i want you to wear me
comfortably,
as you would a dress,
or the silver necklace that you wear
around your neck.
comfortably, so that i am always
next to you:
but most important-
something you decide
each morning to select.

vennessa and john's fun-loving wedding was at seattle yacht club and was coordinated by the fabulous team at true color events. her good friend made her perfectly simple, pretty little eyelet dress. we had quite the little photo crew, since we shot with jon's talented brother jeremy who makes amazing videos. check out his site endless love productions. can't wait to see the video and see that dress in action again. this wedding had a playful vibe with polynesian inspired details and entertainment. these two are such a fun pair, you can't help but to smile and giggle the entire time you are around them. their wedding matched them perfectly and was one big ball of beauty, jokes, laughter and good cheer!
(and yes if you were wondering, that is a *flower muff that vennessa is holding instead of a traditional bridal bouquet. how cool is that?)
*flower design (including the lovely muff) by lea at florarama modern design
Please let me know if you know where she got her dress. These images are amazing and so is her dress! :)

What a small world Heather...
My next door neighbor and good friend made her wedding dress. Your eye for capturing it are awesome. Great work, as always. Hope you are well. - Amber

I was listening to Jon's music while I was reading/ admiring this post and it seems to be the perfect background music to read any and all the posts that you have. Thank you for sharing this Polynesian-inspired day. There just isn't enough Poly-love for me in a day.

That is probably the best dress shot I have seen and I'm no stranger to shooting wedding dresses myself. Awesome stuff.
