:: Fountains @ Laurel Creek! ::



We are always working on projects to make Laurel Creek Manor more and more fabulous each year... and this project is no exception! Nothing could be more beautiful than a photo of the bride and groom next to a sparkling fountain on a warm summer's day! That's exactly why Laurel Creek will now have an incredible massarelli fountain welcoming guests as they drive through the front gate for your wedding! Massarelli is the maker of the finest stone garden accents... check out their website at www.massarelli.com... can you find which fountain is ours?
The fountain is going in now-- and will be ready for all of our 2009 weddings!
Here is it at the very beginning... keep checking back for more posts on the progress of our fountain! Even sitting in pieces on the driveway the fountain still looks as massive and fabulous as ever... I cant wait to see the finished product!


Even in 30 something degree weather... Al spent most of the day digging holes and dumping cement to create a platform for the 1,300lb beauty to sit on!




Not only will there be a fountain in the front yard to greet your guests; but there will be a smaller pedestal fountain to our rose garden in the back for some added ambiance during your reception! Ciao Bella! Check back next week for updates!

:: Bellevue Wedding Expo-- Fun Times!! ::

Thank you to everyone who visited us at the Bellevue Wedding Expo last weekend! We had a blast-- our booth looked great-- and we are even MORE excited for the Bridal Bash coming up! Here are just a few highlights from the weekend's fun...



Welcome to the booth! Al, Laurel and Kirsten(im in the middle :o)- representing Laurel Creek Manor!

We flashed some of our favorite Laurel Creek photos on our big flatscreen.. a perfect way to show off the manor and give a little taste of the beauty you see in person!


I bet your wondering where these beautiful flowers came from.... Well so did everyone at the show! Thanks to the fabulous April VanLierop our booth was brought to life with vibrant, beautiful flowers! Check out more of April's work at www.vanlierops.com !

We met so many wonderful couples at the show and these two were no exception! After a long visit with the two... a few more passes by the booth... and tons of laughing we just had to get a photo with them! Thanks Danielle and Bryan... see you guys at the Tacoma show and hopefully the *Bridal Bash* !



After about 6 hours of being on my feet... in my pumps... I finally had to take a load off. Take a look at this chair... it is beautiful, comfy, and will find its home in the Bridal Suite here at Laurel Creek!




One of the highlights of the Wedding Expo is the Fashion Show.... all the brides, friends, grooms, and even some vendors gather around the stage to check out the newest trends in bridal fashion!

What did we do during the fashion show?!

Well.. my dear friend and photographer Christy Pelland came to help out laurel creek for a while. Now- the two of us have seen plenty of fashion shows so we took this opportunity to test out one of the other trends in modern weddings.... a Photo Booth!!


Photobooth Services is a great company that was in a neighboring booth. This is such a great new way to make a guestbook and let your guests take home a piece of the party! We have had Photobooth Services at Laurel Creek Manor in the past-- and we hope to see it again this year!

Check out Christy's Blog to find more from our weekend at the Bellevue Bridal Expo! And don't forget to RSVP for Laurel Creek Manor's Bridal Bash... you won't want to miss it!
