One with Nature

Suzie & Troy ~ October 29, 2011

Olympia, WA @ The Water Street Cafe

Nature and their love for God's little creatures was the inspiration for their magical day. Rod iron black birds, moss covered frogs and squirrels, bird nests, stones, moss, succulents, daisies and branches were all incorporated so that we could be one with nature. Magical lights and candles lit up the branches through the ceremony and reception.
No cake for these "love birds". Instead, it was pie a'la mode. Each pie's crust had little bird feet prints across the top or maple leaves made from the crust. 


 A pair of "Love Birds" nestled on the Bride & Groom's table
 As a special Thank You, each guest took home a pound of coffee beans from the local coffee roasting house Batdorf & Bronson - special treat indeed!
 Handmade labels for the Bride & Groom held by medal acorn holders.
 The perfect place for cards - nestled in a bird cage.
The dessert table - anyone for apple, blackberry, strawberry rhubard or mixed berry pie? The fancy one here is lemon meringue! The dessert table was decorated with 2 black birds and a hand painted sign that read "Four & Twenty black birds baked in a pie".
