The Long Beach area of the Washington coast is my favorite. When I was younger, my family and I used to go there often. It was a 90 minute drive from our house, and the salty air called on a regular basis. It was so much a part of us, that my mom wanted to…
Maggie and Jason aren’t the type to do a wedding the fussy way. They’re more the DIY Tie-Dyed flower girl dresses and groomsmen’s socks type. The ceremony in the round type. The taco truck type. And their wedding was awesome. The afternoon started out with some portrait fun, and then the entire crowd of guests…
Jess and Sayer got married back in December, but they held a reception for their friends and family over the Labor Day weekend at a beautiful rental house on Lake Goodwin in Stanwood. They are both in the military, and Jess coordinated much of the event over emails and phone from Afganistan! I was so…
Lindsey and Nathan met through a mutual friend at a party (who this weekend got to serve as maid of honor at their wedding). Despite living a few states apart, they knew that there was something there. They bounced back and forth between visits in Colorado and Washington before Nathan finally decided to move for…
Christina and Greg got married last week on their 17th dating anniversary. As a couple who has been through about half of their lives together, they weren’t focused on sweating the little things. Instead, they had a beautiful and intimate elopement ceremony on a cliff in the Olympic National Forrest on Hurricane Ridge. It was…
Ally & Clay got married at Dairyland in Snohomish on a warm (but not hot) August Saturday, and what a wedding it was!! So many fun people – you can tell that they’re going to make a lot of good memories with their friends and families over the years. Ally’s dad wrote his toast on the…
Trupti and Patrick met a few years ago at work. They got to chatting over Star Wars, and the rest (as they say) is history. Their friendship grew into romance, and eventually they adopted a cat and a fluffy white puppy. Getting married was in the stars. And this last weekend, we had the honor…
Paul and Faye got married on a drizzly day out in Poulsbo, WA. After a week of sunny hot days, the weather wasn’t as cooperative as we’d hoped. But a few breaks in the clouds allowed us to get outside and play on the playground outside their venue, the Island Lake Park community center. It’s a great…
Love country weddings? We do too!! Megan and Tim got married over Labor Day weekend up at Tazer Valley Farm in Stanwood, WA. Their day was bright and colorful, with a gorgeous color palette of grey, navy, and bright yellow. Tazer Valley Farm provided the perfect backdrop – a mix of rustic country charm, with…
Mary and Josh were destined to be. A mutual friend saw it long before they even met, and when she finally was able to introduce them they clicked right away. Josh was from California, Mary from Texas… and they decided to build their life together here in the Seattle area. They got engaged, bought a…
