Sunflowers and Happy Tears in Wedding at Axis Pioneer Square

With only one free day before Jennifer left town and Brett was scheduled for an on-call shift, the pair were determined to meet for a drink. That meeting left them on cloud nine (even after Jennifer had a minor scuffle with a pothole while riding a scooter to get there).

Set against the exposed brick of AXIS Pioneer Square, the couple’s wedding day brimmed with candlelit romance. Delicate greenery mixed with an abundance of baby’s breath, creamy white roses and pops of sunflowers created an inviting ceremony atmosphere. A hush fell over the crowd as Jennifer and Brett recited their vows, exchanging words that promised a lifetime of love through happy tears.

The reception overflowed with playful coziness and personal touches. Proud pet parents to their cat, Leo, the newlyweds found plenty of spots in which to spotlight him, including on cocktail napkins, in pictures at their head table and, of course, in a giant re-creation of his face gracing the dance floor. Jennifer and Brett kept the party going after their reception ended, leading everyone to the rowdy local bar, Cowgirls Inc, where the bride hopped up on the mechanical bull in her wedding dress. —Ryley S.
