Gina in a fairytale gorgeous dress and Faryar in patent leather two tone-wingtips, great accents and comments on a creative, fun, frivolous, lovey day.  They were married at Lakeside Gardens in the patio gazebo with friends and family watching the ceremony which was performed by BJ Anderson. of Anytime Anywhere Weddings.

We started the day with the first look in the small lakeside gazebo, (the 'back' lakeside) and then strolled the gardens and the island creating some great images.

The flowers and lanterns were dreamed up and provided by Gina and Faryar themselves. The caterer was Lakeside Gardens.  The Dj was quite the talented dancer (think 'Hammer Time') and was a friend of the Bride and Groom.  The cake was created by Larson's Bakery.  It had one of the most obscure quotes incorporated into the design that I have ever experienced, . . .  still don't understand, suppose I never will, . . . look at the images for more on THAT.  

This was a wonderful celebration and we're glad that we got to be there.

The bouquets were created by Kern Park Floral.  The Officiant / MC / Directors of all things Bridal were Paula Lewis and her partner Trish from Affordable Elegance.  The delicious meal was catered by Nicolette's Catering.

This was a wonderful day for Theresa and Elizabeth and for us!  We had the opportunity to document a love story, and to go for a walk in one of Portland's very best gardens.

Courtney and Danny were married at one of the Columbia Gorge's hidden wonderlands, Bridal Veil Lakes.  Surrounded by beauty and landscaped grounds, with a wilderness motif, Courtney and Danny 

stood before an arbor overlooking Bridal Veil Lake and as the sun was setting they recited their vows before family and friends.  What an incredible setting for a wedding. Granted it's a bit of a drive and it's easy to take a wrong turn going up the mountain if you do not pay close attention to the signs but, it's worth the effort!

The flowers were provided by Wendy at Clark County Floral.  The Officiant was Mike, a friend of the Bride and Groom.  He did a wonderful Ceremony.  The dj/mc for the ceremony and reception was Tauren Blackman of On Track Entertainment. He provided excellent direction for the party!  The cake was created by the Helen Bernhard Bakery.   We shared the experience with James from DreamCapture Media who provided video services.

That was quite a party guys, you rock, and apparently fly!
