Love is in the Air

You're in love and now it is time to plan the perfect wedding. However the thought of spending a small fortune to get married is not your idea of perfection and you refuse to follow that path. Beautiful, but less costly weddings can be planned by incorporating nature into the theme in any season. Winter provides an opportunity to incorporate snow and sleigh rides into the wedding scene. Spring and summer brings lovely waterfalls tumbling down the mountainsides which can serve as backdrops for some spectacular wedding photos. The serenity of the seashore on a warm summer or fall day adds a special touch when you begin your lifetime of love. In fact, one enterprising couple who didn’t want to spend a fortune decided to get married at the seashore. They found lovely, but affordable wedding attire, decorated their two dogs as “flower girls”, and their marriage has passed the test of time. Another happy couple went to the Leavenworth area for their wedding. After an enjoyable sleigh ride into the mountains, they were married in a snow-covered clearing and have lived happily together since.
