Gretchen and Dane were married this past Saturday, on August 8th at Dane's parents' home and despite a few moments of sprinkling rain, the day turned out beautifully!
Gretchen had a very elegant style involving a clear topped tent, shades of silver, green and white and lots of candlelight. We installed hanging globe tealights with larger candles that flickered like stars and reflected off the tent. White lights lined the tent parimeter and candles adorned each table. The end result was a gorgeously warm and elegant tent that showcased the moon and the fireworks that arrived later in the evening.
The wedding cake was an amazing red velvet, chocolate ganache, buttercream cake made by the bride's friend Audrey. It was honestly one of the best wedding cakes I've tasted and looked beautiful!
The beautiful flowers, bouquets and boutonnieres were created by JQ's A New Leaf in downtown Bellingham.
We had light sprinkles of rain before the ceremony began but once the bridal party headed down the aisle, the skies stayed dry and provided a beautiful soft backdrop for the ceremony.
The reception started with an hour of cocktails and then the tent opened. I still can't believe that we fit over 200 guests in the tent comfortably. These photos show you the calmer side of the evening :) Once the toasts began, guests were ready to party which was only helped by the tequila shots served in custom shot glasses to the guests for the toast. The party continued into the night with a full dance floor, late night snacks and fireworks by the neighbors and the groomsmen to celebrate Gretchen and Dane.
Gretchen and Dane, I hope you both enjoyed your wedding! I know I did and I've enjoyed working with you both to make it all happen! Congratulations and a long and happy life to you both!
