Rodney and Tarah

Rodney Pritchard and Tarah Eigen were married May 23 in an elegant ceremony and reception at the University Club in St. Paul, a historic mansion that is filled with beautiful light and the pinnacle of bygone era class. The couple met while taking dance instruction, romantically enough! They wanted a wedding that would be "genuine and fun" as Rodney told me, with lounge seating, music by amazing jazz singer Nancy Harms and her combo, and lots of finger food.   Unlike most grooms, Rodney was hands-on with this wedding, creating the flowers and the invitations himself; he even plans to put together his own album. He is a graphic artist, so it will be fabulous, I am sure. Tarah glowed with happiness all day and looked like a goddess in her satiny gown. Their first dance featured their ballroom dancing skills. A gorgeous venue, a warm and genuine couple, a great wedding. Click on any image to open larger in a new window, and leave a message for us, we'd love to hear from you!
