This past weekend I had the pleasure of working at the Wisconsin State Ballroom Dance Championships. This was the 25th year celebration and it was quite a wonderful weekend. A special thanks to Dan and Becky Messenger who put together an amazing event and congratulations on 25 YEARS!!

This past week, our crew hosted a lovely little meet-and-greet happy hour for wedding vendors! We love getting to know the people we work with on weddings, and we also find some face-time incredibly valuable! The Modern Cafe, in Northeast Minneapolis, were our hosts for the evening and the staff there absolutely WOW’d us with their cocktails and appetizers! (Brides – did you know that the Modern now offers liquor catering?!?! What a fabulous idea for your party….) Creating lasting relationships with people in our industry is so important, and it was so great to take a moment and show our appreciation. Thank you to all of the vendors who came out, it was great to meet you!

What an amazing evening! More images from last night’s FOUND // The Art of Wedding coming soon!

It’s a very exciting time here at Rivets and Roses! Earlier this fall, we decided to hire a few more photographers to join our team and expand the Rivets studio! We were so happy with each and every single applicant and are absolutely thrilled with all of the new talent we are bringing to the team! We will officially be launching the new Rivets and Roses crew in a couple of weeks, but in the mean time, here’s a quick introduction to our new photographers!
