Such a beautiful sunny afternoon on the Silverdale waterfront overlooking Dyes Inlet. As I arrived, the bride was adding finishing touches to make sure everything was just perfect. The tables were dressed with classic white hydrangea, roses and pencil starfish with pink accents. The palette of pink and white was brought right into the attire with the bridesmaids in pink JCrew dresses and wearing simple starfish necklaces. The bride’s gown from Pearls & Lace in Burien was gorgeous, it looked like ripples of water…her hair adorned with a single stargazer lily…so beautiful. During the ceremony they poured colored sand to symbolize their unity…a meaningful piece of art to remind them of their families blending together. After a little food and wine it was time for the first dance and then on to speeches and their amazing applique cake by Lori Coulter which was a modern twist on a classic, white with sea-inspired decorations. It was such a great day, filled with fun and in between filled with tranquil moments shared between family and friends.
A chance meeting walking out of a pub and four years later they were walking down the aisle. I have to say this couple really knows how to have fun…now its on to Mardi Gras and married life. 
Also thank you so much to my second shooter, Mindy Capps, for capturing some fantastic moments during Melissa & Michael’s special day. You were awesome!
