Acknowledgments
There are many friends and family members who have contributed to make our wedding a success. First and foremost, we would like to thank our parents who have supported us through the whole wedding process. Betty (Charlotte's mom) was her partner in crime planning the whole wedding and making all of the dresses. Thank you so much!!
Secondly, we would like to thank the University of Washington Tacoma for the use of their space. UWT has been James’ home for over 10 years and Charlotte’s for 5 years.
A big thank you to Jeff Caven of Caven Photo Studio (Resort Hotel Photographer and Caven Photo) for all of the amazing pictures he took! These include the engagement, rehearsal dinner and day of wedding pictures. In addition to being an amazing photographer, Jeff is a never ending ball of energy...more often than not he'll stand up and gesture vividly as he gets more and more excited about things. Our family has always enjoyed working with him and will continue to in the future. Jeff has been producing fantastic photography for over 25 years.
Next, we would like to thank Dana Bellefeuille of Dana’s Flowers. She has been a pleasure to work with and has fantastic ideas. Her talents do not stop at flowers though, she also made the cake and cupcakes that were served at the wedding. Please consider using her services for your special events.
We would also like to thank George Hollis Jr. of Gotta Dance Productions for all of his helpful suggestions and the atmosphere that he brought to the reception. Please check out his DJ and MC services.
I would like to thank Fran Morton for her hard work in hand making the mother of the bride and all of the bridesmaids jewelry. The bride's family has known the Morton's since moving to Federal Way and appreciate her special part in the wedding.
We would like to thank Judith Cartier Oliver of Looney Maiden Jewelry for the beautiful hair pins that Charlotte is wearing. She was more then a pleasure to work with and her original handcrafted designs added the perfect touch. Please visit her site at www.looneymaiden.com to see more!
Also, we would like to thank Pat and Kathy Grimes at Great Northwest Popcorn for the chocolate rocks that are used on the cupcakes, cake and in the wedding favors. They add the perfect touch to the overall theme of the wedding. Although, popcorn is their specialty, there are lots of other yummy treats which can be viewed at www.greatnorthwestpopcorn.com.
Lastly, we would like to thank Absent Minded for performing at our reception. Their live and swinging music will add the right amount of fun to the party.
