This Bellingham wedding was like spending New Year’s Eve with friends, which is the perfect kind of wedding if you ask me.
When Katie reached out about their New Year’s Eve wedding plans, it was like talking to an old friend. Her sweet, caring and kind personality shone through in every email, as did her sarcasm and quick wit. I adored her immediately and this was definitely one of those weddings I was looking forward to.
We did Katie and Eric’s engagement session at Deception Pass (one of my favorite places in the state) and adventured through the rain with their dog Bacon. As they’ll be leaving state soon for work reasons, it was a great way to commemorate their last official wintery wet in the Pacific Northwest … and the perfect lead in to their Bellingham wedding.
On their wedding day, we arrived to their home where Katie was getting ready. Her mom had the sweetest surprise for her, and you could feel the joy in the air as she put on her beautiful two-piece dress. She looked like a glamour girl from the 1940s and truly embodied the grace of a lady from the silver screen.
As soon as she and Eric were together the laughs didn’t stop. They shared glances, smiles, and inside jokes. At Giuseppe’s Al Porto, in the party room, they shared laughter with their family and closest friends and then shared their vows and exchanged rings to seal their Bellingham wedding in front of the faux fire place. Afterwards, they shared drinks and an incredible meal with their dearest loved ones, and then enjoyed a delicious cake by Pure Bliss Desserts (it was lemon cake with sweet cream frosting and almond cake with salted caramel frosting – I couldn’t even decide which kind I wanted to try, they both sounded so amazing!!). They then rang in the New Year and finished off their Bellingham wedding at The Black Cat.
We are super excited to say that we get to work with these two again this summer, as they’re having a larger reception in July! See you then, Katie & Eric!
