Fabulous Black and White Winter Wedding

At the beginning of January Dana and Allen celebrated their wedding day in great style! Their wedding ceremony at St. Thomas in Medina was followed by a short Persian Ceremony and a grandiose reception at the Four Seasons Hotel in Seattle. I just received these truly beautiful photos from Bradley Hanson Photography and couldn't wait to share - thanks Brad!

The church decor was defined by lots of candle light: we simply used tall aisle hurricane candles which were attached to every other pew and draped with green garlands and small white flower clusters. Additionally, lots of rose petals lined the aisle on both sides of the runner.


Everything about Dana and Allen's celebration was classy and simply gorgeous. The black and white reception decor was enhanced by over 500 hurricane and votive candles and a beautiful lighting installation.
"Understated Elegance" was the underlying style and feel of the event: various designs of high-end flower arrangements decorated each table, blooming orchid trees lined the walls of the ballroom, and a long head table consisting of a gorgeous 'runner' of red flowers created the focal point during the reception.

While the head table was the only table adorned with masses of red flowers, all guest tables were decorated with designs of white flowers and lots of white candles. We used alternating designs of luxurious mixed arrangements, composite style arrangements, and arrangements of all candles in various height.
Tall vases on pedestals containing tall branches blooming with white orchids lined the walls. Each vase was filled with rose petals and illuminated with a colored LED light.
