This part of Washington State is close to the border of Canada – it’s really a slice of Pacific Northwest heaven. Julie and Sam fell in love with this spot the minute they laid their eyes on it. How could you not! Check out the amazing scenery. I had a fabulous time photographing this amazingly fun and picturesque wedding.

What a unique and creative hanger. I love it when my brides get crafty likes this. It’s SO much better then the cheap, plastic hangers that gowns come on from the alterations. I always recommend my brides bringing a non-plastic hanger to where they are getting ready. Why would we want to take a photo of a gorgeous gown on a .50 cent hanger?

Julie’s sweet mom was beyond happy to see her daughter get married. Many happy tears were shed by her.. before, during and right after the wedding. It was incredibly endearing.

Just behind them is good ol’ Canada! Such a gorgeous location to have a wedding ceremony.

Sam is about to get “iced!” That’s Smirnoff Iced… Julie spoofed him and all the guests LOVED it. If you don’t know what we are talking about (because I certainly was confused at the time, read the rules here! It’s pretty silly.
