Imagine a winter wedding set in the heart of one of the most beautiful conservatories in the United States. The Como Zoo Conservatory in Saint Paul, Minnesota, was the chosen venue for Maricor and Eric's unforgettable union. This story began halfway across the globe, in Japan, where Maricor worked as a nurse and Eric was stationed at a US military base. Their unique love story brought them together, and their journey culminated in a magical winter wedding, framed by the romantic, snow-dusted landscapes of Minnesota.

The venue was adorned with a variety of plants and flowers, making it a lush botanical haven despite the cold winter outside. The venue's Christmas tree twinkling with lights added an extra touch of magic to the atmosphere. The first look was at the bridge, a place that held sentimental value for the couple as it was where Eric had proposed.

A fantastic team of vendors came together to make this day perfect. The venue, managed by @comozooconservatory, was transformed into a winter wonderland. The videography was taken care of by @perryamoylenfilms, who captured the couple's happiness and the beauty of the day in a way that will allow them to relive those precious moments forever.

The bride, Maricor, looked radiant, her hair styled beautifully by @pal.in.drome.llc. Her wedding dress, a creation of @joan.ricafuente, was breathtaking, adding to the elegance of the day. The florist, @artemisiastudiosmn, did an exquisite job with the flowers, enhancing the natural beauty of the conservatory and adding to the festive atmosphere.

No wedding is complete without a cake, and the one at this wedding, baked by @buttercupweddingcakes, was as beautiful as it was delicious. The cake, like the rest of the wedding, was a perfect blend of the couple's personal tastes and the winter theme.

Maricor and Eric's wedding was a true celebration of love and togetherness, set against the backdrop of a winter wonderland. Their story serves as a reminder that love knows no boundaries, and beautiful beginnings can happen anywhere - even in a far-off military base in Japan. Their winter wedding was a magical end to one chapter of their journey and the start of another, together as husband and wife.
