a wedding // lindsay + alec

i really love what lindsey and alec did with their wedding. they fashioned their event after 17th century flemish still life paintings, creating a moody and inviting space , with the focus being on a giant dinner table overflowing with food and flowers. yet it still had a touch of the "portland-hipster" vibe, which makes for quite a nice combination if you ask me. these two have great style and a love for each other that is so incredibly beautiful. see more of this event, along with a complete vendor list, over at 100 layer cake.

a love celebration // kelty + justin

i don't know what to say about this one here, other than it was the best non-wedding wedding i have ever been to; in honor of two of the sweetest people i have ever met. kelty and justin are truly beautiful people and they threw one hell of an event to celebrate the love they share for each other and the family and friends that are so dear to them. i am beyond honored to call them a friend. see more of this little love celebration, complete with vendor credits, over on 100 layer cake today.
