Naccarato Photography Blog

For you brides in the “wedding ideas” planning process of choosing a wedding cake, our friends at Charlotte’s Weddings and More put out a Blog post about what they saw out there during the 2011 Wedding Season.  Be sure to check it out!

As a professional wedding photographer, I always love to see what brides have come up (design wise) for their special cake.  There are some awesome cake bakeries out there that do phenomenal jobs and have great customer service.  One in our hometown of Wilsonville, Oregon is Lamb’s Thriftway.  Their bakery and designers are some of the best around and are great to work with.  They also do cupcakes!

We had never met Danny or Crystal before they booked us for their wedding, but we did know her father Ted.  He put us in touch with one another and we all hit it off like we had known each other for years.  Their choice of locations was in Hood River, where her family had grown up.  What a beautiful location up the Gorge of the Columbia River and they had a great chance the weather was going to be awesome, which it was.  Crystal was in a beautiful wedding dress from Charlotte’s Weddings and More and her hair beautifully done by Teresa Davis.

The ceremony was overlooking the Columbia River with a slight breeze to help cool their guests from the hot sun.  After the ceremony was complete, they shared a beer in typical Crystal and Danny fashion, and headed for the reception area when the party was headed up by Chris of Muchmore County who was a phenomenal DJ.  The cake was done by Carol of Palate Pleasers and was outstanding if I do say so myself.

We had a blast and were so honored to be a part of capturing their day.
