A few weeks ago…on a lovely snowy day, we did a Winter Princess Bridal Shoot. The whole day was filled with gasping and amazing moments. Thank you to all the vendors that made it happen!!

There is something so special about having a daughter that is just so similar to myself. She loves sparkle, glitter, and the eighties. Yes….a decade that she has a love for…and wanted her birthday party all about it. We had so much fun planning and putting it together…we jammed to Pump up the Jam and Everybody Dance Now as we hung neon lanterns and black lights.

I loved that the day was born out of a cake plate. A yellow neon cake plate. When Jenny and I doing a photoshoot with her lovely cake plates, she pulled out a set of neon yellow amazing cake  plates…Estelle freaked out and instantly knew what she wanted to do for her birthday party…4 months away!

I also loved that I didn’t even chat with Jenny, owner of Jenny Cookies (and creative genius!), about what she was going to make for the party…and she showed up with the most amazing neon deserts, Estelle jumped for joy!!  If you are having a party, if you don’t know by now…this girl can rock out a dessert table!  Even if you aren’t exactly sure what you want…give her a few adjectives…and she can’t help but get her wheels turning. I’m not quite sure how she does it, but she managed to hit it right on the head with 2 words…80′s Neon.

We made a splatter painted back drop out of photography back ground paper and just splatter painted it with all kinds of black light reactive paint…I’m not sure if the kids or myself ha d more fun doing this!  We had our dance party in our Gym at Kaylee Eylander Photography in Lake Stevens…and we just had so much fun decorating it!

I died when I saw this amazing cake!  What more could a girl want then a huge hot pink bow on the top of her birthday cake!

We love having photobooths at our bday parties…just one of the benefits of having a photographer for  a mom, I guess!

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!

We had so much fun with Sadie and Josh today! Um…they are stinking fun!  Married for 9 years…when I asked how they met…Sadie told me that when  Josh saw her in driver’s ed class…he knew she was the one! How sweet is that!

Let me just say…that when I saw Sadie walk out to the shoot with her hair and make-up done….and this amazing wedding gown on, I literally fell over! It was all I could do! :) She was so stunning! Caryn Gresli made all my hair dreams come true…and I have no idea what you call it…but it was like she crawled into my brain and extracted exactly what I was hoping for! Thanks Caryn!!!

The chemistry between these two just made me so happy. After 9 yrs…still giggling. :)

Terri Fields, Owner of Embellish By Terri, rocked it once again with her signature lashes and gorgeous wedding make-up. If you are looking for a make-up artist with spunk…and someone who is going to bring some sunshine to your face…and your wedding day…Terri is your new best friend! PS>>>if your wondering what kind of accessories to wear with your dress…she can find the PERFECT thing to bejewel your day!

Once again…an amazingly fabulous vintage style dress from our favorite Bridal Shop, From the Gown Up. I seriously am tempted to steal this one!!!

Jenny Keller, of Jenny Cookies also brought her gorgeous A game when creating the look and feel of, not only the dessert table, but the whole shoot! She is fabulous!

Um…Stadium Flowers! Oh how I love your flower design. I could stare at and smell these peonies all day long!

What a fun idea for your guest table! You don’t have to use a plain round table! Drag out your favorite desk, dresser or end table and use it for your guests to wish you happy thoughts! I love this idea!

I loved Jenny’s idea to use these Seltzer Bottles for table numbers! So brilliant. Another great  DIY project!

Everyone loves a little treat to take away from a wedding! These DIY cookie favors are a such a nice touch to send home with your guests after spending the day at your wedding…or if they are Jenny Cookies…they will never make it home!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this dessert bar by Jenny Cookies…and the cake below just knocked my socks off (as all her cakes do) and the pink flowers was just so stinkin perfect!
