Somewhere Over The Rainbow

Bianca and Izhak are one of the many couples who incorporate traditions in their wedding. We like how grounded and focused they are on the commitment they are about to make to each other and to God. The day was absolutely amazing! Whether you’re planning a Jewish or an interfaith ceremony, today’s featured event is worth taking a peek. Let’s take it from the bride as she shares with us some special details of her big day!

Winter Wonder Love

A year ago, Sean and Tracy tied the knot. Their wedding was truly a day they got to celebrate their love and share it with family and friends. Take a peek below as we bring to you their winter wonder love! We hope you like this as a post-anniversary gift, Sean and Tracy! Wishing you more great years together!

Perfectly Ours

Our featured couple today, Alex and Pablo, got married at a beautiful Greek Orthodox church and their reception was at the historic Crystal Ballroom in Downtown Houston. The bride’s fur vest was one of the winter details. She looked chic and comfy on it. What more – toasts, food, drinks, and nonstop dancing! It was everything they could have wanted. As the bride shares, “It was perfectly ours.” While Jessi Marri Photography brings us this beautiful wintery wedding, let’s see more special details below!

Holiday Cheer and Vows

Josh and I (Sarah) knew that we wanted to have a elegant, classic wedding in downtown Portland, OR and we found a church building that perfectly fit the occasion. Located in the heart of downtown, Portland First Baptist Church is a historic, grand castle of a church, with beautiful stained glass windows, and architecture that takes you back to the middle ages. Paired with our classic colors: Satin ivory wedding dress, deep plum floor length bridesmaids dresses, and the classic black, white and red on the tux, our January wedding embodied the holiday spirit very well. The day was an absolute dream, and it couldn’t have been better. We invested in one of the best photographers in Oregon, and Joshua Rainy Photography certainly delivered photos beyond our expectations! Please take a look and enjoy.
