Real Weddings: Sarah + Josh

Posted 03/15/2010 by Ami in casual weddings, real weddings \ 9 comments

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Heather Gilson’s photography, or about the spirit and joy that I see in the photos from Sarah and Josh’s Bainbridge Island wedding.

As Sarah describes in her wedding graduate post on A Practical Wedding, Sarah and Josh’s wedding began with quite a snag, as two of the ferries that run across Puget Sound from Seattle to …

Real Weddings: Laurel + Darren, Part II

As I said earlier today, I completely flipped for the details in Laurel and Darren’s gorgeous Seattle wedding.  Their amazing photographer, Michèle M. Waite, captured everything so beautifully, and the details were engineered by Steven Moore Designs.

The reception, held at Seattle’s Arctic Club Hotel, featured this gorgeously romantic cake buffet.  Not only do I love the small cakes themselves, but …

Today’s wedding, brought to us by the uber-talented Michèle M. Waite, is so lovely.  I fell for the details the moment I laid eyes on it!

Laurel is a radiant bride and this series of portraits is absolutely stunning.  The lighting is so perfectly dramatic.

Love this shot of the bridesmaids – in matching robes no less!

Real Wedding: Yvonne + David

When I first laid eyes on Yvonne and David’s incredible wedding pictures…they took my breath away. I immediately contacted her about featuring her wedding on EAD and she generously agreed. She described planning the wedding as a true “labor of love”, which clearly shows in all the personal and incredible details below.
