A wedding in Washington with Sister Unity officiating

A seriously delightful backyard wedding with a Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence wedding officiant

Greg and Lee’s backyard wedding in Vashon Island, Washington was truly a spectacle to behold. There was foliage on top of flowers on top of golden lights. There were crisp suits and winks and soft nudges. There were simply lovely cakes and sliders and golden roasted veggies. And there was their intimate ceremony officiated by Sister Unity of Los Angeles Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, which added a whole sparkle to an already glowing day.

Everything from their signature cocktails to the piano solo during their ceremony added to the warm feel of the day. You’ve got to see this enviable backyard wedding…

Just wait until you see this sweet backyard wedding

Just wait until you see this sweet backyard food truck wedding

The ceremony at this sweet backyard wedding was held under a large oak tree on the property and a tent created their reception space for dinner, dancing, and partying the night away. Think lLawn games, a fire pit, and lots of dancing. But the best part may have been the food truck catering with delish burgers and fries! Just wait until you see the green smoke bomb shots…

A Malagasy-American intimate Whidbey Island backyard wedding

Elsie and Dilphe met in Madagascar while Elsie was serving in the Peace Corps. They now live in Seattle, but Elsie’s family history lies in Whidbey Island where they got married in her parents’ backyard. Dilphe’s siblings were able to travel from Madagascar for the wedding so this day was solely set aside for just pure fun and family.

Let’s take a look at this lush and beautiful Whidbey Island backyard wedding…

A backyard wedding (that makes $5k look like a million bucks!)

A chic backyard wedding (that makes $5k look like a million bucks!)

Lauren and Adrian took a $5,000 budget and made wedding magic in their own backyard. They were most interested in doing fun things with flowers, the sweet first look under an apple tree, and the FOOD. We’re talking really good looking sammies and a spread that makes any table look mild in comparison.

Most of all? We’re head over heels for the Lauren’s simple, chic, and so fabulous black and white dress. You won’t want to miss it (and the whole chic backyard wedding to boot!)…
