“I know every bride says their wedding day was perfect, but ours really was!”
Laura and Trevor
Submitted by Emma Smith of emma jane photography
Trevor and I got married in the Dome Room at the Arctic Club in downtown Seattle. We searched high and low around Seattle looking for the right place to start our lives together. The Dome Room is breathtakingly beautiful and set the tone for a perfect evening.
Our flowers were done by Tanya of Elements in Bloom. Tanya was able to capture our likes using the perfect combination of colors and flowers. I especially LOVED how the bouquets and alter decorations turned out; they were both classy and gorgeous. Tanya was so knowledgeable and able to create beautiful designs that fit within our budget.
We were also lucky to have found a GREAT DJ. Brian and Jillian of WaveLink Music are extremely talented and I would recommend them to anyone. Brian made our wedding reception so much fun! The dance floor was completely packed the entire time all the way until the end of the night, when we eventually had to kick people out. His music choices combined with the ability to read the crowd made for a great celebration.
And finally, our photographers, Emma and Josh of emma jane photography were also a true pleasure to work with. I met them while trying on wedding dresses and immediately fell in love with them! They were QUICK to respond with any of my questions (and there were a lot of them…) and never made me feel as though I was an inconvenience. They are knowledgeable, organized, and FUN! Josh and Emma were amazing on the day of our wedding, it was like I had known them for years and they had become friends of the family. They captured our personalities the day of our wedding and I have received so many compliments on our wedding photos. Memories that we will forever cherish!
The entire day was absolutely wonderful! I woke up the next day and said to my husband, “Let’s do it again!” He just laughed…

Megan Novak and Mike Roberts

The Story (as told by Megan, the Bride):
Mike and I met when we were young, I am friends with his sister. Throughout the years we have been at parties together: church, family picnics, and other get-togethers. We have always been friends. When we both coincidentally ended long term relationships simultaneously, we were hanging out and made plans to go to six flags. We ended up getting a group to go. It was a blast! While we were at six flags we made plans for our first date. I honestly was not sure if Mike was really going to go through with it. But he would text me every day to remind me about our date. At that point I knew he really wanted to hang out with me.
Mike took me to the Mystic Aquarium for the afternoon and for dinner we went to S&P Oyster Company. When I was a little girl I always wanted a man to take me to dinner on the water; I thought that would be so romantic! (The funny thing is, Mike never knew this!) S&P Oyster is right on the river, it is so pretty with all the small boats going by! It was perfect. That day I knew I was going to marry him no matter what!
3 years later, on January 15th, Mike took me back to S&P Oysters. We walked around town and down to the boardwalk. When we got to the end…he was sweating. I knew something was up. He asked me to take a picture of the town with the pretty Christmas lights (I thought this was odd but did it anyway!). When I went to give him the camera back he was down on one knee with my ring! I was shaking I could not believe this was happening. Of course I said YES!!!
Our wedding was everything I had dreamed it would be – we chose our vendors based on recommendations of other couples and our first instincts upon meeting them. I had always wanted to be a princess meeting my prince on the day of my wedding! Everything that day was my fairy tale dream come true!

We simply cannot get enough of Ombre cakes. Ombre is the degradation of a color from dark to light – or light to dark. The ombre style can be seen on the outer decor of a cake. But the real beauty is when you cut into the cake to discover its beautiful layers of colors.
