Tasha and Andy’s wedding ROCKED!!  Like…LITERALLY.  From the killer dance moves on the dance floor to the table numbers that were band names instead of numbers…this was a wedding MADE to turn into an epic party!  I mean, who can say no to dancing when you’re sitting at The Rolling Stones table??  Tasha and Andy’s friends and family came together to make this a beautiful and incredibly fun wedding, and something people said over and over during the toasts were how much these two care for their friends.  It’s so obvious that these two have surrounded themselves with a beautiful and loving community, one that couldn’t be happier to see them making it official after many years together!
Tasha and Andy live in Warren, but their wedding happened all throughout Columbia County.  The ladies got ready at The Vanity Room in St. Helens, then hit McCormick Park just down the street for some photos.  The ceremony took place on the riverside at Welter Beach in Rainier, and then the party moved to Goble Tavern for an open-air reception underneath the willow tree.   Before their grand entrance, we stopped at Trojan Park for a few formal photos of Tasha and Andy at one of their favorite spots.
This reception!!  The details were all so heartfelt, handmade, and full of love.  Tasha and her sister made these beautiful paper flowers that were used in her bouquet, on the cake, and as table decor.  Tasha started collecting vintage brass keys and used them in the seating cards.  At each table, there were sheets of paper for guests to fill out with their favorite memories and their hopes for the couple, along with a Polaroid camera  so they could attach a photo to the card.  How cool is that??  
Tasha and Andy, thank you so much for inviting me to document your wedding day.  You’re a beautiful couple and have SO MUCH LOVE surrounding you!  Enjoy your honeymoon!
