Katie + Nate

A Late Summer Wedding at Lake Quinault Lodge

Katie and Nate’s Lake Quinault Lodge wedding was one of my favorite weddings to design EVER. Amber of A. Renee Weddings brought me on as their florist, and I am so happy she did. A dreamy color palette, beautiful location and one of the sweetest couples and families around. A true forever favorite. Thank you for working with me! - Carlee

Jennifer and Dan's mountain elopement was a show stopper day, filled with love, tears and so much laughter. An amazing team was put together and magic truly happened. Erika of The Greatest Adventure curates some of the most amazing weddings and elopements, she has a knack for putting teams and couples together, and I am so grateful she recommended Jennifer and Dan to me. 

Take a peek at these AMAZING photos from Henry below. 

Congrats you two!

Jordyn + Jeff

Venue: 1927 Events

Floral Design: Rusted Vase Floral Co.

 

Another amazing couple, adorable pups and some fun greenery ideas (as seen in Seattle Bride Magazine). Jordyn & Jeff were down to earth, funny as hell, and so in love. They also happened to be science enthusiasts, so we incorporated beakers, Erlenmeyer flasks, dinosaurs and other gizmos & gadgets in to their decor. SO FUN! To date it is one of my favorite designs, and I'm so grateful for the opportunity I had to work with them.

Thanks you Jordyn & Jeff!

Megan + John

Date: July 3, 2017

Location: The Foundry by Herban Feast, Seattle, WA

Planner: Molly Corr of Bridal Bliss

Photographer: Matthew Land Photography

Floral Design: Rusted Vase Floral Co.

Hair & Makeup: Belle Marie Salon

Catering: Herban Feast

DJ: Otto Matic

Rentals: CORT & Vintage Ambiance

Cake: The Sweet Side

Megan & John's wedding was the perfect "Seattle" wedding. Rooftop first looks at the Thompson Hotel, bridal party photos in Pioneer Square, followed by a reception at one of Seattle's top wedding venues, The Foundry by Herban Feast.

When Molly of Bridal Bliss reached out to me about Megan and John's florals, she described the day as "romantic and classic with a nod to the South". My DREAM client. Megan is originally from Georgia, so we thought it would be fun to incorporate some peaches in to the head table decor with just a "pop" of peach in all of the arrangements. 

Megan and John's day turned out to be one of my absolute favorites of the year. A beautiful combination of classic and romantic with a modern and natural twist. Matthew Land Photography captured everything beautifully. When I opened their gallery for the first time I squealed, (literally). Thank you Matthew Land, your work is STUNNING!

Take a peek for yourself, you won't be disappointed!
