Vintage #PhotoFriday

I cannot deny that I am a fan of the past, vintage and retro. Thesetweets from previous generations' weddings from as early as the 1920's invoke such emotion as well as providing amazing inspiration. Thank you to the original tweeters for sharing these memories with us!

#GHGH - Be A Giver!

All Seattle wedding peeps know that tonight is the biggest wedding gala of all galas. A time to party and give back.


Get Hitched Give Hope is proudly powered 100% by volunteers in order to maximize donations to our beneficiaries. Board members, team members, designers, performers, and event staff have donated an endless amount of hours, services, and products to make GHGH’s mission a reality.
Get Hitched Give Hope is proud to partner with Dream Foundation and Young Survival Coalition to help carry out final dreams and provide support for survivors.

I've been lucky enough to be embraced by these wonderful Seattle professionals. There just could not possibly be any group of sweeter people in the industry. 
Tonight I'll be volunteering and no doubt tweeting when given half an opportunity *wink*. #GHGH is the hashtag! Nothing could be sweeter.

You can still purchase ticket at the door, tonight at the Four Seasons in beautiful downtown Seattle. Festivities start at 6pm.
