Sarah and Dillon - Oregon Coast Wedding: Lakeside & Coos Bay
It's time for another Wedding season on the Oregon Coast! We got off to an early start this year, with two weddings in May to kick off the year. The weather has been crazy dry, windy and beautiful this year - I hope it holds out!
The ceremony was held at the Coos Bay Seventh Day Adventist Church. The color palatte was red and Gold, and I think it fir the surroundings perfectly. The Perfect Occasion took care of every last detail. It was great to have a wedding planner on site to arrange all the details and make sure that the day went smoothly - because I attend SO many weddings, I often fill that gap, but it was great to be able to leave that to a real professional!
I love being a part of the getting ready process. The excitment in the room is palpable. Sarah's mom and friends were so happy and enthusiastic - it was hard not to have a huge smile on your face the whole time!
And I never forget the groom - he's getting married too you know!! <<<< Says the mother of a boy.... :)
The ceremony was perfect and solomn as it should be, but that doesn't mean you can't have some laughs and a big suprise at the end!
Can you say Rose Petal Canons?!! It's hard to tell this small - but right as they were announced as husband and wife - an air canon on either side of the alter went off and showered them with rose petals. It. Was. Awesome.
The weather on the coast can never be predicted 100% of course, so having the tents from Big Tents Rents & Events was a great idea. Sheided from the sun in the afternoon, and the fog layer that rolled in that evening, it was a wonderful setting for the elegant decor underneith.
There was not one, but TWO beautiful cakes from by Sweet Life Patisserie in Eugene! One that went along with the elegant theme for the day, and one that was fun and represented the video games they love to play together.
The food was fantastic - provided by Smokin' Friday BBQ from Roseburg.
Timberwolf kept everyone on the dance floor, and even got all the bridesmaids to step up and take the lead!
The fog held off long enough for us to get some great shots in front of the lake. It was truly a fantastic event from beginning to end. Thank you Sarah and Dillon for inviting me out to capture the day for you.
