Colin and Andrea found an imperfect spot for their wedding ceremony near their wedding reception venue at Golden Gardens Park.
And in this imperfect spot, the perfect vows were exchanged by a couple meant to be together.
I love imperfect weddings. And it's no secret that most wedding ceremonies are all slightly imperfect. That's what makes them perfect. The best wedding ceremonies memories are in the unexpected moments - the occasional glitches - the tears out of nowhere - the moments of humor and glee that take your breath away.
Colin and Andrea ~ thank you for giving us the lovely opportunity to "parade" with you to your ceremony site and to share in your imperfectly perfect moment.
I was deeply touched to share in Chris and Malia's wedding ceremony. It was a marvelous 7:30 p.m. ceremony on board the historic Skanskonia Ferry Boat.
Simply put, Chris and Malia set the tone for their wedding day with generosity and graciousness. Chris was amazing in all ways as he took charge of so many day-of planning details for his Sweetheart. Malia's beautiful smile and generous nature welcomed guests and made each person around her feel that they were indeed one of the most important pieces of this wedding day.
Chris and Malia - thank you for giving me the lovely opportunity to know you and share in a part of your beautiful wedding day.
I've decided to change up the Wednesday blog postings from now on, starting with the new name, Wednesday Highlights. Instead of featuring real weddings on Wednesdays, we're going to feature completed orders from way back when to our most recent orders. However, at the start of each month we will feature real weddings.
Melinda and Jason's aisle runner from July of 2008 is one of my all time favorites. Not only did I fall in love with the design when Melinda brought it to us, but it was also one of our first non-slip aisle runners. Even over a year later, I'm so happy with this design and would love to recreate it for a new couple. Be sure to visit Customized Wedding Creations to order this or any design today!
Highlights from Wild and Wacky Wednesday at Langley Speedway on August 5, 2009.
Unfortunately, there was a big crash during the time trials due to a stuck throttle, the driver appeared to have no injuries, but the car looked pretty used up. Then, just as the clean up crew was almost done, the rain came. Leading to the cancelation of the rest of the events.

A funny thing may happen to a bride or groom on the way down the aisle ~ or when a wedding ceremony begins...wedding ceremony anesthesia!
Really!
A wedding ceremony is a big emotional event. Knowing this, I often write for "moments" as moments and the "feeling" of a ceremony are what a couple and their family and friends will remember in the coming years, not the actual words.
As you plan your ceremony, here are three quick tips to "remember more..."
1) Slow Things Down. Elegant humor in the first minute or two of a ceremony relaxes everyone and "grounds a couple" to remember more of their ceremony... Memo and Kristin (in the photo above) are a great example of this. They mixed the sacred with elegant humor and created great ceremony memories for their wedding day at Shilshole Bay Beach Club.
2) Don't Over Practice. Rehearsals are terrific and at the same time, spontaneous moments create lifetime memories that "planning tactics" can't replicate.
3) "Focus On Each Other" ~ I encourage a couple to "focus on the other" during the ceremony - and by doing so, the rest of the world hopefully fades away a bit.

Title: 1 of 3: The Purpose, Planning and Packing your Bug-Out-Bag 1/3
The Purpose, Planning and Packing your Bug-Out-Bag 1/3
This video series goes over information concerning the 'Bug-Out-Bag'. For those just starting out this will give you a good idea on the basics of building your own BOB.
the Bug-Out-Bag
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bug-out_bag
Ten Essentials
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Essentials
BOBs are not new but are gaining popularity as ppl understand that they need to be responsible for the safety of themselves and their family members. Lots of info on BOBs can be found on the internet but you need to build your BOB for you, your location and the possible emergencies you might face. Many ppl cannot spend lots of money on their BOB, so the information here is geared toward those who dont have a lot of money &/or those who are just beginning to gather information on what a BOB is and how it is to be used in conjunction with various survival skills. You can have the most expensive and high tech BOB but if you cannot use the items to survival (IOW you have little or no skills) then your BOB is worthless.
A BOB is not just a bag of stuff, but tool to help you survive in an emergency. The greatest tool you have is you and your abilities to evaluate your situation, build a BOB and practice using it so your confident in your abilities and equipment. Remember this is just an introductory look and not an all inclusive video series.
I hope this helps.

