We met Erika and Jared at The 2016 Snohomish Wedding Tour. Erika was about ready to bring a beautiful little girl into the world, and they were somehow dealing with record-setting heat with smiles on their faces. We met again a few months later over dinner, and swapped stories of sleepless nights and other treats…
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…
Stephanie and Norman got married just as the summer was starting to turn into fall. The sun was out, but it wasn’t too hot. The leaves were starting to turn on a handful of trees, but hadn’t left anything bare. The sun set early enough to appreciate it, but not so early that the entire…
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…
Kate and Garrett got married a couple weeks ago. The skies were smokey, and we were just coming down off the heat wave that swept the puget sound area. That didn’t put any dampers on their celebration, though. Their processional included a real ball and chain gag, the groom and groomsmen all wore crazy socks,…
Smoke is an interesting thing. If you live in the general Puget Sound area, you know that for the last week and a half, we were socked in by the wildfire smoke coming down from Vancouver B.C. The air has finally cleared up for the most part, which is lovely. However, during the midst of…
Caroline and Walt got married in January on a cruise ship. The pair loves to travel, and it was a fitting location for them to share their special day together. However, they also wanted to celebrate with their family and friends. So, they planned a vow renewal and wine-soaked party to follow six months later.…
Maggie and Jason are getting married this summer out of Woodland Meadow Farms. When we met, I instantly knew that they were going to be a fun couple to work with, and turns out my gut was right! Maggie suggested we hit up the Bob Heirman Wildlife Preserve in Snohomish for their engagement session. With…
Taffy and Jim got hitched at Red Barn Farm in Redmond. They even had a hitching post made up just for the occasion. It was a super hot day, but that didn’t stop everyone from donning their boots and dancing after the ceremony. Taffy and Jim have been taking country dance lessons for a while…
