Marque & Brandon AND Megan & Jason

Whew! What a weekend! The wedding season is in full swing here in Seattle. We did back-to-back weddings this weekend.

On Saturday, our very own Rev. Liana married Marque & Brandon at the LDS Stake Center in Bellevue. It was a beautiful and sentimental wedding - with both Marque & Brandon sniffling through their vows. Among a number of things they promised to each other in their vows were backrubs, foot massages, and a kiss before they go to bed each night. They had a large wedding party (8 bridesmaids & groomsmen each) and a guest list of about 300. With the help of their family and friends, the facility was decorated beautifully with red, gold, and burgundy fabric draped from the center to the corners of the room. We can't wait to show you the pictures once they're ready!

On Sunday, Rev. Kate married Megan & Jason at the beautiful Kubota Gardens. What a beautiful setting for a ceremony! You don't even need to spend any money on floral arrangements for the ceremony as the backdrop of the ceremony area is filled with flowers and greenery. What was also neat were the long walkways through the gardens towards the ceremony area. It created perfect opportunities for picture taking of the wedding party as they made their way to the ceremony.




It was pouring rain for most of the morning, but it seemed that someone above knew right when the ceremony was starting because not 15 minutes before the start of the ceremony, the clouds parted, the rain stopped, and a bit of sunshine peeked through. It may have been the bride's own late grandfather - to whom a tearful and special dedication was also given during the ceremony.
