Mike and Christy’s Wedding

One of my very dear friends got married in September and asked me to design her wedding. Mike and Christy Cheever were married on the water at her parents’ house in Olympia. The morning of the wedding, we drove south in torrential rain, fingers crossed for some sun for the outdoor ceremony. By two o’clock the rain has stopped, the skies had cleared and the sun peeked through to provide a dramatic backdrop to a beautiful ceremony. Here are a smattering of pictures from the day…

Spring Recital Lunch March 08

This is an annual event to celebrate our endowment donors. The luncheon includes a private performance by Seattle Symphony musicians and is attended by 100+ people each year. Here are some pictures from this year’s lunch. As always, the decor budget was tiny so I asked friends to bring in lilacs from their gardens that day and arranged them that morning. The centerpiece flowers all came from Pike Place Market and included different varieties of tulips in purple, pink and green and fresh parsley (which also smelled fantastic!)

A friend in New Zealand just sent these pictures from their recent wedding reception held in a winery. I wanted to share them here to show that you don’t need a lot of money to put together a stunning event. I can’t wait to try a “light curtain” at one of my events…

in need of paparazzi…


I’m in the middle of planning our opening night gala at work and I’m in need of paparazzi. That’s right, fake photogs to heckle our guests as they arrive on the red carpet. Nothing speaks glamorous event like a guy in a tatty leather jacket yelling your name across the room. So where do you find such a thing? Well given our complete lack of funds, I think I am probably going to find some young, willing actors to play the part but turns out there are talent agencies that will rent out fake paparazzi by the hour. Makes you wonder about all those US Weekly magazine events doesn’t it?
