Anna and Brandon braved the same stormy weather that Brooke and Erik did, their elopement celebrations were on the same day! Luckily they had a great photo/elopement planning team that helped prepare them for the unexpected. They embraced it with joyful hearts and an adventurous spirit (you never know what weather you’re going to get in the North Cascades!) and ended up with a wonderful story to tell. These two were such a blast to work with and had so much trust in the creative process, with some fantastic ideas of their own: hat florals anyone?! A+B, big hugs from Washington, you’re awesome!

M+M! This fun, vibrant couple shared my love of the Pacific Northwest and FERNS, and requested lots and lots of them. Can do, my friends! Their venue is a gorgeous wooded and perfectly landscaped property just 15 minutes outside the city, full of lush plants and a peaceful feel without the long drive. The ferns fit right in among the towering trees. Their designs prioritized local blooms, included tons of dahlias, cosmos, roses and so much more. Their happy color palette set the tone for the killer party they threw for all their guests.

Lush, colorful, elegant, wildflowers… you name it, this wedding HAD IT. All the personal touches and the joyful color palette was so true to them and felt so authentic. One of my favorite days at the classic Lairmont Manor. Don’t forget to check out PeeWee, the cutest little pup of honor!
