Dima and Rebecca - A Wedding Atop Crystal Mountain!

 

OK ... Rebecca and Dima have very good taste.  This wonderful couple knows there are few places more stunning than the views from Crystal Mountain.  Their wedding day was a bit overcast in the morning but cleared in time for the ceremony.

Awesome!

We all rode the gondola -- about a 10 minute or so trip -- to the wedding site.  Flowers to decorate the area, along with all the guests made their way up.  

The timing was perfect.  Right after the ceremony ended, there were notifications of a possible thunder storm and everyone was ushered back to the gondola.

The reception was so much fun.  Dima and Rebecca's personalities really shone through.  Dima taught Rebecca to ski so this snowboard "guest book," was just perfect.  The first time I've seen this idea.

The two also are fans of IPAs and brewed their own Hoppity version as favors, along with a glass that read "Eat, Drink and be Married."


Hope to share more photos soon!


Wishing Rebecca and Dima, many years enjoying the slopes, the brews and their love!

Jeff & Diana's "Love in the Rain" Wedding Ceremony

 "Thank you, Kent! It was really a pleasure working with you and Pat. The wedding was an unbelievable experience, on many levels, and including for one reason you called out - it was amazing to have so many people there who love us, and to feel that joy and delight you mention. I was so glad that we wrote our own vows, personalized the ceremony with your and Pat's guidance, involved many friends to sing, speak, play (and even chauffeur!), and that we included the community affirmation language. "

The bride and groom glowed ... and their day was blessed by the rain (very auspicious).   Thankfully, the tent kept the guests dry and comfortable and the best man shielded the bride from any stray droplets. (Yes, Kent brought a white umbrella to the wedding and it really came in handy. And I love the look of the clear tent.)

As you can see in the photo above, the wedding party was quite cozy under the focal point tree in the garden.  It created a sense of intimacy and connection, reflecting key values of the couple. What impressed my husband the most was the joy of the experience.  This unique couple enjoyed their moment, rain or shine.

Words from the heart are the best words!

Diana and Jeff exchanged their personal vows in Parsons Garden (Queen Anne area of Seattle).  It was in this very park the two shared their first date.  

During their courtship, "they climbed mountain peaks, walked deserted beaches, got lost together, sat quietly side by side together," in Jeff's words.  What made each moment better was that they experienced it all together.

The two designed their wedding rings. They wanted them to reflect a sense of movement and to signify the flow of life.  And they were beautiful.

Off they go, happy and in love.

Their wedding day was as memorable as any could be.  Spirits were high and I'm sure will remain so.  Wishing the two a happy, healthy and long-lived journey through life together.

Aaron & Kristin Wed on Mt. Rainier

This very amazing couple decided to exchange their marriage vows at Ricksecker Point.  It was a holiday weekend.  Family and friends flew in from all over the country to converge in Ashford, then ventured forth in the rain into Mt. Rainier National Park.

Although we only caught glimpses of the mountain, Kristin and Aaron's love warmed everyone's heart.  The umbrellas lent a festival touch to the celebration and there was a sense of connection created by the mist.

Oh, and the air was absolutely delicious!!!  So cool and clean.  I couldn't breathe in enough of it.

After the nuptials, the bride and groom headed off for a short hike.  We hope they enjoy endless trails together!!  So fun.  Meanwhile we indulged in wonderful marionberry pie from Copper Creek Inn.

Thanks to Russ, Aaron's uncle,  for the photo!
