Chris and Morgan Wed Medieval Style

Kent and I had so much fun this afternoon!  Chris and Morgan celebrated their ceremony which was witnessed by their parents and friend.  





 

The attire was creative, the people were friendly, the event was joyous!

Chris and Tim arrived in street clothes and transformed into their medieval alter egos.

Soon after, Morgan arrived and stayed out of sight so she could make her grand entrance with her father, Rene.












The ceremony was a sweet one.  












Vows were exchanged and a ring given to seal their promises.

And, the way the bride and groom looked at each other was totally engaging.














Afterwards, a hand washing ritual took place.  The idea is that the past is cleared away and the two begin their life together anew.














And, then the kiss!

Brett & Meredith - Love & Marriage at the Waterfront Grill

Meredith and Brett live in Arizona but wanted to marry in Seattle in an intimate ceremony - just immediate family and a few close friends.

Meredith is very interested in wedding traditions and was in the process of writing a book on marriage when she contacted us about her own wedding.

It was very important that she and Brett have creative license in terms of the wording of their wedding ceremony ... and it was great fun co-creating with them. Although the planning took place long distance, it was certainly a warm and personal experience with great results!

There were definitely some traditions that were important to the couple. One was the father of the bride presenting the groom with his daughter's old shoes (Meredith's favorite boots, in this case). This ancient tradition reflects the bride is no longer in her parent's care.

Next, Meredith elected to present her beloved with a flower, reminiscent of the tradition of a Lady giving the Knight she favored with a token of her esteem. Knight Brett wore the flower with pride, displaying his Lady’s colors and making it known to all his love for her is true.

Vows were spoken, rings were exchanged, Brett and Meredith were delighted to be married. The group of us then walked to the water, took a pebble, placed our wishes for the couple's happiness into the stones and all together tossed them into Puget Sound. The ripples of each stone intermingled, reflecting the couple's love twining with each important person in their lives.

Bride & groom, best woman Cathy and man of honor Michael enjoy the air after the wedding ceremony, umbrellas in hand ... it is Seattle after all!
