Foss Waterway Seaport | Tacoma, WA | Mollee + Michael

I've said it a million times and I'll continue to say it -- saying "Yes" the day Michael proposed was the first easiest and best decision I've made -- hiring Lisa with Elegant affairs was the second easiest and best decision I made for our wedding!!! I had gone to a wedding that Lori with Elegant Affairs did the year prior and it was the smoothest flowing wedding I had ever been too and I've been to over 30 weddings in my 26 years of life! These ladies and their timeline are the piece to the puzzle every wedding needs!!!! Lisa not only kept me sane throughout the planning processes but she made my elegant wedding vision come to life!!! During this last year when I would mention to someone that we had a wedding/day of coordinator their response was always, " I wish I would've had one for my wedding." And I don't know how people don't have one!! I seriously just couldn't imagine not having Lisa this last year and especially that day!!! Leading up to the wedding Lisa never said no to my vision even when I had my own doubts. She assured me even our short set up time before our ceremony was doable! She executed my elegant wedding dream so perfectly!!! If there was a hiccup in that day I had no clue and never knew about it, just as every bride should be! I was able to enjoy the day and it sure was a beautiful and emotional day! Lisa has become more than our wedding planner over this year, she has become a friend to Michael and I and we can't thank her enough for everything!
Thank you Lisa and thank you Elegant Affairs!

Foss Waterway Seaport Tacoma Wedding

Michael and Mollee were one of those couples where you felt an immediate connection right off the bat. I really hit it out of the park with these two! From the very beginning, they were such a dream to work with and was extra special having the privilege knowing some of their closest family and friends, as well as sharing common interests like our favorite vacation spots and everything baseball. Michael being the baseball player that he is, knew Mollee was the greatest catch, so it was time they plan their future together as husband and wife. Despite their very busy schedules with Mollee traveling as a flight attendant, Michael's work, baseball schedule, as well as amazing vacations, they made planning easy and fun putting all of the details together over the course of the year.

Living in the heart of downtown Tacoma, Michael and Mollee wanted to get married somewhere close to home and at one of the most beautiful venues on the Tacoma waterfront, the historic maritime museum, Foss Waterway Seaport. We were able to transform the look and feel of the museum into a classic and elegant wedding for both their ceremony and reception. Strong in their values and beliefs, they wanted to show how important it was to keep God at the center of their marriage, so they stood hand in hand in front of the most beautiful wooden cross Mollee's dad built as their backdrop, while their family pastor performed their ceremony.  Surrounded by their nearest and dearest friends and family, the night went on and it was a very memorable reception for all. From satisfying their sweet tooth with the delicious array of mini bites at the dessert bar, to busting out a choreographed dance or two, Michael and Mollee never stopped smiling or embracing their love for one another. Their hearts were full. #itsaforsherwin
