Cordell + Jerika had a fabulous wedding in Bismarck ND. I love heading to the 'big city' because it gives me a chance to see so many different places.

We started the morning at Luxe Beautique Salon for hair and makeup. Everyone met back up at The Bismarck Hotel for final touches and getting ready. I always love the jewelry details and hair pieces on a wedding day. They add a beautiful touch to get the whole look.

It was a priority for Cordell + Jerika to NOT see each other before the ceremony. VERY tricky but very possible. Instead of doing a 'First Look', we headed to Bismarck's North Dakota Heritage Center for a 'First Touch'. They were able to hold hands around a corner and enjoy a private moment to share. This gave us the opportunity to get some Bridal Party shots outside at some cool locations. We stopped at the Capitol with the men and went inside the Heritage center with the women. Both locations are so bright and light; I highly recommend these locations for anyone getting married in the Bismarck are.

Their ceremony was beautiful where Cordell was finally able to see his bride. I loved how they incorporated their grandfathers and families. We had enough time after the ceremony to head back to the Heritage Center for some amazing photos of the newlyweds.

We spent the rest of the evening at The Bismarck Hotel for dinner and dancing. Harmon Entertainment kept us entertained and moving the entire night.

The day flew by and was absolutely beautiful.