Title: SBA Business Plan Webinar - Part 2 of 8
http://www.bplans.com - Business planning expert Tim Berry explains how to develop your business by developing a business plan in this 8-part web seminar was cosponsored by the Small Business Administration and Palo Alto Software.
Kacy and Cindy were married high in the sky on April 4th and Sean Werner of www.weddingphotog.com captured this wonderful shot. During the ceremony, Kacy showed me his very unique ring.
You see, Kacy and Cindy love the Grand Tetons mountains and this place has a lot of significance for them as a couple. So, Kacy had his ring custom made with the image of the Grand Tetons surrounding his wedding band. Very fun. Very beautiful.

Title: Grand Canyon Hike done again 50 years later
In 1960 25 Boy Scouts from Fort Wayne, Indiana hiked from the South Rim to the North Rim in July. Six of those original Boy Scouts repeated a hike to bottom and back. This time they were accompanied by their mates and one daughter, which was much nicer than the first time. Also this time we had an embedded reporter covering the story. The folks on this hike were: Doug Welch and Vicki Welch; Jim Pinter and Teresa Pinter; Jim Stone and Cindy Ratermann; Michael Levy and Kathleen Kirk; Phil Bloom and Jessie Bloom; Richard Stamats and Kacey Stamats; Tom Roberson and Linda Lee.

Title: Megadeth Promises Lyrics
Lyrics here:
Two hearts that shouldn't Talk to each other become close In a town much like a prison cell
People speak our names On the street in hushed tones Oh the stories they'd tell If anyone would listen
You come from a town where People don't bother saying hello Unless somebody's born or dies
And I come from a place where they Drag your hopes through the mud Because their own dreams are all dying
And when we walk down the street The wind sings our name in rebel songs The sounds of the night should make us anxious But it's much too late when the fear is gone
I will meet you in the Next Life, I promise you Where we can be together, I promise you I will wait till then in Heaven, I promise you I promise, I promise
There's so many fighting To get past the Pearly Gates But nobody ever wants to die or get saved
Their intentions aren't that good And I can smell the asphalt That's their personal road to hell being paved
And when we walk down the street The wind sings our names in rebel songs And it's much too late when the fear is gone
I will meet you in the Next Life, I promise you Where we can be together, I promise you I will wait till then in Heaven, I promise you I promise, I promise
Solo - Pitrelli / Solo - Mustaine
I will meet you in the Next Life, I promise you Where we can be together, I promise you I will wait till then in Heaven, I promise you I promise, I promise
Title: The Dirty Heads - Lay Me Down lyrics
Lyrics to Lay Me Down:
Ho ohh woah ho ho no ohhh
hoo ooh oh
oh oooh ooh
well this is how it starts two lovers in the dark
on the run from the one that they call Sheriff Sparks
six guns by the side and bullets 'round their waist
two shots to the sky signal sign for the chase.
the safe is nearly empty and they were nearly free
but were seen by the good eye of the mean Billy Queen
and he screamed at the top of his lungs "they're on the run"
It's the two outsiders grab your horses and your guns
i said i wish that we could stay here
but i fear our time is come
we could ride out in the darkness
chasing the rising sun
we gotta pack our bags this instant
we're headin' southbound til the next town
and if we arrive there so safely
baby you could lay me down
lay me downnn
lay me dowahownnn
lay me downnnnnn
well its the story of the two, always on the move
they got nothing left to lose 'cept their guns and their wounds
now they're crossing borders sheriff's posse on their tail
they'd rather die together than be stuck up in a cell
they drank up all the whiskey and they partied every night
like it could be the last, the bounty said to 'shoot on sight'
they're chasing in the summer, knew it came with a price
They wouldn't stop running til they found the paradise
but the sheriff finally found them with his eyes seeing red
so the lovers had to shoot him down and fill him full of lead
they were finally free to find a place to lay their head
and when he finally did he looked at her and he said
i said i think that we can stay here
cuz i feel our time has come
and we can walk down to the ocean
and sit with the rising sun
so unpack your bags this instant
no more running from town to town
and now that we've arrived so safely
baby you can lay me down
lay me downnn
lay me dowahownnn
lay me downnnnnnnnnn
well you're my green eyed girl and i been running around with you
its the afternoon and we got nothing left to do
so wipe the dirt off, take your shirt off
and we should go hit the cantina; we got work off
i said its hot outside let me go swimming in your eyes
we been running for awhile why don't you lay down i'll make you smile
i could never ask for nothing better than this
it's just tequila and the beach, it's quite salty when we kiss
i said i think that we can stay here
cuz i feel our time has come
and we can walk down to the ocean
and sit with the rising sun
so unpack your bags this instant
no more running from town to town
and now that we've arrived so safely
baby you can lay me down
lay me downnn
lay me downhownnn noooo ohhh
lay me downnnnnnnnnn
lay me down
