Among all of the meticulous, thoughtful details that go into a wedding, some of the best still happen on the spur of the moment. Such was the case with Steven Balloun, a custom home remodeler, and graduate student Tiffaney Gilstrap when they released two oversize white balloons into the air moments after saying “I do” at the Rio Vista winery in Chelan. “Our initial idea was to use the balloons by the road so that our guests would know where to turn,” the bride says, but given the pair’s last name, an impromptu balloon ritual seemed more appropriate. Although one balloon unexpectedly popped on a tree branch during its flight, the fun-loving couple took it in stride, with Tiffaney joking, “They must have been destined to be unity balloons as two became one—just like us!” 36-inch latex balloons available on Amazon.com, $10/pack of 3.
