I love hearing how couples meet and each story is truly unique. Cally and Eli are no exception. With the help of technology Cally & Eli met through the magical world of the Internet via Match.com! They had their first date in March of 2010, at a coffeehouse in Green Lake called Zokas. Eli swears it was love at first sight for him, but Cally wasn’t so convinced. It took a pep talk from her sister, Kristina, and a second date to really let her see she had met someone special.
During their third date, Eli boldly asked Cally to move to California with him while he worked on a special assignment with Boeing. Cally decided to throw caution to the wind and accompany him on his adventure. It was one of the best decisions she has ever made, and the two of them have been head over heels ever since.
Their wedding was a day full of love, family and friends. Every moment throughout the day was magical and a beautiful celebration of the love these two have for each other. We started the day at Campbell’s Resort in Lake Chelan where the wedding party was getting ready. Our next stop was the Lake Chelan Airport because Eli works for Boeing and LOVES airplanes so that was an important element to their wedding photos. Eli’s Weimeriener Nala stopped by for some photos too! Our final stop was Karma Vineyards in Chelan for this beautiful outdoor winter themed wedding. The reception was back at the winery with an outdoor heated tent and personally sculpted ice bar. The bridesmaids and bride wore vintage furs that belongs to a friends grandmother for a special touch and also sported some custom designed ear muffs made by Lucy Loves Ethel.
The day couldn’t have been more perfect and I love the concept of an outdoor winter wedding even with 2 inches of frost covering everything!
A beautiful and unique ring box…and yes that is frost on the airplane!

Anticipation starts to set in. Eli couldn’t stop smiling…the countdown begins…
Eli kept repeating….”You look like a princess”….Cally really did look like a princess on their wedding day!
This beautiful Hoopa was built for Cally and Eli’s wedding by their very good friends. It was amazing and what a special gift!
