Chuck & Coogan's SODO Park Party!!

Aaaah, Coogan & Chuck's wedding! One of my favorite, most gorgeous weddings of all time! We used ivory, blush, silver with soft greens - SO beautiful!! These lovely images were shot by the fabulous Chantal Andrea.
 
Let's get started with the details! Her bouquet designed by the insanely talented florist Kelly Sullivan of Botanique Flowers and it was beyond!! She wore a Monique Lhuillier gown & Stewart Weitzman shoes, which matched with her daughter Charlie's, so adorable!!
 Meet the lovely couple! Chuck & Coogan live and work in Atlanta, GA, but Coogan grew up in the PNW and wanted to bring her East Coast guests to Washington and showcase the lovely Seattle Summer! They welcomed an adorable daughter Charlotte, better known as Charlie, early in their engagement. She tried not be a thunder stealer to her gorgeous mother, the bride, but when her father walked her down the aisle it was hard not to melt just a little.
 
For the ceremony Kelly Sullivan did a full floral arch that was breathtaking! We marked the entrance of the ceremony with a library desk from Vintage Ambiance that Kelly filled with roses, clematis and greenery tucked into the cubbies and desk top.
 
 
For the tables we chose a light silver shantung linen, silver vessels and silver beaded glass chargers. We added hints of blush and green throughout the table arrangements.
 
Ahh, the dessert table! How gorgeous and delicious does this look!? Kara from the Sweet Side knocked it out of the park! After the cake was served guests grabbed macarons, mini cupcakes, marshmallows, dipped pretzels and meringues - so good! And yes, those ribbons are made of frosting!
The uber amazing Kerri Effendi created the invitation suite and day of paper. We modified a design from her May Frayn line and had her create a monogram for Chuck & Coogan that that they used for the invites, cocktail napkins, and thank you cards. 
Ok, sorry, I can't get over the library desk - it was my favorite piece of the day! It was just so soft and romantic - I loved it!!
We had two soft seated areas from Vintage Ambiance and this desk was a corner piece that was to die for! Kelly's team did an amazing job on it!
Thank you Chuck & Coogan! It was so wonderful to work with you! And a huge shout out to Chuck's mom Melody Perrin who was the go to gal, mover, shaker and party maker for their wedding! You are the best Melody!
