A Minneapolis Wedding Photographer’s Favorite Oak Ridge Country Club Moments
A Joyful Summer Wedding at Oak Ridge Country Club
Candid, Natural Moments with a Warm, Authentic Feel
There’s something especially magical about a summer wedding in Minnesota—long golden hours, lush greenery, and the kind of light that makes everything feel just a little more romantic. This Oak Ridge Country Club wedding was the perfect blend of elegance and fun, filled with authentic, candid moments and a bride and groom who weren’t afraid to laugh, dance, and fully enjoy every second of their day.
As a Minneapolis wedding photographer, I live for these kinds of weddings—the ones where joy is contagious and the love is easy to see.
A Naturally Beautiful Setting
Oak Ridge Country Club is such a stunning venue in the summer. The well-kept grounds, quiet tree-lined paths, and wide-open views created the perfect backdrop for portraits that felt natural, relaxed, and warm. We took full advantage of the evening light for golden hour photos, and the results were glowing, heartfelt, and timeless.
Candid Moments That Tell the Story
From the bride’s spontaneous twirls to the groom’s joyful reactions during their first look, this day was full of moments that happened in-between the poses—the best kind. I always aim to photograph weddings as they truly unfold, capturing the real connections and unfiltered happiness. This couple made that easy. Their energy was playful and grounded, and every photo reflects that.
Final Thoughts
This Oak Ridge Country Club wedding was a beautiful reminder that the best photos aren’t the ones that are perfectly posed—they’re the ones where you feel something. Warm, authentic, and candid moments that reflect who you are and what the day felt like.
If you're planning a wedding and want photography that tells your story in a natural, real way—I’d love to help you capture every moment.
