Nicole and Frank were married in the San Juan’s, but decided to have a big party with their friends when they came back at Portland Center Stage’s Gerding Theater at the Armory. They decided to have their big party somewhere that was very sentimental to their relationship, Portland Center Stage located in the Portland Armory. They also had one of our favorite band’s, Pressure Point perform during the party. They were totally energetic and fun as usual, complete with a classic saxophone solo that required audience assistance.
Band: Pressure Point Band
Caterer: Devils Food

I was hoping to attend the ball when the phone rang and I was invited to cover this event at the beautiful Tiffany Center! What a coincidence! The decorations at the Tiffany Center Crystal Ballroom was by FireWorks! events. I have done couple weddings there before, but this was my first non-wedding event. As a bonus, Stolen Sweets were playing so I had a chance to practice my swing dancing! In addition, BodyVox dance company did a great performance on the stage!

Vibrant Table was kind enough to invite me to their fun holiday party! Knowing how good a party they create at weddings, I knew it would be tons of fun! Everybody had a great time. Food was fantastic and also there were custom made flipbooks - I got one of me pretending to shoot - very entertaining!
Portland Center Stage is definitely one of the most elegant locations in Portland to have a wedding reception or a corporate party. I love the architecture as well, and the staff is super friendly.

I had the privilige of being part of Jill and Michele’s commitment ceremony in Mexico. It is always a pleasure to work with artistic minded people, and both Jill and Michele and their guests were so much fun to be around. We had fireworks, mariachis, salsa band, and tacos pastor! A really fun evening overall! The couple also had one of the most unique invitation’s ever as well. They were designed by Jill’s sister, who is a graphic designer (Quoin Design). The place cards were also very unique - they used loteria cards for that purpose.
To add to the coolness, guests were able to spot some whales from the overlook on Don Pedro’s Palapa. Sayulita and Puerto Vallarta event planners Andrea and Gabi of Sayulia Dream Weddings did a fantastic job as usual organizing event.
I was also able to get some great scenic shots, given that there was a full moon. The night shot of Playa de Los Muertos with stars is my favorite, but the Sayulita bay is also really pretty.
