Today's story comes from a couple that I just adore! They are sweet, kind and so fun to sit down and have a good coffee date with! I love the thought and creativity they have put into their day and cannot wait to deliver their cake this Saturday to see how all the details have come together!
Tell us the story of how you met...
We met at a bar on Capitol Hill...I was there
celebrating a friend's birthday and Burt was standing at the bar drinking a
martini. I struck up a conversation with
him and sparks flew!
How did you know
he/she was 'the one'?
Katie: I knew from the first or second conversation
we had that he was the one. Our
personalities just clicked and he even laughed at my corny jokes:)
Burt: I knew Katie was the one for me after a long
boat trip. We were trying to dock the
boat at the Mukilteo boat launch during high winds and seas. Katie had to hold the boat while I got the
truck and even though there were waves trying to crash the boat into the dock,
she managed to keep it from hitting.
When I came back I was sure she was going to be mad and in a terrible
mood but she was cheerful and chipper as ever!
That told me a lot about her personality.
How did you get engaged?
Burt decided that we just had to try snow
camping this year. We headed out to
Stevens Pass for a snowshoe backpacking trip.
After many wrong turns and an exhausting hike, we set up camp right next
to the trail. After getting the tent up,
Burt thought it would be fun to do "avalanche drills" with our
avalanche beacons. He buried his in the
snow in a dry bag along with the ring box.
I used my beacon to find his and started digging. When I dug up a bag I was a little confused
until I saw the ring box and Burt down in the snow on both knees. It was very romantic!
What are you most looking forward to in
married life?
We are both excited that
we can spend the rest of our lives together jumping from one adventure to the
next.
How would you describe the style of your event?
Our wedding is September 15th at the Bybee-Nims Blueberry Farm in North
Bend, WA. We are having a shabby
chic/rustic themed wedding taking advantage of the beautiful outdoor
location.
What is the style of your
wedding cake? How did you choose
it?
We fell in love with the Lambeth
piping style and the beautiful detail that it encompasses.
