Jewerly

Charms, Chains & Crystal

Weddings are equal parts Fantasy and Reality, with the Bride and the Dress on center stage.

The Fantasy - Finding just the right accessories to complement your ensemble, your skin tone and your personality.

The Reality - Your budget...

Turning your fantasy into reality is my specialty. My bridal jewelry adorns those critical areas between neckline and chin, between wrist and upper arm, plus the earlobes so often exposed by that dramatic updo. I can satisfy your individual preferences with custom or semi-custom designs at ready-to-wear prices.

For more information, please email Diane Lacroix at cccjewelry@comcast.net

Photographer

Mode Wedding Photography

A little bit about us -

Our philosophy:   You're getting married - it's supposed to be fun! :)

Our approach:    We (Erin + Bill) are a two person photography team.  We start early on your wedding day, capturing images while you and your fiance are getting dressed and ready, and all the way through your day. The goal of our relaxed, unhurried approach is to allow you time during your day to breathe and have fun with your closest friends and family, and to enjoy a day that's about creating memories as opposed to a day that's about meeting schedules :)  The resulting collection of images will not only tell the story of your day, but will also celebrate your relationships - between you and your fiance, and between the two of you and the people that mean the most to you.  We're all about capturing your natural smiles and personalities, and images that truly reflect who you are.

From our fun, double-date style engagement sessions to our private gallery screenings, you'll find that we are passionate about providing more than a service and product package - we believe your wedding photography should be an experience - designed to be enjoyable from our first conversation, through your planning process,  to your big day, and right up through the moment you first turn the pages of your luxurious, handmade, leather bound wedding album, to relive the story of your day.

OK... that's enough about us - we'd love the chance to get to know you and your best friend! :) Let's get together and chat - we're excited to hear more about the plans you've made so far!

                    Desserts

The Cakewalk Shop

My fascination with cake decorating began over 25 years ago while hunting for a cake in Australia with my soon to be (Australian) husband. I was amazed by the artistry of the wedding cakes and the flowers made of sugar that looked so real. This started a desire that someday I would be able to create one myself. I have combined this passion with my belief that a cake should taste as good as it looks. Thus the Cakewalk Shop was born!

My kitchen is located at Swan Trail Farms, a wedding and reception venue situated alongside the Snohomish River in Snohomish County. I do not mass produce cakes. I see myself more as a boutique baker working with my customers to produce a cake uniquely suited to their tastes and occasion.

I service and deliver within Snohomish, King, Skagit, Whatcom, and Island counties.

Allison of Scarlet Blooms

I received my bachelor of fine arts in printmaking from the University of Washington.  Through my love of art and gardening I found a passion for floral design.  My experience with various artistic media has helped shape my unique design style.

My floral career started nine years ago working at a flower shop in Portland Oregon. Shortly there after, I had the opportunity to be the creative force behind a new flower shop in Vancouver Washington, where I started designing for large scale weddings and events.  Life led me to Seattle where I found work at the Floral Design Institute assisting and teaching. In 2006 I started as the lead designer at The Ruins.  While there I have refined my design skills with events ranging from intimate dinner parties to weddings featured in Seattle Metropolitan Bride and Groom magazine.

Seattle Sundries

 

Seattle Sundries soaps are handcrafted in small batches in our facilities in the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle.  Using the traditional cold-process method, the soaps are made with natural olive, RSPO certified palm and coconut oils and scented with pure essential oils. There are no chemicals like those used in many mass-produced commercial soaps and “beauty bars”, so our soap will not dry your skin or harm the earth.

Our look uses a mixture of vintage and original artwork and designs, all with a timeless “flair”. We enjoy making products that not only make you clean, but that spark imagination, conversation and put a smile on your face while they do it.

We also specialize in custom and semi-custom orders for events and celebrations.  Guests love receiving a gift that is thoughtful, creative, high-quality and that they will actually enjoy using...reminding them often of your special event.
