Imago Ballroom

Imago Theater is a great location that I went swing dancing many times. I was pleasantly surprised when I heard Vibrant Table and Food in Bloom transformed the Imago Theater Ballroom in to a wonderful place to have wedding reception and ceremonies. A great collaboration!

We took our camera to the open house at Imago Ballroom last week and took some pictures so you can see how beautiful the location is. I love how creative the team at Vibrant Table and Food in Bloom are - to emphasize that this is a theater as well, they had actors in costumes roaming. The food was of course delicious.

Other vendors that contributed: West Coast Drape, Blush Du Jour Furniture rental, and The Party Place

Wedding Vow Renewal at El Farallon, Cabo San Lucas

I have known Allie and Corey for a very long time, since I photographed their wedding. Since then, I was honored to photograph their children growing up and now their wedding vow renewal at El Farallon, Cabo San Lucas Capella Pedregal. It was a relaxed event, with a sunset vow renewal ceremony at the beach at Cabo San Lucas and a fun reception at the El Farallon restaurant.

Lauren and Ryan’s Portland Lan Su Classical Chinese Gardens Wedding

Lauren and Ryan tied the knot at the gorgeous Portland Lan Su Classical Chinese Gardens. It was a super fun wedding, coordinated by Kerry Garrow of Signature Weddings and Events. The other vendors for this Portland Chinese Gardens wedding were like a best of the wedding vendors in Portland. Lauren and Ryan wanted a Portland theme wedding and allocated enough time for us to go around town on Portland wedding pedicabs (Portland Pedicabs). We got some amazing pictures going around town. The beautiful bridesmaids and handsome groomsmen did their part in making the day run smoothly as well! The getting ready was at Hotel Lucia. After Hotel Lucia, the wedding moved to Chinese Gardens. I had some unique toasting images and instead of the cake, they had amazing cupcakes from Cupcake Jones. The crowd danced until late hours with help from amazing DJ Eric Wright of All Wright Music. Delicious food was served on bamboo platters - perfect for the theme and the environment, thanks to Vibrant Table Catering and Events. Flowers are by A Floral Affair.

Zenith Vineyard Wedding of Kylie and Jim

This is as close to perfection as it gets! Gorgeous couple, great planner, elegant flowers, beautiful location! Zenith Vineyard is one of the prettiest location to have an Oregon vineyard wedding. The weather was perfect for a summer wedding, not too hot, not too cold!  I love how Jennifer Fox from Perfect Planning was able to bring the vision of Kylie and Jim to reality, with help from Geranium Lake Flowers. There was a blend of antlers and elegant flowers, in fact, you can see how Jim’s boutonniere mimicked the antlers. Great job! Another cool idea was to have a surprise groom’s cake! You need to check it out! It was a bighorn sheep!

Working with wonderful vendors makes a wedding run very smoothly - and this was basically a best of Portland production!  I love working with Event Cosmetics and Katherine Sealy was there herself, making sure the final touches were perfect. Pressue Point band is probably one of the most fun bands I have listened to at weddings and you can see the energy of the dance floor from the pictures. Cake was by Dessert Labs.  The catering by Vibrant Table was excellent - flower, as I mentioned before, are by Geranium Lake flowers! I was very impressed with so many of the details that I included more than I usually do! Kylie’s dress is from Divine Designs, and by Elizabeth Fillmore!

Enjoy and leave a comment!

McMenamins Edgefield wedding of Kristen and Eric

Kristen and Eric’s fall wedding was at one of my favorite venues, McMenamins Edgefield Blackberry Hall! The type of people that have their wedding there tend to be super fun as well. This was no exception. Tons of dancing and fun!
ps. there is a picture of Kristen with some cash towards the middle - some people crashed the wedding and then gave them $80 bucks.

Loft at the Red Building at Astoria Wedding - Darcey and Ben

Darcey and Ben had a little rainy but colorful Astoria wedding at the Loft at The Red Building (and their own residence!) photographed by my associate, Arin. There were many cute touches at this Oregon coast wedding. Darcey got Ben custom cufflinks that had their dogs on them as wedding present. Ben returned the favor with perpetual subscription to StarDate magazine. And they also had a doggie ring bearer!

Their wedding favors were  Thundermuck Coffee. Astoria is a beautiful place at the Oregon coast and we were lucky enough to take our clients to an Astoria beach, despite the rain!
The hair and make up is by Azure salon and catering was by Bridgewater Bistro.
