Rain is a Blessing on Your Wedding Day -- Lars and Lexie are very Blessed!

Our Indian Summer is a memory ... autumn is fully established in the Pacific Northwest.  When I arrived at the Salish Lodge and Spa, it was drizzling a bit but lovely.

Lexi and Lars wanted a simple ceremony to make their marriage legal.  They thought it so appropriate to wed at Snoqualmie Falls, since it was a place that was dear to their hearts.

Elizabeth was one of the witnesses. 

Ed was the other witness.

The two were delighted that their dear friend Tina was there too.










And, all were ready to brave the rain, which increased as the evening progressed.

Off we went to find the perfect wedding site!





It was decided the Overlook was THE PLACE.

Yes, you can see the ghost of the falls in the background!

Actually, it was lovely, sweet, simple, personal, heartwarming, playful moment.  Happiness was as abundant as the raindrops!!! 

Then, back to the Falls Terrace Room to sign the marriage certificate and to toast to Lexie and Lars union.

Great fun!

Wishing the two many moments of joy, adventure, friendship and true love!!

10-11-12: A Day of Power, A Day of Choice, A Perfect Day to Wed!

It was a beautiful day.
Carlos and Mona-Rae were ready to wed.

Brides and grooms want an auspicious day to wed.  At times, numerology can be useful.  Days like 9-10-11 or 10-11-12 are so very popular.  According to Janice Lynch, Psychic, the number 10 represents completing a cycle.  It is a time to understand lessons learned and to decide where to go next.

Number 11 is a double digit of the same number, which reflects a power number.

Eleven relates to decision making and choices.

The number 12 is composed of 1 + 2 = 3.  Three refers to who is going with you.

All together, 10-11-12, is a day when the question of what is really important to you, where do you want to go and who do you want to go with you should be considered.

The view of Snoqualmie Falls is quite dramatic.

For Carlos and Mona-Rae, it was a self-evident truth.  They wished to marry -- to begin their life together as husband and wife.

The two wanted to wed a location that held natural beauty and simple elegance.  When they came upon the Salish Lodge and Spa, the choice was easy to make.

The red of the trees was vibrant!

Plus, autumn is Mona-Rae's favorite time of the year.  She was thrilled with the brilliant colors of the trees.

Everyone was quite happy!

The two planned an intimate ceremony and celebration with only family and the closest of friends.

We had so much fun checking out the various places for photographs.  There are so many of them!

Here they are on the way to The Attic.










To the restaurant where they had reservations.

And, outside the restaurant.













Of course we had to walk to see the Falls and to take in the surrounding gardens.

Wishing the Mr. and Mrs. a life filled with love and happiness that sustains them both for many, many, many years.  May they be joyful and walk hand in hand through it all.
