engagement party at black bottle

This weekend we hosted an engagement party for one of my best friends at Black Bottle in Seattle.  It was a beautiful space with marble bistro tables and metal cafe chairs, we hardly did any decorating or work at all.  It was perfect.  If you're looking for a space to host a party, check it out.  Paul, the events manager, was a dream to work with.

Letters to the bride and groom.

My favorite thing at Black Bottle is their flatbreads!



I think this was a dance off...

My best attempt at getting my Husband to smile.

Ladies if you're getting a prenup, make sure to add smiles in photos to your requirements!

Frank is the same. Smiling is not an option unless I make a fart joke before the flash goes off!

I love the poster for the letters to the bride and groom, and this looks like a great place for a shindig. You also look gorgeous and make up for your husband's lack of smile. :)
