Wedding bells

One of my coworkers got married tonight and the wedding was beautiful. They were married at Willamette Valley Vineyards and the sun was shining and there was a slight breeze and everything was gorgeous. Everything was simple but elegant and I loved her choice of flowers. This is what was hanging on the backs of the chairs:

Amanda and Matthew

Man and wife

Mr. and Mrs. Goetz!

Her dress had intricate embroidery in pastel colors on the front and around the bottom. I've never seen a dress like it and it was so beautiful.

During the toasts

The first dance

They took sunset pictures in the vineyard and I snapped this one from the balcony above. On nights like this I wish I had a higher quality camera. =)

The dancing cracked me up. Amanda's two nephews were total hams and kept me laughing. The DJ kept the upbeat music going and Amanda and her girlfriends had a great time on the floor.

Her garter was a blue dog collar (with a dog tage engraved with their names and date of marriage) which is SO them and made for a lot of laughs.

One last picture I snapped in the vineyard

Of course it gets me thinking about my own wedding! I know it's years away but all the same, the more weddings I go to the more tidbits I pick up and the more I think about details I love and don't love so much. Maybe someday I'll post more about those details but right now it's past my bedtime. =)
