Wedding Story - Jayson, Andrea & Nash Fung

Getting propsed too is a magical moment in and of itself, but read how Nash Fung - Seattle Wedding Magician really brought this bride-to-be into the "abracadabra" moment!

I was contacted by Megan from A Kurant Event for this special proposal. Her client Jayson wanted to surprise his girlfriend Andrea.  Our plan was to send Andrea on a girl’s night out, when of course, all their friends are helping us. Her friend Heidi came up with the story that we went to college together and wanted to see my magic as I ‘coincidentally’ ran into them in the restaurant. 

At the end of my performance, I made THE RING appear on Andrea’s arm; that’s when Jayson walked in and proposed. 

Here's the video from that night:

Wedding Story - Rachel, Tye and Pink Blossom Events

We’re excited to introduce you to a new series we’re starting called “Wedding Story”.  Although it will include a lot more than just wedding stories and will chronicle proposals, bachelorette tour happenings and much more from vendors who participated in Weddings in Woodinville.

Rachel and Tye currently reside in North Carolina so it was a pleasure helping coordinate their wedding day as they returned home to celebrate with friends and family!

Photo by Belathee PhotographyI have two distinct favorite memories of this wedding. One was having to actually kick out the groom as he was so excited to help decorate the venue that morning that I had to let him know that photos were soon beginning at Rachel’s parents home in Sammamish and he might miss those. He had spent hours creating the colorful hanging paper flowers and luminaries that would light the path as guests leaved and he wanted to be sure they were all finished. Luckily for him, Pink Blossom Events was able to finish his labor of love!

Photo by Belathee PhotographyThe second memory came as guests were dismissed to the buffet by trivia. Guests were rolling with laughter as Tye and Rachel created the most humorous multiple-choice questions. For example, at one point in their career Rachel was his boss and this question came about from that:

Photo by Belathee PhotographyWhat was the final task Rachel assigned Tye on his last day of work in the ER?

a) Get her coffee

b) Soak a homeless man's feet

c) Clean a large, dirty wound

d) Clean & reorganize the drawers in her work area

Answer, was b!

Mode Photography, photography for best friends in love

Looking for a fun couple to double date with?  The husband and wife team, that is Mode Wedding Photography, are those fun couple.  They even plan the date with their double-date style engagement sessions!

Here’s a little more on them:

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

Your day:     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.

We're excited! :    Winner, WeddingWire Bride's Choice Awards 2012, Published in The Knot (2012)

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!

Luly Yang began creating Couture gowns in her Seattle-based studio in 2000.  Her creative and unique inspirations keep Seattle waiting in anticipation for the debut of each collection, and her cheerful blue windows charm local and international visitors with her elegant displays.  Seattle Bride Magazine has named her as the Best Couture Dress Designer for eight consecutive years, and in 2007 she received the prestigious Nellie Cashman Woman Business Owner of the Year Award.  In 2010, Luly was honored to be one of Puget Sound Business Journal’s Women of Influence, an award recognizing local women for outstanding business and philanthropic contributions to the Puget Sound community.

Born in Taiwan, Luly was introduced to the arts and fine garment creation by her mother and grandmother. Her family includes many artists, engineers, architects and designers, which led to her affinity for precise and detailed design at an early age.  Her formal study includes a degree in Graphic Design from the University of Washington, where she acquired the fundamentals of perfect and timeless design.  This, coupled with 10 years in the architecture field and years of experience as a certified fitness instructor, gives her the foundations to sculpt fabric into sumptuous creations.  "The woman and her body are the soul of the design," she explains, and always credits her clients as her biggest source of inspiration.

Luly's annual Couture runway collection features more then 80 new evening and cocktail looks for the upcoming year. She also introduces a Bridal collection every October, consisting of over 40 gorgeous gowns. The reach of her creativity does not stop with the garments and her clients; her shows have benefited non-profit organizations like Camp Korey and Seattle Children's Hospital, raising awareness and funding for their tireless work to aid children. Luly was also the presenting artist for the 2010 Providence O'Christmas Trees event, benefiting Providence Senior and Community Services.  She is honored to serve her community through art and design. "Good Design can bring about social and environmental change. Being surrounded by beautiful things evokes positive emotions. This in turn encourages us to live better and be better.  My dream is to create a magical place for our guests, ourselves and our community."
