fun and colorful chehalis wedding at the barn on jackson

What can I say about Abby and McCall's wedding day? It was magical, brimming with love, and chock full of thoughtful ideas to create a unique guest experience. When Abby and I met initially to discuss her wedding, we ended up laughing most of the time away reminiscing about our time at Body Rock Dance Space together. When things got down to business, I felt more like a family member and less like an employee. I love building relationships, but I was truly humbled to work with such a welcoming group.

After a morning filled with breakfast, laughs, and (of course) mimosas, the bridal party began getting dressed at the beautiful onsite farmhouse that The Barn on Jackson offers up to its guests for rental. Alyssa Rae Portraiture was there every step of the way to capture all the beautiful shots you're seeing here, and Pollen Floral Works arrived onsite to design the reception tables and deliver some seriously stunning bouquets. Working together with Abby on guest details was so fun. She was creative and thoughtful in her vision for her day, and the little touches that she included for her guests just shined.

After the ceremony, guests filed into the basement for a games & greeting hour. Abby and McCall received their guests, and afterwards played a couple of rounds of cornhole with everyone too! When it was time to eat, everyone headed upstairs for a great taco buffet by Cake N' Cater. Guests then indulged in cupcakes by the incomparable Original Kristi's Bakery. When it was time to hit the dance floor, Abby and McCall started things off and Susan (Best Tacoma DJ) carried everyone through into the night with a great playlist.

It was a seamlessly beautiful day celebrating an incredible couple. Thank you for having me as a part of your wedding!
