Hi! I'm Cedric, the lead photographer behind MCDYphotography. What started as a creative outlet over a decade ago has grown into a full-blown passion for capturing life’s most meaningful moments. As someone who values genuine connection and storytelling, I approach every wedding with care, intention, and attention to detail. I believe photography should feel personal and timeless, something that brings you back to exactly how it felt in the moment. Based in Mankato, MN, I work closely with each couple to document their day in a way that reflects their story honestly and beautifully.

Working with Cedric was awesome from start to finish. He totally got our vibe and made the whole thing feel super easy. He cracked jokes, kept things light, and somehow managed to make two awkward people (us) look amazing in photos. The turnaround was quick (5 days), the quality was insane, and we’re just really happy we went with him. Highly recommend if you want someone who’s talented and just fun to have around on your big day.

Hi, I am Andrea, the owner and lead designer of Budding Creations. If I am not working with flowers, you can find me drinking coffee or wine on the couch while reading. I love all things that involve being creative wether that is baking and decorating cupcakes, practicing calligraphy, or decorating.

I have been lucky enough to work with Andrea and the team at Budding Creations on many occasions and the final product that they deliver is truly some of the most incredible floral design I have seen in over 7 years as a wedding planner. Recently I worked with Andrea to turn a client's whimsy garden wedding into something beyond what the bride could even dare to envision. The look on the Bride's face when she saw what Andrea had created for her wedding reception is something I will never forget! Attention to detail and thoughtful design as well as impeccable taste are all highlights of working with this team. I am confident that any couple's floral dreams are possible when working with Budding Creations.

Little Roots Flower Farm 
Mankato, MN
  • Florist
  • Starts at $500

We have been gardening for years and each year we seem to add a little more so in 2021 we took the plunge to start growing flowers. It was a year to get our feet wet and take it slow. While we learned quite a bit about selling flowers, it was nice to start slow - especially since I was pregnant and it seemed like it was 100 degrees from June through August. Bending over and tending to the garden was no easy feat with a big belly either. In 2023 we moved to our current location that we continue to develop and grow with plans to expand and offer more to the community.

Valerie was amazing to work with! She photographed our wedding and was so kind and detail oriented. The photos came out great, and she was more than happy to adjust some of the editing for us when we asked! We even purchased the package that included scrapbooks and we procrastinated following up with it, but over a year later she was still eager to make them for us and hand delivered them to our door with the sweetest note and goodies. Anybody would be lucky to work with her!!

Beautiful, charming, full of options/amenities, and an easy-to-work-with venue owner. Yes, please. I toured a handful of places in MN before I signed up for the Barn at Ballard Creek. Other venues were either too expensive for what you get, the people weren't as approachable or as communicative, or as beautiful location-wise. I love the big red barn, the cottage to get ready in, the cows, the flowers, the big tree where I was married, and more. There's plenty of parking. It's clean. Lindsey helped me figure out how to make the wedding work for my vision and budget. I like that I wasn't forced to pick a specific caterer too. 5 stars all around. Have your event here! It's perfect.

Thousands of brides across the United States and Canada have trusted Something Borrowed Blooms to provide the perfect flowers for their wedding day. We offer brides the expensive peonies, delicate ranunculus, out-of-season anemones, and the ever-impossible-to-find-magnolia — all at a fraction of the cost.

Awarded Best of Zola
Using SBB was a great choice for our wedding - a fraction of the cost of fresh flowers, sustainable, and beautiful! We got centerpieces and some ceremony decor. Everything came boxed up safely and arrived like 5 days before the wedding. It was super easy for our coordinator to just take them out, fluff them up, and box them up again at the end of the night. I felt good renting not throwing away a bunch of stuff at the end. And again, the flowers were so beautiful!!

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 

4.9

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Mankato, MN

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
I ordered the "peaches and cream" small package. We decided to skip on ceremony florals, and only have handhelds and bud vases at the reception. We did buy a few more flowers from the grocery to add more peach once the flowers arrived. We made and medium sized bridal bouquet, 4 bridesmaids bouquets, 3 corsages, and 7 bouts. (With lots of flowers left over). My bridesmaids and I did the arranging the morning before the wedding; it was fun, and a great start to the weekend. None of us had experience, but it all turned out great! If you or your bridal party are mildly crafty, I'd highly recommend it!

As soon as the music started, the dance floor filled up and stayed packed all night long! The set list matched our taste perfectly.

