Pro tip for anyone planning an event who may not be working with a planner or designer to guide you - lighting is often overlooked but oh so crucial, indoors and out. Not only for creating ambiance, but also for safety. Uplighting around the rooms that guests will be in around/after sundown is a minimum necessity. Café string lights add a soft starry night effect. Spot lighting, or a hanging light installation, highlight focal points like your cake or sweetheart table. Bonus points if your venue has cool built-in lighting, like @fremont_foundry 's industrial ceiling lights (shown here) and large chandelier. Once the dance floor opens, its time to have a little more fun with effects and changing colors, on movers, to create a fun party atmosphere. Most DJs include uplighting and dance floor lighting, bands do not. For specialty lighting like string lights, chandeliers, installations, and tons more, we encourage you to partner with a lighting company! We love working with @crimson_haze_lighting, @greenlightseattle and @lightsmiths.seattle💡 Photo @noellejohnsun Floral @althauserdesign Venue @fremont_foundry Catering @ravishingradishcatering Band @thenines206 Lighting @crimson_haze_lighting Tables @seattlefarmtables Rentals @cortpartyrental Paper & Signage @chalkboss Linens @latavolalinen Planning @areneeweddings

On my most challenging days, I remind myself that I grew two humans at once. While my pregnancy certainly wasn't easy, and the boys were born prematurely, Kyle and Reid turn 2 years old today and are healthy and happy as can be! We're celebrating today by eating pancakes, cupcakes, playing in the snow in the mountains, cheering on the Seahawks, and grabbing takeout from the same great Italian restaurant we went to for their 1st birthday. Happy 2nd Birthday Kyle & Reid! We couldn't be more lucky to be your parents ❤ 📷 @sasha_reiko_photography
