A Gorgeously Sassy Bride, a Handsome Groom, a Lovely Sunny Saturday and a Sprinkling of Tequila = One Awesomely Fun Mexican Themed Wedding {Olympia Wedding}

For true Olympia natives, Lakefair is a week of carnival rides, fair food, parades and fireworks–and it marks the midpoint of summer. For Haley and Rob, Lakefair will now hail their wedding anniversary! It was a perfect day, sunny and the right amount of wind. Under the shade of ancient trees in the backyard of Rob’s family home, sweet promises were made. Once the formalities were completed, it was onto some serious celebrating! The fiesta lasted well into the night fueled by great music, delicious food, and maybe just a tiny bit of tequila…. ayyyyyyyiyiyyiii!!! Love these two and the AWESOME friends and family! Thanks for allowing me to capture the crazy fun of your wedding day : ) xo

Summer time is for lemonade, smiles and weddings… {Olympia, WA Wedding}

Leave a reply

Summer has finally arrived in the Northwest, though for how long…? My darling wedding clients have to be prepared for rain or shine, when planning an outdoor wedding. Brittney and Dan were ready for either, and though it was nearly 90 degrees and my face was as red as a tomato, I was grateful for the beautiful summer afternoon. They are both artsy–graphic design and music fuels their creative spirits, and they were game for just about anything. There were so many sweet little details throughout–and the color palette was perfect: soft gray, white and bright yellow–summer! I brought along my vintage Schwinn and a couple of oversized balloons as props, and the results… adorableness! Congratulations you two! Enjoy Cancun : ) DSC_3805-Edit DSC_3813-Edit DSC_3807-Edit DSC_3827-Edit DSC_3852-Edit DSC_3975-Edit DSC_4518-Edit DSC_4564-Edit DSC_4594-Edit DSC_4612-Edit DSC_4633-Edit DSC_4663-Edit DSC_4688-Edit DSC_4696-Edit DSC_4711-Edit DSC_4705-Edit DSC_4733-Edit

Tropical NW Wedding…Muy Caliente! Olympia, WA { Grand Holiday Ballroom }

Leave a reply

Anny knew she wanted tropical colors for her wedding–but the perfectly tropical heat was a bonus for Washington! What a beautiful bride– a deep, rich brunette, she was striking with her luminous skin and dress. Alex is one lucky man! She had a team of creative family members helping, and you can see the delicious attention to detail throughout. Cynthia from Capitol Florist, brought the most amazing flowers to life–the bouquets looked like tropical fireworks! The day was lovely, we even happened upon the gelato cart from Mercato during photos. What a treat! Thanks to the entire wedding party for being such fun and up for climbing on an old caboose for a quick photo! So glad the State Patrol didn’t throw us off… Hope you two are enjoying Hawaii!!

A Midsummer Wedding, Indian Summer Country Club, Olympia, WA

It was a sun dappled afternoon for Rebecca and Alex’s wedding, that though still close to 80 degrees, had cooled considerably from the low 90’s earlier in the week! Thankfully there was plenty of shade to tuck into and every so often, a slight breeze would find it’s way through. With their blond curls, they made the most adorable couple. When Alex turned to see his bride for the first time, his smile was so unbelievably tender, eyes all around welled up.

Newbury Bay ( http://newburybay.com/ ) provided the most vibrant floral arrangements, and Angela from Weddings with Joy ( http://weddingswithjoy.com/ )was there to make certain the bridal party looked their best up to the last moment.
