Llamas and Alpacas at your wedding

From Kayla Jannika Photography: I wanted to center a photoshoot around showcasing vendors of Seattle and Portland. Mountain Peaks Therapy Llamas & Alpacas is an incredible non-profit organization with an amazing mission and we wanted to showcase their beautiful animals in a different way. Why not weddings? We wanted to exude "classic" and "elegance", "vintage" and "modern".

ballerina and alpacas

Our bride is a ballerina of the Pacific Northwest Ballet--A beautiful ballerina bride and some adorable alpacas--and we centered everything around that idea. We wanted everything around them to be simple, clean, and elegant. We thought of jewel ruby tones. We found an amazing indoor location in downtown Portland, Opal28. Their venue is the perfect size and gives off that rustic, vintage, classic feel. We used two rental companies and a calligraphist from Portland as well.

With florals we wanted something to match the venue and our florist, Flower + Fern, from Seattle has such uniqueness with his arrangements. He created an installation that served as our ceremony spot and an intricate shaped bouquet. This shoot was such an amazing collaboration with each vendor showcasing things they thought would be perfect for our base theme and our videographer captured it all so beautifully.

We wanted our table setup to be modern and wanted a different idea than a typical "cake and dessert table." Our rental companies thought of a shelving unit with rows of treats. We thought fruits, and delicate desserts, and why not popcorn and created a unique setup.
