Today’s Real Wedding<\/a> is as sweet as can be. It was a cozy and charming summertime celebration, photographed by Cheri Pearl Photography<\/a> and filled to the brim with personal touches. Suzanne and Brent wanted a small wedding, so they chose to include only their closest friends and family for their sunny garden ceremony at Parson’s Gardens and their waterfront reception at the classic Seattle restaurant, Palisade<\/a>.
\n $\"\"$ <\/p>\n

To make it their own, Suzanne and Brent were super creative in involving their loved ones and incorporated some of their favorite things. Their officiant was a good friend, each guest at the small ceremony signed their marriage certificate, the best man supplied their get-away car (a brown 1965 Triumph convertible- cool!), the invitations were a DIY project, and instead of a traditional wedding cake, they chose their favorite dessert, a coconut cream pie from the Dahlia Bakery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Not wanting a traditional wedding, they also opted for alternative wedding fashion. Brent bought a rich chocolate brown suit from Nordstrom<\/a>, and paired it with a brown, bronze and periwinkle striped tie. Suzanne found a stunning bronze silk dress with delicate periwinkle lace trim and inserts at Mario’s<\/a>. Their style fit perfectly with their overall color palette, and they couldn’t have looked more glowing and in love! Get the full scoop on all of the professionals they worked with in our Real Weddings<\/a> section.
