It was great to be in Bellingham especially as it cooperated with Anne and Derek’s desire to have their outdoor wedding in October. Somewhat chilly but all dry, the events for the day proceeded without a hitch. Relatively new, The Bellwether Hotel is a great place for a party! We know this because the couple’s [...]

They threw a great party for Rebecca and Joe at the Seattle Tennis Club! Known for the prominent estate and reception areas on the banks of Lake Washington, we love it for the elegant decor and service. As usual, there were plenty of were the raves surrounding the beautiful and luxurious cake from Madison Park [...]

The sun was shining at Beaver Lake Lodge for Leah & Scott’s wedding. (The spot was especially perfect, since it was just a few doors down from her grandparent’s cabin where she spent a lot of time growing up.) Kaycee Parker Events tied it all up in a pretty bow and delivered a [...]

An outdoor wedding by the lake is what Sarah and Abhaya wanted and having it in August was a sure bet, right? Well, THIS August was anything but warm and dry so they prepared for the indoors until the skies cleared and the sun came out! However, Lake Wilderness Lodge is perfect either way, situated [...]

Zydeco dancers, Julie and Tim, were to be surrounded by good friends and family – and they came as far as Santiago, Chile, and other parts of the our country to celebrate and dance with the couple. At the Swedish Cultural Center, guests were treated to great views of Seattle and Lake Union while the [...]

For kids, the biggest, newest, softest and funnest part of Bellevue Square – and recently kid-tested to be sure of these claims – is Kid’s Cove on the 3rd floor above Center Court. Complete with a soft bench seat/protective wall and tables w/chairs, moms can leave their stroller at the valet station (yeah, you read [...]

What a fabulous wedding at such a great place! We hadn’t been to Bassetti Crooked Arbor Gardens in Woodinville before–and can’t wait to go back!! Sarah Jane and Maarten planned a very warm and friendly celebration–something even the pouring rain couldn’t put a damper on. Pearl Django is my new favorite band and played [...]

Green was the color of the day but elegance and modern art ruled throughout Kate and Eric’s wedding at the Seattle Art Museum’s Olympic Sculpture Park. The structure’s glass walls gave us lots of light to play with and the high ceilings gave the event an outdoor’s openness. Large art pieces on the landscape and [...]

Remember Norman Vincent Peale? The guy who wrote the inspirational best-seller, “The Power of Positive Thinking”, and the 45 other books focused on his faith and the role positive thinking has in improving lives? Well, in 1945, in his spare time, he also started Guideposts and I remember waiting in my dentist’s office as a [...]
