Sweet Home Elopement Kirkland
Jacky Grotle
We consider a wedding less than 30 people to be an elopement, up to 100 a small wedding and 250 guests average size for Seattle and 300+ a large scale wedding. We loved planning and designing this elopement bc (before covid). Using wonderful bright colors with the floral and print materials was a must. Yohanna & Frederica were from Argentina & Spain so Latin flavors with the food were a must with sangria, paella & of course gelato. Yohanna had fun adding all the special special touches that were so memorable.
Taken from their trip to Tibet, they incorporated this tradition into their wedding ceremony: Red strings are used in Tibetan Buddhism religious ceremonies. It is believed that tying a red thread to the centerpiece, during a traditional ceremony, while chanting scriptures side by side, will bring people closer. Post the ceremony, the red sacred thread is to be tied on each other’s wrists.
