Elaina and James
What can I say…This wedding lived up to the FUN that Elaina and James wanted! Elaina and James wanted their wedding day to be a true celebration of their relationship. They knew early on that they wanted to spend their lives together. After four years, living together, and having a beautiful daughter, they were finally able to tie the knot! Elaina and James’ beautiful fall backyard wedding day went smoothly with the help from family friends. With the wedding cake from cousins in Portland, to a family friends officiating, bartending and DJing, I felt honored to be a part of their event as a wedding vendor.
Getting Ready
Elaina and James got ready separately for their day making sure not to see each other. Elaina wore a classic tea length dress while her bridesmaids wore burnt orange dresses from Azalea. James and his groomsmen looked sharp in their wedding attire.
Wedding Ceremony
Elaina and James ceremony space welcomed guests to their seats with a wooden welcome sign and fall decor. Elaina and James had a beautiful floral arrangement as their backdrop to saying their vows.
The flower girl took her job very seriously and even cleaned up the flowers after the bride had walked down the wedding aisle and re-threw them as she went to the altar to partake in the unity sand ceremony .
Bridal Party
The bridal party was dressed to impress with burnt orange bow ties to match the bridesmaids dresses, gorgeous bouquets with sunflowers for the ladies and coordinating boutineers.
Bride and Groom Couples Portraits
Reception
Elaina and James went all out with their fun reception with a donut bar, money dance, first dances, the flower toss, and of course lots of dancing! One thing that I loved was that Elaina and James took the time to go around and get pictures with their family and friends. You could tell that there was so much love for this couple! (And I definitely ignored my wheat allergy for some donuts!!)
