Clare and Danny’s wedding weekend was full of warmth, meaning, and incredible celebration. The festivities began on Friday with a welcome party at Salty’s on Alki. While the evening brought a bit of classic Seattle rain, guests embraced it with smiles and laughter, setting the perfect tone for the joyful weekend ahead.

By Saturday, the sun emerged and delivered a quintessential Pacific Northwest day at the Seattle Tennis Club. The venue was especially meaningful for Danny, who played tennis competitively in college, making it the perfect place to exchange vows. The ceremony took place on the North Lawn, with music from Puget Sound Strings setting a romantic soundtrack as Clare and Danny said “I do.”

Inspired by Danny’s love of tennis, the couple incorporated playful, vibrant touches into the design. Lemons brought a cheerful brightness, while a soft palette of blues, buttery yellows, and whites complemented the natural beauty of the waterfront setting. Elle Fleurit created breathtaking floral arrangements and even added disco balls above the dance floor for a little extra sparkle.

Guests enjoyed a lively cocktail hour, complete with a specialty drink inspired by the US Open - fittingly named “Honey, I Do.” Dinner followed with a lively set by Oncore, whose music brought incredible energy to the evening. Heartfelt toasts from family added laughter and tears before the dance floor opened, where everyone fully embraced the celebration.

As the night continued, guests moved inside for an unforgettable after party. With quesadillas served in abundance and Destination Music keeping the ballroom alive with great tunes, the evening ended on the highest of notes.

XOXO, Natane
