Investment in Planning a Personal Wedding Ceremony is Worth the Effort!

We love our ceremony ... and we really enjoyed putting it together.  I'm glad we took this time to really work on it and talk through it and use it to discuss our intentions for marriage, as well as for the rest of the wedding. 

 

Just received this email from Eddie and Nicole this afternoon. It was a pleasure to hear these words.

Kent and I truly would like the words we speak at a couple's wedding ceremony to be words that reflect them, that inspire, that offer hope, that celebrate their good fortune.  I'm smiling as I write this because a ceremony is such a special moment and it always makes us happy!

If you are planning your ceremony and would like to engage in a co-creative, thoughtful and meaningful process to arrive at wording that is just right for the two of you, give us a call at 206.789.9788 or contact us through our website.

An Intimate Wedding -- Cave B at Sagecliffe

Matt and Heather wanted a relaxed, yet elegant wedding.  They decided on Cave B: a place of good memories, a place near relatives, a place that is dramatic and inspiring, a place of great wine (which is a big part of their lives).

The couple also decided to keep the guest list to their parents and their siblings plus their brother and sister's families, Matt's children and their closest friends ... and to make their wedding a day to remember. Here are a few of the lucky people to share the occasion with Heather and Matt.

The welcome reception took place on the patio of the Petite Cordan.  As you can see, it was a spectacular day.

Before the reception, Matt and Heather had a "reveal."  Isn't love wonderful to see?!

When everyone was at ease and had a chance to reconnect or to make new acquaintances, we all walked to the Rooftop, where the ceremony began.  Matt and Heather entered together.

Loved these words about the two of them.  

Heather, Matt is a gift to you.  He is the hero in your everyday who makes your life special and deeply satisfying.  His compassion and thoughtfulness will continue to draw you into his family and his heart.

Matt, Heather is a gift to you.  She is your "ladder to the stars" and your best friend.  Of all the people in the world, she is the one that you are most honored to share a foxhole with.

Married and happy!










The reception hall was beautifully set.
















And there were so many desserts:  cake and pies and cupcakes. Aren't these adorable?!

 

 


Sagecliffe is a very scenic area, as you can see in these photos.

The best of life always be yours, Heather and Matt, filled with good people, good wine, and good times!

Colin and Kathy Marry in Bellevue In a Very Unique Ceremony

Kathy loves Colin, Colin loves Kathy!  They are two very playful, imaginative people who have been exploring the world together and have discovered in each other a life-long partner.  

Kathy wore a traditional wedding dress and veil.  Colin was a bit more colorful!

They decided to wed near the play set in their backyard.  And, they had a tent (just in case -- it is Seattle after all!)

Everyone gathered near the trees.  Since it was an intimate ceremony, each person had a great view.

The words of the ceremony were uniquely Colin and Kathy.  

Loved their vows!  The words totally suited them.

Colin pledged:
I promise to dance when you need a lead.

I promise to build your garden when you need to grow.

I promise to find you socks when you are sleepy.

I promise to fly with you when you dream.

I promise to take care of you when you’re broken.

I promise to love you for the rest of my life.

Kathy said:

I promise to guide you when you are lost.

I promise to cook you tasty foods when you are hungry.

I promise to squish the spiders when you are scared.

I promise to fly with you when you dream.

I promise to take care of you when you’re broken.

I promise to love you for the rest of my life.

Everyone was very happy!!!

Day changed to night ... and the yard became a magically place.  The two stood nose to nose, playful as ever and ready to make their way in the world.  



We wish them for them many more days of walking their dog, making dinner and finishing chores together, to hiking the crater around Yakima, beach combing on Camano Island and taking road trips, to thinking up math poems and finding even better jungle gyms!

Many thanks to Scott Eklund of Redbox Pictures for the images.
