I was so excited when I heard about what Courtney and Andy were going to do for their wedding…lots of vintage, lace, pearls, grey, pink and white. I knew it was going to be amazing, but I didn’t know it was going to blow my mind! :) It was over the top incredible and I loved it so so much!

So many things I just loved about this wedding. Here’s just a few:

1. Courtney’s glittery princess wedding gown from one of my favorite stores: From the Gown Up, in Snohomish, Washington.

2. The gorgeous flowers that incorporated soft pinks, creams, whites and even soft grey!! Not sure what they were called, but they really brought the color palette to life!

3. The lace and vintage chuppah…this was just an amazing piece! It really brought the feel of the reception area to the ceremony.

4. Courtney’s shoes: so. much. bling. nothing more to say!

5. All of the DIY details! I loved the guest book, ring bearer box and all of the hanging lace accents in the  trees, the lemonade stand, the honey favors! loved all of them!

6. The incredible wedding venue. The wedding venue was a private estate with the most amazing pond and treated the wedding guests to the most fabulous serene view of Ebey Mountain in Arlington….I woke up to this mountain growing up, as I lived about 5 minutes from this place!

7. The cutest Lemonade stand ever…complete with grey striped straws!

8. All of the white vintage framed chalk boards. Guest need guidance and signs telling them where everything is…and chalkboards are such a great way to do that! these ones were darling!

Awe!! Danielle and Ryan…another eharmony couple.  Man, I sure do love when my clients fall in love via online dating. Somehow they just really fit together…like they were made to find each other or something. :) These two fit together so nicely, like peanut butter and jelly.

This dress just knocked me off my feet, when I walked in the bridal suite and saw it. It is one of my favorites that From the Gown Up carries. I loved it so much that before I met Danielle…I had all ready done a styled shoot with it. During our first consultation, Danielle had to hold it together and try to to scream….”THATS MY DRESS!!” when she saw it in a coffee table book….as to not tip off her man on what her wedding gown looked like! It was the perfect dress for Danielle. Its modern, but still has a lovely vintage vibe to it. We nicknamed it the cupcake dress…and it will forever be that in my mind!

What a gorgeous ring!

Awe…another tear jerker! I love watching the faces of the bride’s mom when dad walks in! There is something so stinking special about it. You can really see the love.

No wonder these two were giddy all day long….its in their genes! I love seeing siblings who enjoy being around each other! So much fun.

I just loved this huge white bouquet by Flowers By Tiffany! So amazing!! Not only did it look gorgeous, it smelled soooo good!!

This ceremony was held in the most enchanting little forest at Twin Willow Gardens. Seriously…it was cool and relaxed in there…and I know the guests were so thankful to get a little shade. It felt like we were in the middle of no where…I loved it!

Honestly…Danielle and Ryan both had a grin on their face the whole day! Thats the way a bride and groom should be!

I just died over these little glittered birdy cake toppers! So stinking cute!

The grounds at Twin Willow Gardens was so lovely and full of flowers, color and beautiful landscape! I loved this place to much! If you are getting married here….I want to shoot it!

Oh man…during the Anniversary Dance….Zerlinda, the wedding coordinator, and I pretty much lost it! These two snuggled up close, just made me so excited to be married as long as they are…and still want to snuggle up and dance.

I really love Port Gamble. Its quaint, gorgeous and full of history. Its sleepy and quiet, but full of beauty. I can’t wait for another reason to load up on the ferry and head over.

We just had so much fun at this vintage, DIY wedding…lots of fun mustaches and lips! :) And  whole lot of love to go around!

So awhile ago I got an email from one of my favorite Bellingham Wedding Planners, Brittany of BBJean Events, and she proposed a shoot to me….and when she mentioned amazing Fascinators picked up in Europe by Pam, of Alicia’s Bridal…she knew I would be hooked for sure!  She was totally right!

When I arrived at Alicia’s Bridal to see what we were working with, I just about fell over with delight! There is something so classic, vintage and yest still modern about each of these wedding fascinators, birdcage veils and hats! I loved each and every one of them…it was so hard to actually decide on what to shoot! Not to mention the A-MAH-ZING (yes, a-mahzing) wedding gowns we got to play dress up with! EVERY time I see wedding dresses, I just want to buy one to wear around the house! Wouldn’t that be fun!?!

We all had so much fun….I wish we could do this every week! Thanks to the fabulous gals from Northwest Hair Design, Mandi on Hair and Jessi on Make-up…Katie was looking incredible again! (if you want to see our other shoot with this fun model, check out this post.) Joanna from Alicia’s Bridal was also a great location scout! It was like she crawled into my brain and read my mind! She knew exactly what I was looking for!

Thank you, Brittany and Pam for letting me come up and play!

My favorite image of the whole day!! Loved this shot so much!

I gotta tell you that when I sat down with Jen & Dave, I just knew I was going to love their wedding. And boy….was I right! It was such a blast! I loved being on the Argosy Cruise on a warm September evening…out on the deck, taking in the amazing Seattle skyline from the beautiful Puget Sound. What an amazing night!

We started out at the Red Lion in Seattle and then headed down to the Seattle waterfront for some wedding party & Bride & Groom portraits…from there we hopped on the boat and got ready for the ceremony!

I absolutely loved this bridal bouquet with white hydrangeas, yellow calla lillies and navy ribbon! So fabulous and fit with the nautical theme perfectly with out being over the top.

I loved this simple white rose bud cake from Jenny Cookies for the cake cutting! All of the desserts were on the tables, so this was special, just for the bride and groom! 

How cute are these umbrellas that the bride and groom gave away as favors! With tons of their guests coming from other states, these were a perfect momento from Seattle….but I’m really glad we didn’t even need them!

So in love the with Nautical rope to hold up the Dessert cards!

Jenny Keller of Jenny Designs & Jenny Cookies did such a great job taking the Vintage Nautical theme out to the deck of the Argosy Cruise Boat without it being too over the top! I love the lanterns lining the aisle way.

What an amazing view for your wedding guests to enjoy while taking a break from dancing all night long…I had my dinner out on the deck and soaked in the view. Seattle is one gorgeous city!

I am not kidding when I say that these guys danced all night….because they did! The Sound Factory did a great job keeping the peeps on the dance floor….and these guys knew how to move! Super fun friends and family kept the party going all the way to the dock!
