Alicia and Jared’s Wedding Day
“Exit light, enter night, take my hand, we’re off to never-never-land! —Metallica”
Relationships are the heart of it all. More than just providing a service, I enjoy the personal relationships that develop with my couples. When Alicia and Jared were married, it was a homecoming of sorts as I had photographed Jessica’s wedding last year. I was welcomed with smiles and open arms. After the wedding, Alicia told me they wanted to adopt me into the family.
Trying to figure out which family I’d belong to would be a challenge. Alicia has 5 siblings and all their names begin with “A”. Jared has 4 siblings who’s names all start with “J”. Where would Randy fit into this scenario? Regardless, what is readily apparent is the close bond both families have for each other. There were kids everywhere being hugged and loved by anyone within arms reach. This wedding was as much about the love of family as it was about the love Alicia and Jared share for each other.
The beautiful, backyard wedding was held at a private residence in Chehalis, Washington. It was chilly once the sun set, but 5 Guys Named Moe cranked up the heat on the dance floor. Drinks were flowing, music was pumping and everyone celebrated the night away, off to Never-Never-Land.
Congratulations to both families! It was wonderful seeing everyone again and a special congrats to Jessica and Cyle who are expecting their first child soon. To Alicia and Jared, I wish a lifetime of happiness surrounded with the love of your beautiful, quirky and fun-loving families. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your wedding day!

It is so nice to have clients we call “friends”. All of your couples are so wonderful and it really touches me when you are welcomed with such open arms.
