Amber & Andrew were recently married at the Grand Holiday Ballroom in Olympia, WA on a cold rainy December day. Fortunately for everyone, indoors it was warm, cozy and perfect for a wedding.
As Amber and the bridesmaids prepared for the ceremony, the groom and his men were chilling downstairs.
Who wouldn’t want to photograph Amber? Such a beautiful bride!
Something old was a handkerchief from her grand mother (if memory serves me correctly) it was from WWI.
Something new the pearl necklace, bracelet and dress.
Something borrowed were the pearl earrings.
Something blue, is the stone on her pinky finger ring.
And the frog in the bouquet was in memory of her sister who loved frogs.
There are plenty of locations for photographs inside at the Grand Holiday Ballroom – so , if weather is bad, you still can get great photos to remember the day!
The reveal
The high beam ceilings, the warm colors of the venue make for an inviting venue.
Downstairs is a reception area where Amber & Andrew had their cocktail hour, toast, cake and dancing. The ceremony and dinner were upstairs in the main ballroom.
We had a wonderful time photographing Amber & Andrew’s wedding. After the ceremony and reception they were heading to a warm tropical honeymoon.
