This swanky black tie wedding reception at the Gerding Theatre at the Armory was off the charts fabulous! Kirsten from Bridal Bliss once again really knows how to throw an amazing party! The Armory has some really interesting architecture and lighting, and the beautiful decor throughout really made it complete! Sarah & Brandon had their Catholic wedding ceremony at the University of Portland at the Chapel of Christ the day before and wanted to have their wedding reception the next evening to really focus on the celebration and hours of cocktails and dancing! They did in fact also plan another moment of exchanging their vows and a kiss right before the festivities began. I loved the more casual setting of this one as everyone stood around them and their was in deed a ton of laughter and tears! I loved watching how excited they are to be married and how silly they are with eachother. They both looked fantastic, Brandon looking so dapper in his black tuxedo and Sarah! wow! loved her dress and her shoes! Um-My gosh!
I wanted to share some of Sarah & Brandon’s favorites throughout the evening and wish them all the best in the world!
