Minnesota Fall Wedding at the Braham Event Center

Minnesota Fall Wedding at the Braham Event Center

10.22.24

Kelsey and Eric have been together since December 1st, 2019, at 3:30 in the morning! They met at Charles Thompson Hall Deaf Club in Saint Paul, MN back in August of 2019. You read that right it took them 4 months of working together before they realized maybe there was something more to it. After 5 years together they had a Minnesota fall wedding at the Braham Event Center.

When Kelsey inquired with Complete Weddings + Events about wedding services, she wanted a Minnesota fall wedding at the Braham Event Center. Ari, our Director of Sales, reached out to Kelsey and was surprised to learn that Kelsey and Eric were both deaf. This was not a first for Ari; she knew exactly what to do. As soon as possible, she set up a Zoom meeting with closed captioning and proceeded to plan out photography, videography, photobooth, and DJ services. The stress that can be alleviated knowing you can get all of your services under one roof made this an enjoyable process, especially given the circumstances. Ari was Kelsey’s point of contact for most of the planning. This was not Ari’s first rodeo with a couple that was deaf, and she knew just how to make the day extra special. She ensured they had extra lighting to help them see the music as everyone danced along, as well as bass so they could feel the music. With a packed dance floor, they could certainly feel it!

Ari was not the only one with thoughts on how to make their day as special as possible. To top off the celebration, the bridal party planned a surprise confetti bomb as the couple kissed, creating a breathtaking moment. See for yourself!

It was a beautiful, yet crisp fall day and the venue had a bright and open indoor ceremony space that was easily transformed for the reception. The exterior space was also scenic, lined with birch trees in the back and a tall tunnel of pines. There was also a quaint park space across the road we were able to utilize for photos. The colors Kelsey chose for her wedding day fit perfectly into the autumn tones — rust orange, terracotta and chestnut, accented with dark cyan blue.

Eric & Kelsey are a sweet couple, blending their families together. During the ceremony (which was completely in ASL, with spoken translation), the couple brought their three children up to the altar for their unity sand ceremony. Each person had their own color of sand to blend into a keepsake box.

“You’re Still The One” by Shania Twain was the song that these two picked to share their first dance as husband and wife! Congratulation on your Minnesota Fall Wedding at the Braham Event Center Mrs. and Mr. Ross!
