Erin and Julia Wed At Parsons Garden


Meet the brides: Julia and Erin! 
The two met in college and fell in love.  

They discovered they share a similar life perspective: they both want a life of exploration and this fall took a huge step  and relocated to Dublin, Ireland. 



Their wedding was the first formal step in their journey in life together.  It was a very special moment as they joined hands and walked together to where their family and friends were waiting.


Since it was an afternoon wedding, the cocktail length dresses and stylish heels were so perfect.  





The wording was simple and suited Julia and Erin perfectly.









The brides decided to honor their mothers with bouquets of flowers. (Doesn't this almost look like a dance move?)
Wishing this very wonderful couple a lifetime of amazing adventures!

Many thanks to Jennifer Boyle Penny for these photographs.

Eric and Cindy - Two Celebrations for One True Love

Eric and Cindy exchange their wedding vows.  Officiant:  Patricia Stimac, A Heavenly Ceremony.
Eric grew up in the Pacific Northwest and moved to Texas, which is fortunate because that's where he found his true love: Cindy.   

The bride and groom met online and had their first date about two years ago. Eric had recently bought a Chevy Volt and they fell in love at the same time they became "up close and personal" with almost every plug in the metroplex.  (I think that is so cute ... and so environmentally sound.)

The two decided to have their wedding ceremony and one reception at the Barbee Mill Community Center in Renton, and then another reception in Texas.

When they contacted me, I had to look up their wedding venue.  It is quite lovely and perfect for an intimate celebration.  Perfect for them.

The night of the wedding was clear and there was a beautiful sunset.

Cindy and her twin sister, Lindy, arranged the flowers and completed the other decorations before changing into their ceremony attire.


Meanwhile, Mark, Eric's brother, was preparing the food for the reception.  It all looked absolutely yummny.

Here's the wedding party:  Lindy, Cindy, Eric and Mark.

I really liked the "Mint to be" container decorated with paw prints and filled with mints.  (Also enjoyed the Peppermint Pattys.)

Samuel and Sarafina Wed in Seattle

We are so delighted to meet couples from all over the world who marry in our home/office.  One of these incredible brides and grooms is Samuel and Sarafina from Ghana.

When Samuel called to arrange the wedding details, he asked if we had a place where he could change.  Yes, of course.

He arrived with his suitcase and ta-da ... this is how he looked.  Both he and Sarafina and their daughter are so striking.

It was great to see the transformation.  The ceremony took place on a rather chilly November day but inside we were warm and toasty.


Here is the family!
