Two Weddings, One Epic Night

Apparently last weekend was pop-u-lar for weddings, because we were invited to two on Saturday evening.
 
But as luck would have it, they were only about 15 minutes away from each other, starting about an hour and a half apart. Totally do-able.
 
Because obviously we weren't going to miss out on either one of the parties.
 
First up was Adam and Sarah's wedding at Adam's lovely family home in Woodinville. The wedding was in their gorgeous backyard garden under a lovely gazebo. Adam was my very best guy friend in college, so I was so happy we could be there for such an important moment in his life.
 
We had just enough time to throw back some cocktails and watch him put a ring on it before heading out for round two. I didn't get any photos with the happy couple, but these should give you an idea what a gorgeous wedding and reception it was...  
 

 
Back at the hotel, we re-joined our friends for some fireball (hey, this was a celebration and the venue was within walking distance) before heading to the main event...
 
Jessica & Paul getting hitched!
 
The wedding was at an awesome place called Russell's in Bothell. The ceremony and reception were in an amazing wood loft that was almost like being on the inside of a giant wooden ship. The ceremony was gorgeous, and Jess and Paul looked ridiculously in love. And talk about a beautiful bride... that girl took my breath away! But of course I didn't get any photos with her... epic fail.
 
The night was pretty typical... appetizers, cocktails, and dancing... but it was with some of our very best friends which made it that much more fantastic.
 
Let's just say we ate and drank our fair share.






 
Oh and did I mention they had a photo booth?! Whoever came up with this idea deserves a medal. We literally could not get enough. I don't know if this is a sign of narcissism or drunkenness. Probably both. But in any case it was a blast.

 
I honestly can't even explain to you how much I love my friends, or how happy it makes me when they find their fairy tale endings.
 
What an epic weekend.

Was this sign written for me and Stew or what? :-)
 
Needless to say, Sunday was pretty low key for us, and most of it was spent on the couch with the Seahawks and the cast of Downton Abbey.
 
How was your weekend?

  11. A photobooth is the best thing to have at a wedding. I could be in one of those for hours!
