Chateau Lill

Where Timeless Elegance Meets Joyful Beginnings

Branden & Monica's Woodinville Wine Country Wedding at Chateau Lill was nothing short of magical. The serene beauty of this venue provided the perfect backdrop for their journey into matrimony. As a Seattle wedding photographer who appreciates the finer details, I couldn't help but capture every moment of their special day.

The morning began with Monica getting ready at Salon Maison, where her stunning wavy locks and natural makeup were perfected. Her mother's loving attention to every detail, including a last-minute dress steam, was truly heartwarming. A toast with the bridesmaids in matching robes and bubbling champagne flutes set the tone for the day. When Monica stepped into her Hailey Paige wedding dress, a collective sigh of awe swept through the room. She embodied timeless elegance.

The anticipation grew as Monica and Branden prepared for their first look. Branden's joyful patience at the bottom of the stairs in front of Chateau Lill was a testament to their love. Their emotional embrace and sweet whispers marked the beautiful beginning of their wedding day.

Our photography session took us around the Woodinville wedding venue, from the Chateau to the charming white barn and the picturesque grapevines. The bridal party, dressed in muted mint green gowns and sharp charcoal suits, radiated style and elegance.

One of the most touching moments was capturing family portraits. As a mom myself, I understand the importance of these precious memories. A series of photos with the bride, groom, and each of their parents holds immense value.

Now, onto the ceremony. Monica and Branden exchanged vows on a forested hillside overlooking Woodinville wine country, surrounded by their loved ones. Tears, laughter, and the promise of happily ever after filled the air. The joy on their faces as they walked back up the aisle was truly unforgettable.

Following the ceremony, we ventured to the candlelit barrel room to make their marriage official. Monica's dress was quickly bustled, a skill honed from my previous experience as a bridal consultant.

Under a tent adorned with exquisite white and green floral arrangements by Fena Flowers, Mr. & Mrs. Fitzpatrick celebrated their new status with toasts and a delectable dinner courtesy of Herban Feast. BreeAnn of Pink Blossom Events, the talented wedding planner behind it all, left her mark with her impeccable sense of style and flawless execution.

The couple's love for pineapples was evident throughout the decor, but the pineapple cake stole the show. BAKED truly outdid themselves. As the night continued, the dance floor came alive with glow wands and energetic guests, their moves immortalized through my lens.

The evening concluded with a magical sparkler exit, a perfect ending to Branden and Monica's timeless, joyful Chateau Lill wedding.
