It was an absolutely epic day – the day that these two read their vows to each other, exchanged rings, and became husband and wife. They make such a beautiful couple and in the lush, picturesque setting of Bloedel Reserve on Bainbridge Island, their wedding day was nothing shy of spectacular. With beautifully manicured grounds punctuated with towering cedar and fir trees, Bloedel Reserve is a place of profound beauty. It is one of those places that once you’ve visited, you’ll never forget how magnificent it was. And for these two, it is a place that now holds even more special meaning.
Their ceremony took place on the front lawn of the residence mansion, surrounded by greenery with the mansion in the back and a beautiful view of the Puget Sound behind the ceremony stage. It was an incredible scene and we loved the decor, with florals by Aria Style, injecting a beautiful mix of color and texture. The bride coming through the mansion doors and making her entrance for the ceremony was absolutely breathtaking!
From the ceremony filled with tears of joy and laughter, to the speeches and toasts at the reception where more tears of joy were shed and more laughs were had, and culminating in an epic dance party on a huge yacht overlooking Puget Sound, it was, without question and epic day. Congratulations to this lovely couple! Thank you so much for the honor of photographing your beautiful wedding and it truly was a pleasure working with you and your family and friends! We wish you all the best in your new lives together as husband and wife!
A special thank you also to the incredible vendor team that helped make this possible and especially to Jacky of Event Success for her talent and expertise to plan such an incredible wedding!
