Kira and Allen, 1st Pres., 1013112

Lets Celebrate!

Kira and Allen were married Saturday at one of Portland's Finest examples of turn of the century old world architecture, The First Presbyterian Church, at 12th and Taylor. It is a grand edifice and was built in 1890 (at the present location). The dark rich interior made for a wonderfully romantic and rich backdrop for Kira and Allen's wedding.

While Patrice was shooting Kira's preps, the guys and I were racing tricycles in the courtyard. I know, racing, . . . it's a guy thing. The ceremony was presented by Prof. Lanny Hubbard of the Portland Bible College. After the ceremony we went to the Eastside Esplanade for more pictures and then on to the re-imagined, rebuilt and newly occupied Ambridge Events Center for the party!

The beautiful flowers ( couldn't tell that they were artificial until you got REAL close), were created by Julie (the MOB, mother of the bride). The meal was catered by Ambridge Events Center catering staff. The cake was provided by Beaverton Bakery and included a wedding cake and cupcakes. The party was MC / DJ'd by Kody the BOB (brother of the Bride)

Thanks guys for a wonderful day, even though it sprinkled a bit the rain is a blessing on a wedding day because the rain is what creates all this marvelous greenery we celebrate in the Northwest. SO, . . . congrats !!
