When it
comes to your wedding, you'd like something a
little different? Good.
Planning your commitment ceremony or wedding in Seattle or the Pacific
Northwest? Good choice! Spectacular settings, delicious local food, and
the host of talented photographers, designers, and entertainers in our
community are standing ready.
“Commitment Ceremony” or “Wedding”?
The
terms are interchangeable to us (and we’ll use whichever you prefer).
Bottom line is -- you are ready to celebrate your love and your shared
future, and we are ready to help! Our greatest delight is helping you
weave together your love, faith and beliefs, and your individual stories
to create an unforgettable celebration.
Going on location?
We are Northwest experts! In addition
to ten years of working in Seattle’s beloved urban grit and natural
beauty, we've lead wedding expeditions to the lush pastures below Mt.
Rainier, the North Cascades peaks, Puget Sound islands, Olympia, Kitsap
Peninsula, the Gulf Islands in British Columbia, and more. We have the
skills to make your wedding a success in the most remote location.
Going green?
- We're very proud of our credentials in
sustainability. We offer easy solutions that reduce waste and trim
your wedding's carbon footprint (good news – contrary to what you
may have been lead to believe, this often means reducing your expenses).
On a tight budget?
A planner is the best investment
you can make. Our connections and ‘tricks of the trade’ will
help keep your expenses on track. We are smart, savvy, and experienced
planners, and we don’t represent a consortium of vendors: when
you hire us, we’ll be working to find the best deals for you.

"Whew! Mexico WAS muy delicioso
and Greg and I were heavy on the consumption. We had so much to celebrate!
We toasted your name beach side over many a cocktail. Alex, thank you
for helping to make our wedding so sensational! A favorite moment of
so many people: the pies with the sparklers! We were so glad to work
with you from our first meeting forward. You were always professional
and always fun. You did not flinch or judge when we told you our ideas
but instead helped us to make them happen. And YOUR ideas - the Goodwill
candlesticks, the yards upon yards of blue fabric, the exploding bouquet
for women and men, and so many more - were creative and refreshing. And
your labor: the many hours of work you put in on the day of the wedding
helped the set-up and breakdown run smoothly and kept excited helpers
on task. Everyone loved working with you and I'll never forget the way
everything looked when I walked into Pravda. Better than I had dreamed!"
- Meghan & Greg
"Thank you so much! It was such
a beautiful day, even better than I imagined. When we were planning
the wedding, there were times I felt like I had to just accept that we
wouldn't have the wedding I had dreamed of. But on saturday I was standing
in the field looking back into the building, watching the people dance,
the standup bass, the barefoot band---and I realized this was the wedding
I'd dreamed of. A big barn dance. And so much more. Thank you for making
it all possible."
- Sara & Jacobe
"Its tough for me to find words
to describe how much your contribution to our wedding meant to me. You
were incredible.
Throughout the whole process you really were amazing. We could simply
count on you for everything and that meant so very much."
- Barbara & Mike
"Thanks so much for coordinating
our wedding day! We couldn't be more pleased with how our ceremony
and reception turned out and are still receiving compliments. We
really appreciate all your hard work, humor, and organization. Thank
you!"
- Jen & Alicia
"Well,
we did it!
It was so much more beautiful than I even imagined, and it was such a perfect
day (ok, a little hot, but so what?). Thank you so much for your
help, I couldn't have done it without you, and you made it come together
so wonderfully. Thank you for helping to
make our day so US!"
