::Bridal Bash :: 2013 ::

Laurel Creek Manor's 2013 Bridal Bash was a Smash Hit!

 

Each year after the Seattle Wedding Show Laurel Creek Manor hosts their very favorite open house- the Bridal Bash!  We invite potential brides and our LCM brides to come enjoy an afternoon of food, music, giveaways, a selection of fantastic vendors to shop, and always a little extra surprise here and there!  We sip champagne, give tours of the venue, and have a great time!

 

 

Here are some photos from this year's Bridal Bash... We are looking forward to the next one!  (we are considering doing our first ever "Spring Bash" in May or June... So stay tuned!)  Featured Photographer Christy Pelland and her lovely assistant Moch from Jon + Moch Photography were kind enough to send us these fun images for the event... Thank you!

 

 

 

 

 

Featuring our famous wine barrel bistro tables was a must for this year's Bash!  They look fantastic inside or out!  We have two beautiful bar's available for rent, and 5 gorgeous bistro's!

 

 

As I said earlier, we had a selection of fantstic vendors on display at the Bridal Bash this year!  Thank you for the cake samples Celebrity Cake Studio... you always wow us with your new designs and tasty flavors!  Also featured in our Living Room was the beautiful sounds from the Solo Harp of Susan Haas!

 

Tasty treats from Act 3 Catering were everywhere.. and boy did our guests get a fabulous lunch!

 

Some great tunes from Generation X Productions and a gourmet latte from Black Tie Espresso kept our guests happy!  These two vendors are fantastic and any wedding would be lucky to have them!

 

 Blitz & Co. Florist tucked their gorgeous floral creations everywhere for the Bash!  The Fireplace, Laurel Creek display below, on our bistro's and wine barrels, and they even gave each bride a pretty bloom to take home with them!  Thank you Blitz!

This year Laurel Creek Manor had their first Real Wedding feature in a magazine!  Aaron and Kirsten were lucky enough to have Kirsten's family business as a gorgeous place to get married, and boy did they have a great time!  The wedding was featured in the Seattle Met Bride and Groom Magazine... find it on stands now!

We encourage all of our couples to submit their gorgeous weddings to the local magazines, what a great memory to have after the wedding!

 

This year we featured one of our favorite Invitation companies for the first time ever!  Tere from Ink Fancy is fantastic... and uses fabulous vintage letterpress to create gorgeous invitations for your wedding!

 

 

Now if you thought we covered it all with the music, food, flowers, and champagne... you were wrong!  This year we were able to enjoy carriage rides from the fabulous Country Wagon!  This is a perfect fit for a Laurel Creek wedding that wants a little fairy tale romance!

 

We finished the event off with our famous bouquet toss.. where all of the brides who catch a bouquet get a great bonus prize from Laurel Creek Manor and Blitz & Co. Florist! What a fun time!

THANK YOU to everyone who was a part of the Laurel Creek Manor Bridal Bash 2013!  We had a great time and hope to see you all back for your wedding at Laurel Creek Manor!


::LCM Reception Tent & Light Canopy ::

A big thank you goes out today to Kali of Corliss Photography, She sent over some gorgeous photos for us to use on our new reception tent poster! 

 

Our winter tours do not get the pleasure of seeing our Reception Tent and Light Canopy in person until it goes up in May... so we though, lets give them some eye candy while they wait!

 

We put these pieces together to create beautiful board of images, showing one of the top reasons Laurel Creek Manor is THE place to get married... we INCLUDE this gorgeous tent and light canopy with your rental (May-October)!!!

:: Jen & Darren :: January 5th 2013

Welcome Back to the BLOG!

We are going to start the new year by featuring one of our favorite winter weddings... Jennifer and Darren married at Laurel Creek Manor on a sunny winter day in January!

 

These two had an intimate 70 person wedding using all of the gorgeous spaces inside the manor house.  Jen had inspiration from the gorgeous northwest all over in her decor- beautiful glowing lanterns, burlap and pine-cones, and gorgeous hand made bouquets with cottonwood and dried flowers!

 

 

  

 

The weather was so nice, the lights on the house were warm and twinkling, and the photos they were able to take outside were gorgeous!

 

 

Jennifer wanted a cozy, intimate ceremony in our Living Room... and used our lighting and fireplace as a pretty backdrop!  They then moved to the great room for cocktails and dinner, finishing off the night with some cake and dancing in front of the Great Room fireplace! Cheers!

 

  

 

Thank you to their wonderful photographers Rochelle Wilhelms & Michael Elm for sharing these photos with us! Follow the link below to check out more gorgeous photos from this wedding.. make sure to click the "DANCE" section of the post to see photos of their pretty reception in the Great Room!
