By request...

We've had many requests for details about Jeny and Jeff's chic wedding at Gasworks Park/Seattle Aquarium last year. Since we didn't have a blog then, we wanted to share details of their fabulous wedding with you!

Last September we had the fantastic opportunity of working with Jeny and Jeff to create a memorable wedding ceremony with sweeping views of Seattle from Gasworks Park. With most of the guests having flown in from out of state, Jeny and Jeff certainly gave them an elegant and dazzling night to remember. Theirs was first event at the Seattle Aquarium since the remodel, complete with a floor-to-ceiling, oversized fish tank. While guests watched ferries pass by and the sun set, they noshed on roasted tomato bisque (served in shot glasses), Northwest oysters, pepper seared sirloin with gorgonzola, salmon Croques Monsieur, and Spicy Ahi Tuna Tartar on the Aquarium's back deck. While taking advantage of the fine wine selection provided personally by Jeff, guests were able to touch starfish and watch the jellyfish flutter by in the neon tanks.

A 9-piece Balkan band played during a plated meal of New York steaks and Alaskan Troll King Salmon, followed by an assortment of Trophy Cupcakes.

Nick and I had the eagle-eye viewing point from above the reception area and watched guests dance well into the night and gawk at the amazing fish tank. It was truly a night to remember!

Chris & Mai Lee tied the knot!

We started working with Chris and Mai Lee 18 months ago and loved every minute of planning with them. When we began planning, Mai Lee was serving in Iraq, which posed some time zone challenges, but the entire process was fantastic. Chris and Mai Lee are an amazing and deserving couple and had a beautiful ceremony performed by Joel Whitaker yesterday near the Montlake Cut on Lake Washington (the weather was gorgeous!). Mai Lee was a stunning bride and was complimented by white lisianthus, green hydrangeas, lavender and cream roses, and Bells of Ireland.

Dinner, dancing, and a great time followed at the Museum of History and Industry - it was such a fun venue and fit their bubbly and fun personalities so well!

With nearly every guest visiting from across the country, MOHAI showcased our city well and was a treat for guests. Seasoned in Seattle catered a fabulous and intimate dinner and DJ Mike Garcia spun well into the night. Guests were treated to a special delivery of Krisy Kreme doughnuts after an evening of dancing and cocktails and the happy couple left in style, complete with a sparkler bon voyage from friends and an elegant ride to their hotel in a vintage Daimler limo from British Motor Coach. We wish Chris and Mai Lee the very best and look forward hearing more about their next adventures! -More photos to come from the photographer!

A fun, personalized trend for your cake table!

We first featured Windswept Art Farm's wedding shrine at the 2005 Fall Bridal Spectacular on our dessert table. The shrine got many oohs and aahs and created a buzz, with curious brides and grooms asking how they could get one for their big day. Well, Windswept Art Farm will custom create a shrine to put on your cake table to spark fun conversation from your guests. They can also be personalized for a groom's "cake" and for wedding showers, baby showers, birthdays, and just for fun. WAF's shrines are personalized for each client and are a reflection of your personality, hobbies, and wedding celebration. These shrines are not only fun, whimsical, and unique, but will last forever as a memento of your wedding day. Contact us or Windswept Art Farm to get your shrine personalized!

Erica & Rodney tied the knot!

Last Saturday we celebrated Erica and Rodney's wedding. They are such a great couple - we began working with them last fall and from the start they wanted to focus on showing their guests an amazing time. Their romantic ceremony took place at the University Presbyterian Church where the sun poked out here-and-there to shine through the stained glass windows. Erica looked so happy and radiant and Rodney looked dapper in his tux.
Guests then headed to Court in the Square for a night of dancing, laughter, and overall celebration. DJ Drew Hobson spun a fun mix that kept guests young and old dancing into the night. We turned the room into a magical, glowing evening with floating candles and beautifully scented gardenias in the reflection pool, and tied in the spring feel with hydrangeas and centerpieces with willow branches and apples. The candy buffet was also a huge hit! Guests took home cute bags of candy and hand-stamped thank you notes.
Nick and I loved working with Kate McElwee who took these amazing photos - more to come on our website soon. She's a joy to work with and of course, I love her British accent! Her tone and demeanor had guests feeling comfortable enough to act goofy in the cool photo booth she set out - it turned out to be so great! The end of the night was marked with Erica and Rodney leaving through a sparkler arch with their family and friends wishing them well.
We wish Erica and Rodney nothing but the best in their new life together. They're now enjoying their honeymoon in Jamaica!
