Twinkle, Shine, and Glimmer — A Classy Wedding

Classy Wedding

Paria and Farahmand’s love story reads like a movie script. The pair originally met in Turkey when they were kids and then their families moved apart… but they later reconnected and got engaged! Paria is a Canadian citizen who planned their Seattle wedding from afar with the help of Pink Blossom Events. Photographer Kimberly from Alante Photography describes what set their wedding apart “they had a really ‘brand name’ wedding.” So feast your eyes, label lovers – there are Jimmy Choo shoes, Burbery accessories and a Rolls Royce wedding car.

And for readers whose radar doesn’t show up brand names, there’s lots and lots of lovely sparkly bits and bobs to distract your attention for a few moments.

I think wedding colour scheme that twinkles and glistens is great for every season and especially for darker winter days. I’d love to know what you think, leave me a comment below!
