I love how creative our couples are! I wanted to share this super cute video Jodi + Kurt sent to all their wedding guests entitled “a slice of invite”…just a little taste of how fun and gorgeous their wedding is going to be! We can’t wait to document their wedding day in Virginia next month…and after seeing this, I’m really craving some apple pie!

Just a few more from Melanie + Justin’s wedding in Lake Chelan, Washington! The day after their wedding, we met back up with them and had so much fun exploring a nearby apple orchard that overlooked the lake. We ended at their family’s lake house, where they spent so many summers together…a perfect ending to a wonderful wedding weekend!

The winner of the Ruche $100 gift card giveaway using randomizer.org is Brenda Janairo who commented “I discovered your amazing work because of Ruche! I love all your images!” Congratulations Brenda! Thank you all so much for all your comments and thank you Ruche for offering this awesome giveaway to my blog readers! We’ll have to hold more of these blog giveaways in the near future 

We flew out to Washington to document Melanie + Justin’s amazing destination wedding in Lake Chelan at Amy’s Manor. Lake Chelan is a very special place for these two since Justin’s family has been vacationing there ever since he was a boy, and Melanie and Justin have come to Chelan every year, out of the seven years they’ve been together, to spend time with their family and friends. Naturally, it was the perfect location for their wedding! The area is just gorgeous…full of scenic views of pristine lake and landscape dotted by vineyards and apple and cherry orchards. Their wedding day was such a lovely celebration of their love, complete with lots of wine, dancing, and yummy mini pies! Melanie wore a gorgeous Vera Wang dress and shoes by Stuart Weitzman. Sure to Rise Bakery made all the delicious mini pies of apple, rhubarb, blueberry, and peach! Fleur De Lis provided the floral design and Colleen Simpson coordinated the day’s events. Melanie is Mrs Frog on Wedding Bee and you can read all about her wedding planning adventures on her blog!

Hooray! Julie and Patrick’s lovely Joshua Tree wedding is published in the Fall/Winter issue of Brides Southern California magazine!
