Amanda and Rick: Lairmont Manor

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!

Jenny and Nate: Snowy Winter Shoot

I have a soft spot for the winter months. I love the magic of snowfall, the unique grey lighting, the opportunities for getting ultra cozy, all of it. The PNW looks amazing in all seasons! These two were game to participate in this gorgeous winter shoot, staying warm with a fluffy capelet and snuggling each other. I love the way these photos turned out!

Madeline and Coleman: Lairmont Manor

A flowery extravaganza, a dress and tiara fit for a princess, a glamorous purple color palette, and a stunning Old-World venue combine for a magical fairyland feel. A flower-heavy arch meant to mimic the door to a secret garden was the star of the show (besides the couple of course!) and was literally dripping with greenery. The scent of all of these flowers was just heavenly, and their beauty was perfectly captured by B Jones Photo.

Robyn and Andrew: Creekside Celebrations

This venue is just fantastic. Barn setting that is decorated inside in such a way that if you didn’t know it was a barn, you wouldn’t be able to tell. Creekside is named such because it is literally right next to a beautiful flowing water source. The towering trees, ferns, and welcoming atmosphere is the best. R + A chose a deep-toned, nuanced color palette with lots of texture, and a massive garland to wrap around the on-site arbor. Chef’s kiss.

Sherry and Brian: Lairmont Manor

Sherry and Brian are both fans of The Addams Family vibes an October wedding is great for, and wanted to incorporate this theme into their florals (but with their own special touch, of course!). We used black feathers, deep burgundy dahlias, black calla lilies, purple jewel-toned roses and carnations, monkey tail ferns and the most perfect blackberry sorbet scabiosas to round it all out. The result is something unexpected, completely unique, and totally Sherry and Brian. This day was chock-full of personal elements, read on to see them all!

Antonia and Matt: Christianson's Nursery

Only the best things to say about these two and this day! A gorgeous venue, a perfect early October day (75 degrees!!), multi-faceted color palette, dream couple and epic vendor team! It’s hard to describe the feeling you get as a vendor when all aspects of the day come together, all the vendors are working as a well-oiled machine to make dreams come true and help each other out, and the magic that’s being created. Being a part of a large team bringing your small part of the vision into the whole to design something unique and personal is magical. Check out this gorgeous day photographed by Courtney Bowlden and her team. Planning by Evergreen Wedding Planning at Christianson’s Nursery.

Jess and Rachel: The Saltbox Barn

THESE TWO OMG. Such a vibrant working experience, and one that I’ll be thinking about for years to come. So much joy (and trust, which I appreciate the most!) in the planning process, gorgeous flowers, and lovely humans. I love the Saltbox Barn as a venue, it can accommodate the most rustic country barn wedding all the way up to a modern, minimalist vibe. These two decorated it with deep dark tones, tons of texture, and personal touches. My favorites!

Shelby and Ryan: Artist Point

Shelby and Ryan planned their entire elopement in 4 weeks, from Texas no less! They included their immediate family and ventured up to Artist Point on Mount Baker, with the help of their elopement planner/photographer. They wanted a slightly draping bouquet, with tons of local blooms in a classic burgundy, blush and white color palette. I also sent them off with some loose blooms for their cake and picnic table garland, which they arranged themselves when they got up to the mountain. Baker was serving up some looks for them, check out their gorgeous photos!
