CATHOLIC ASSOCIATE WEDDINGS FROM SUMMER OF 2025 ALL SHOT BY NIKAYLA & CO. ASSOCIATES.
WHAT IS A NIKAYLA & CO. ASSOCIATE?
Nikayla & Co has a number of associate photographers and videographers on the team who are ready to serve you wherever you’re getting married. They are spread out all over the country and have been trained to shoot in the Nikayla & Co. style. If you’re looking for someone who knows the mass forward & backward and is zealous about their faith, they’ve got that down too. Having an associate team allows us the chance to do more weddings in a weekend, serve more clients at all different budgets, and connect with truly amazing individuals & couples. Here are just some of our summer associate weddings!
KODY & MARY
Kody and Mary were married at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Two Inlets, Minnesota. This church is especially unique because it offers Mass inside during the winter (or bad weather), but holds all its summer Masses outside at the grotto. After Mary and Kody’s wedding Mass, they made their way to Detroit Lakes and popped into a bar before heading to their reception at the Detroit Lakes Pavilion. Mary’s father’s speech was so sweet and tender and brought my team to tears as they listened. Mary and Kody were also blessed with a soft, colorful sunset on their wedding day, perfect for all the romantic, adventurous photos Mary desired.

SAVANNAH & CARSON
Savannah and Carson’s day started out with a sweet letter reading (a great way to be with each other the morning of without seeing each other) and moved into their Catholic Wedding Mass at St. Joseph’s. They had their reception at the Olympic Hills Golf Club, where many friends and family gathered around for joyful speeches and a romantic first dance as husband and wife.

OLIVIA & JORDAN
Olivia and Jordan were married at Holy Cross Catholic Church with a reception at the Dellwood Barn. Olivia’s story of finding love is truly one of the sweetest of them all. She was very close to her grandfather before he passed, and always prayed to marry a man like him, and then found Jordan. Her engagement ring was her grandmother’s wedding ring which perfectly pairs with her wedding band from Arthur’s Jewelers. The combination looks like the stars on Our Lady of Guadalupe’s mantle (there are many little hints to her throughout their wedding day & details.)

SOPHIA & CONNOR
Sophia & Connor were married at the Old St. Mary’s in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. They had soft blues as their accent color (how Marian 😍) and a reception at a super cool and old Historic Court House. From the sweet embraces in the morning, to the holy Mass, to the fun getaway car at the reception, every moment of this day was gorgeous.

BELLE & NOAH

Their reception was at the EBell of Santa Anna and, fun fact, Belle’s engagement ring was made by a small jeweler on Long Island, using Noah’s great-grandmother’s diamond.
