Brenna and James are truly nature lovers and it really showed in their wedding details. Their wedding ceremony was, of course outdoors, with a sweeping view of the Puget Sound. Vast blue waters with a sky to match, it was the perfect day! For this special occasion nature was in attendance, little birds were all around, an eagle flew overhead and a yellow butterfly to match her wedding colors made an appearance. There were even two deer in attendance only 40 feet away. They stayed for the whole ceremony. I wanted to jump and wave to the bride and groom and say, “Hey, look! Isn’t that amazing?!” but I somehow managed to remain quiet until afterwards when I declared Brenna a distant relative of Snow White!

Brenna is quite elegant and James adores her.  They’re both really smart not to mention beautiful!  He twirled her in a dance on their own private artistic brick circle in the middle of a huge open field surrounded by tall oak and fir trees with a peek-a-boo view of the Sound.  Both of them and their surrounding were breathtaking. They were so happy to be married and excited to have photos of every bit of the day…a perfect match for us!

they played the Shoe-ley-wed game where the DJ asks them questions and they answer by raising the shoe of the person they think fits the question best but they’re back to back so neither sees the other ones answers.  The guests were all cracking up.  It was video recorded though.  James covered his own back though by answering with both shoes up to some questions.  (I told you he was smart.) 1f609   It’s a dangerous game when the DJ asks things like, “Who’s most likely to steal the last cookie from the cookie jar” or “Who’s most likely to be caught speeding”.

The peanut butter and jelly cupcakes were delicious. The vegan food was delish! Everyone enjoyed the sun and everywhere I turned people were smiling, joking and hugging.

The day was perfect.

Best wishes to Brenna and James on many happy memories to come!

Special thanks to these vendors who made the day so special!

This is how we met: (Of coure I remembered them. I instantly liked both of them!)
Hello there! We met at the wedding expo at the Tacoma Dome, and were very impressed by your work and your friendly yet laid back attitudes. We are the ones who have a maid of honor who is also a professional photographer, and will need a full-event photographer who will be happy to work with another person (maybe you remember us?). Are you still available on Saturday July 6th? We would love to get together with you or just discuss expectations. Thank you, Brenna Moyer
