There is no greater joy for me than to watch two incredible people wed, but it’s even more special when you know the couple so closely. I had the honor to have known our bride Chelsea for over 10 years from her collegiate days at Washington State University when I was her Alpha Phi sorority advisor. Then I was lucky enough to have her serve on my team as an intern and then really got to know her even more and develop a very close relationship and remained in touch after.

So it was no big surprise when Paul popped the question that she reached out asking if I can be part of her dream team vendor squad for her destination wedding at Sun Mountain Lodge in Winthrop, WA. last September.

To best describe this all Coug wedding was simple, Boho Chic and everything about this wedding fit this theme perfectly. From the incredible flowers by Dandy Flower Co. to the ceremony set-up in the round (which you know is my favorite) to the reception layout down at the base of the mountain at the lake, this was just about the perfect wedding.

There were so many things to obsess about this wedding, from the bride’s request that all her female guests wear fascinators, an ode to her love of them. I even donned one for the celebration and I know why she loves them.

Now, we have to talk about the ceremony, performed by the bride’s late father’s best friend. Filled with both happy and sad tears and great stories and even blue raspberry ring pops. All of this, combined with the breathtaking views over the Methow Valley provided memorable moments for all to treasure and remember for always.

We were truly in for a treat for the reception, complete with a spectacular lightning show off into the distance and the best dance party to end the evening.
