Emily + Tracy’s wedding was. by far, one of our favorite weddings to photograph this season. Emily works as an analyst, Tracy is a microscopist with a penchant for cameras, and together they’re foodies – so we had lots to talk about! In addition to these two being such a lovely and eloquent couple, check out their details, flawlessly executed with the help of Gretchen Culver over at Rocket Science Weddings… Emily + Tracy’s graphic concept for their invitations, table cards, and menus was designed by Tracy himself. The reception hall at Columbia Manor was dotted with large illuminated beakers and graduated cylinders. True to their classic inspired theme, music was provided by the Twin Cities Hot Club, a quintet modeled after the French Gypsy Jazz stylings of Django Reinhardt’s Hot Club de France.
Here’s a few detail notes for they guys out there… Emily + Tracy’s wedding ride was a well loved, albeit very rare, 1951 Kaiser Special 226. This inline-6 powered classic gets 25+ miles per gallon. That’s more mpg’s than most modern cars! And, fellas, check out Tracy’s derby hat, thoughtfully chosen for him by the gentlemen at Heimie’s Haberdashery. If you’re going to wear a hat, this is how it’s done right! There’s more to the right hat than reaching for the nearest black fedora.
And, lastly, one final detail… Tracy + Emily’s guestbook was Tracy’s vintage and perfectly functional Mac Classic. While this computer is over twenty years old, Tracy showed us how it is still able to connect to the web! This detail was near and dear to us at Camera Love as we’re proudly built on, and powered by, Apple. We wouldn’t have it any other way!
Emily + Tracy, we’re happy to have met you two! See you at the Farmers Market!
