i really love flowers

i really love flowers.  they are sweet and friendly and have the power to put me in a good mood. 

here's some i spotted while wandering around the gardens at a recent wedding.

oregon summer wedding at the cutest church EVER!

Here's some of my favorites from Melissa and Mark's wedding.

This hanger was a cute detail.

This church has been important to Mark's family for generations. 

His great grandparents are buried in the surrounding cemetery.

The reception was held a short drive away at the Grand Lodge in Forest Grove, Oregon.

You can't go wrong with a few props to keep the kiddos busy. :)

I could do a whole post of just mustachio shots but this one takes the cake.  She was just sitting at an empty table goofing around by herself.  I love how unselfconscious kids are. 

This sweet couple stole my heart! Both are pastors and obviously full of life.

Not every wedding has their own AC/DC cover band to end the night with!  

Wow, these guys kicked the party right up!   

Now, that's a happy married couple enjoying their wedding!

Congrats Melissa and Mark!
