Can you believe it’s already been almost two months since Panache? I’ve been meaning to post these wonderful pictures from Lisa at Make A Scene Rentals, so I hope no one will mind that they’re a little late. They’re still great photos of the beautiful sunny day we had and that view. Enjoy!

I’m often amazed at the chain reactions that lead me places. I was searching for Seattle wedding websites and found Junebug Weddings, which had a link to Weddingbee on their blogroll, which had brides blogging about something called Etsy.

For those who are new to it, a wiki (originally wikiwiki, but you know…we like to save time) is….in a nutshell…a free, online encyclopedia that readers can edit. Some are broad encompassing all topics and some are [...]

I read an Seattle PI article back in February about Seattle’s prominent chocolates and the idea of a chocolate tour….a tour around Seattle’s finest chocolate stops. Doesn’t that sound delicious? Here’s what Tours of Seattle has to say…
