Getting Ready at the Willows Lodge

When I first met Jeanne and Pat to discuss Wedding plans at the Hollywood Schoolhouse (on the border of Woodinville and Redmond), their main emphasis was going to be that all their guests we to have a great time.  They were less on formality, and more on highlighting their family and friends.  I loved their ideas!  The ceremony was going to be a “gathering” of those closest to them – hence no chairs.  I liked what I was hearing. . . . . I found out that they were doing an informal rehearsal dinner at the Red Hook Brewery.  Hmmmm!  They like quality beer as well?!  I thought I better investigate, so I stopped by and took a couple images, snaked on some well prepared Mexican Food, sipped a Red Hook Amber and listened to great stories.  It was surprising to me that they first dated in High School (and this was their first marriage each!)

I had suggested that we start at Willows Lodge as it is a beautiful place to start images, and after the wedding it is very easy to get to (1/4 mile)!  I love the Northwest wood lobby, and the rooms are very intimate – it is just a great place to melt into before and after a wedding

Pat’s best friend did the vows, and true to their words – their family and friends formed a simple circle around them for the ceremony.  The whole event was a great representation of what they were about! See more images at: http://clarsen.zenfolio.com/jeanne-pat
