Stylish Winter Wedding at Canlis Restaurant

Today I am very excited to share pictures of a stylish winter wedding at Canlis Restaurant in Seattle. I recently received these gorgeous images from Laurel McConnell: I was so excited to finally get a chance to work together with this fun and talented Seattle photographer!
Brian and Elen got married at Canlis Restaurant in early January of this year. Canlis is THE Seattle venue for an intimate wedding, offering some of the best food and views the city has to offer.
Elen and Brian envisioned simple elegance for their wedding ceremony and reception and liked clean and modern designs in white and green with accents of silver and black (for those of you who know me, I am of course a big fan of classy, neutral color palettes!). Designing their long reception table was so much fun - but see for yourself - lots of detail shots below:

For Elen we designed a modern bouquet in white with hydrangea, callas, and phaleanopsis orchids mixed with black and silver foliage

The ceremony featured 2 large trees blooming with orchids, brightly illuminated from below to give them a beautiful glow

We had a lot of fun designing several fun and modern floral pieces for the long reception guest table. Tall glass vases filled with white phaleanopsis orchids created beautiful focal points, mixed with several lower designs - all of a different look and feel - lining the table center creating a luxurious floral table runner.

We added fun and whimsical details into each of the designs, like wire-wrapped vases, wire spheres inside the vases, or small cubes clustered together containing single orchid blooms.
