Real Weddings: Courtney & Karl Fall Wedding at Adler Ranch, Alexandria MN

Courtney and Karl’s October wedding at Adler Ranch was nothing short of amazing—a day full of love, laughter, and all the good vibes! They tied the knot surrounded by the beauty of our outdoor space, even planting blueberry bushes as a sweet unity ritual.

With the magic of our vintage signs and antiques setting the scene, Courtney was absolutely stunning in her Luxe Bridal dress, with hair by MelBelle’s Hair Gallery and makeup by Rowan Beauty Co. Karl kept it cool and stylish in a navy and grey ensemble, topped off with a custom baseball hat that was so him.

The celebration continued in our cozy Banquet Barn, featuring delicious food from Raapers The Catering Company, a gorgeous cake from Nadia Cakes, and a dance floor that DJ Jukebox Jon kept packed all night. Of course, our Grain Bin Bar and Something Borrowed Collection added those special touches that made the day totally unique. It was such a blast being part of their big day—Courtney and Karl, you’re truly one-of-a-kind! ❤️Thank you to Eric Vest Photography and Summit Hills Studios for videography!
