certain months of the year. So, after looking through reviews of MANY different hotels on Zanzibar, we decided to instead book an oceanside room at the Breezes Hotel and Spa. As a slightly bigger resort, it will have a different feel than the smaller island oases but we think that might be ok after 5 days on a safari staying at the more rustic lodges. We updated the honeyfund registry to reflect our change. I think although it was a bit of a hassle it will be wonderful and it made me even more excited for our honeymoon! I’ve been spending so much time thinking about the wedding, the honeymoon often seems like it is so far away but now I’m excited about it all over again!