Devyn was our photographer for our engagement photos in February 2022 and for our wedding in October 2022. We had the absolute best experience with her during both sessions. I was so overwhelmed when searching for a photographer, I didn’t know much about it and there are so many options out there. The first thing that caught our eye was her editing style. The coloring wasn't washed out or super saturated like other photographers editing I'd seen. Her editing was simple, yet captivating. We also noticed her creativity with the variety of poses and candid shots in her online portfolio. Not only is she fantastic at what she does, she so unbelievably kind and fun to work with! She makes you feel at ease behind the camera and that was so important to us! We would highly recommend Devyn to be your photographer for any special occasion!

Hi, I’m Isaac. In my world, light is everything. The cool ambient hues at dawn, hinting at what the day may bring. Golden sun rays catching particles through a tree as friends gathers to celebrate. A Cotton candy sunset peppered by patio string-lights as a DJ plays my favorite song. We all have timeless memories logged in our minds. For me, they are based in a language of light. As a wedding photographer, this deep connection to special lighting helps me produce dynamic visual stories of romance, personality and beauty.

Isaac’s photography style was perfect for us. He already delivered about half of our retouched photos a week after the wedding which was insane and I love every single one. He was flexible with the 5 flower girls we had in and out of pictures and the multiple areas on our venue property. Overall an amazing experience and I recommend his work to anyone and everyone looking.

Hello! I'm Erica and I am based in Minnesota but travel all over! I love fun adventures, traveling to new places, meeting people and learning about their unique experiences - a big part of why I love photography! I specialize in wedding and engagement portraits and love working with my couples throughout the whole wedding planning process.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had the most wonderful wedding experience. Working with Erica from the beginning I knew she had it all taken care of. Starting off with price, she had multiple packages for all different needs and budgets. Our package included the engagement session which was a great lead into what the wedding day would be like. Erica never rushed or pushed us to do things we didn’t want to do. She was very considerate of what we wanted as well as knowing what we didn’t know we wanted! We received our engagement photos back in record time which was very helpful with sending invites out and such. The wedding day was smooth sailing. Erica arrived early and got right to work, she new exactly what she needed to get done to stay on time. I really appreciated her attention to time as well as her calming presence, I think that’s why I stayed calm too. There was nothing distracting during the ceremony, Erica and her partner were sneaky and quiet during the whole thing which I also appreciated looking back because I’ve been to weddings where the photographer sort of steals the show with distractions. As far as the rest of the day Erica knew exactly what photos had to be done and kept us on track, if not ahead of schedule! We had plans to greet all the guests at their tables and get a picture but it didn’t work out as I thought it would so Erica quickly solved the problem and had us take a group photo with ALL 200 guests and got the most awesome photo that we will remember forever. I would recommend Erica Johanna photography to anyone looking. Do you want someone organized? Done. Do you want someone with a calm demeanor? Done. Do you want someone with extreme talent for getting the most beautiful photos? Done! She does it all and I couldn’t be more happy with my choice to have her for my wedding

Ledd captured the emotions and love with every shot! We booked Ledd for photographer and videographer for our wedding. And he did not disappoint!

Hey there! My name is Emilee, and I am a Minnesota-native living in NYC! I've been photographing people and events for the past 15 years. I shoot families, couples, individuals, and pets, but my passion lies in wedding photography. I love capturing the whirlwind of a couples' big day, and seeing the love that is shared between them and all their wedding guests. It's magical and wonderful every. single. time. My current active markets are Minnesota and New York, but I'm available to travel anywhere in the US and the world for additional fees!

What a dream Emilee was to work with, from start to finish. OUR CEREMONY PARTY: we decided on a private, courthouse elopement on a Wednesday, a 60 person reception party on a Friday. In both, our biggest priority was having a photographer capture the intimate, joyful small details. We went with Emilee because of her eye for the beauty in the small things. She captured both our days perfectly. DOCUMENTARY STYLE: Emilee was perfect behind the scenes, capturing beautiful moments of our friends and family, small details of the courthouse with just us. I look back at some of these photos and ask "how did she even get that?!" She has such an eye. POSED: We had about 20 minutes dedicated to posed, family photos during our reception. Emilee had our families relaxed and laughing, quickly swapping members in and out. In some newlywed photos, we sought her advice for how to pose. She gave quick direction, made us feel confident, and always found the perfect light. COMMUNICATION SPEED: Delivered on every promise, quick replies. Emilee was 15 minutes early to both locations, we never had to worry. PERSONALLY: We met with Emilee about 4 months before our big days. We had coffee, talked about our vision and our biggest priorities. She immediately felt like a friend, and knew she was firmly on our team. If you're looking for a photographer to capture not only beautiful photos of yourself, but more importantly, the feeling in every room, Emilee is the photographer for you. We recommend wholeheartedly, and can't wait for another occasion to work with her. Sincerely, Mara James
