We had this amazing wedding featured over at Wedding Chicks earlier this year, check it out here!
This wedding was perfect from start to finish. Our amazingly sunny summer day
(which was like 93 degrees!) helped the park ceremony with the amazing view of Mt. Rainier.
These two are so in love it is apparent through every look they give each other. I am so glad I met these two and was able to help make their wedding dreams a reality.
The eye candy . . .
A locket with a photo of her father, so sweet!

From Jenny:
“After setting a budget, we decided that a Seattle Summertime wedding would be the best way to show off our beautiful city to our guests — out-of-towners and locals alike! Water and city views were a must have for us, so our ceremony site and reception venue were pretty easily settled upon. We wanted the occasion to reflect us, so our neighborhood park, Ella Bailey Park, offering amazing views of Elliot Bay, was the perfect outdoor setting for a memorable ceremony.”

“To honor my dad, who passed away in 2007, the wedding party rolled up in classic Chevy Bel Airs…one of his favorite cars. My sister, the maid of honor, surprised me by attaching his rose gold pocket watch — complete with his photo — to my bouquet. He was there to walk me down the aisle in spirit and I couldn’t have been happier. The ceremony was my favorite part, conducted by the masterful Chaplain Dale. We did a Handfasting Ceremony to literally tie the knot!”
The views of the ceremony , and the Puget Sound!
Jennan Oaks has a GORGEOUS voice! So sweet:)
How sweet is it that the moms were holding hands?!
Way to go Mark!
Their adorable pup Gunther was able to be a part of their day, he’s so cute!
Isn’t she stunning??!
Jenny and her twin sis and MOH!
Sisters! Her other sister (in the middle) actually made Jenny and Mark’s wedding cake!!! It was amazing:)
Ceremony Decor: Each table featured a piece of coral holding the table number along with a seaglass bottle from West Elm.
In liue of a traditional guest book, each place setting had a mini scroll wrapped around a mini pencil for the guests to write sentiments, wishes and advice to the bride and groom. The messages were dropped into the seaglass bottles as if they were leaving a message in a bottle at the beach — a super cute idea for any coastal wedding!
Oh Happy Day!
The guests sure danced the night away to some fun old school R&B and Hip Hop, SO fun!!! DJ Marc Sense from Integral DJ’s even let Jenny step behind his gear and get some fun photos of her mixing beats:)
Update: Mark and Jenny are expecting their first baby now!!! SO fun to watch my couples love and lives grow after their big day:) so happy for you two!!!
