Marci and Chris were married last Saturday at Club Paesano / Cedarville Park in Gresham. Club Paesano is an old fraternal social club off of Powell Blvd. It is surrounded by acres of park, beautiful trees and a meandering creek. The meeting hall itself is a beautiful faux log cabin style structure with facilities for quite a large group if necessary.
Marci's preps and portraits included shots on a Harley provided by a family friend, while Chris and the groomsmen tried to stay out of sight in the woods. Marci and Chris did not see each other prior to the ceremony, they were both getting pretty anxious by the time the ceremony was to begin. Marci's father walked her down the aisle, which was an event made more special by the fact that Marci's dad has not walked for two years. What a special moment that was. Chris' brother performed a short but wonderfully personal ceremony.
After the ceremony the family met in the park for family group pictures, while the guests visited, enjoyed the bar and made good use of the family-made custom photo booth. The large fun collection of props were a big hit and kept everyone entertain while we took some lovely bride and groom portraits in the park.
The cake was accompanied by lots and lots of yummy treats. My personal favs were the cheesecake lollipops and the mini pecan pies, yum. Catering by Laurie, who provided the buffet as well as the cake and desserts, never fails to wow the eyes as well as the mouth.
The party was great. How could it be other wise considering there were lots of dress-up ops and even a limbo snake, . . . it was quite an adventure!
Thanks guys for a great evening!
