Vashon Island Ceremony & Backyard Reception Micro Wedding

My last wedding of 2020. It was so incredibly magical. The wedding started with a ceremony on Vashon Island where a dense layer of clouds laid on top of the Puget Sound while I set up. By the time the ceremony started, the clouds lifted for a perfect sunny ceremony. While the ceremony was happening on Vashon Island, I took to ferry over to Tacoma where I set up the Bride’s backyard into a micro wedding. Lu, the bride, has now turned into one of my good friends and #1 supporter. It is weddings like this that make me so damn happy to do this for a living.

A Rainy Fall Seattle Backyard Micro Wedding

This backyard Covid micro wedding was one of my favorite weddings of 2020. It was dreary and misting and so Seattle weather. The family built out the backyard with a tent, dance floor, and a stunning ceremony space right under the giant tree in the middle of the yard. My first tree installation ever. It was definitely a challenge but I am so happy with how it all turned out.

Covid Micro Wedding in Beautiful Air Bnb in Leavenworth, Washington

After deciding if they should postpone to next summer, Chelsea & Eric decided to rent an air bnb in Leavenworth, Washington and have a micro wedding. The air bnb was stunning and sat overlooking the Wenatchee River. The morning started out as a beautiful crisp and sunny day but it quickly turned to high winds and freezing rain. As the vendors went back and forth deciding what to do, a break in the rain came through and we quickly hustled everyone out to the ceremony spot to get these two married. Honestly, it was perfect. Here are a few photos from their day.

Intimate Covid Wedding in the Desert of Central Washington

I’m not even sure where to begin with writing this blog. This was one of the most special days of my life because not only was I the florist but also a bridesmaid and the officiant for my best friends, Will & Kenz. As we all know, Covid-19 really screwed up all of our plans for summer 2020. But as it became more and more evident that Kenz and Will wouldn’t get the big wedding they had planned, Kenz didn’t care about anything but marrying Will. And that’s exactly what she did. We were able to create the most magical & beautiful desert inspired wedding on a private residence in central Washington. Kenz has an incredible eye for design and every single detail of the wedding was absolutely perfect. Every time I look back on these photos I’m blown away again at how freaking stunning it was. In the midst of chaos and unpredictability, 30 of us were able to escape into the love story of Kenz & Will. Lots of tears, lots of laughter, so much smiling, and a LOT of dancing (until 4am to be exact). I hope you enjoy scrolling through this gallery & can feel the immense amount of love that was shared on this day.
