Vintage Inspired Carnival Wedding in Seattle
Erin and Richard put together a carnival wedding inspired by James and the Giant Peach, Alice in Wonderland, and Big Fish. This wonderland wedding was beautifully captured by La Vie Photography. Everything about this wedding screams fun, from the invitations to the reception décor!

The bride designed her own invitations. We love all the different parts: a ceremony invitation, transportation card, RSVP post card, a hanky (with the words “keep your heart warm and your eyes dry”, and an invitation for the reception.


The programs were little newspapers, we hope this becomes a trend because we are loving it!

Their ceremony took place at The Ruins in Seattle, WA. What a room!


The reception was breathtaking! The draping from above blew us away! What a magical day.


They had scratch tickets for each guests seat.







The dessert table was beyond expression. We would have gained a lot of weight if we had been there. I can’t decide which dessert is my favorite!

Wow this is so beautiful. It gives me so many wedding ideas. 🙂
There exists a pattern inside weddings nowadays to escape the anticipated as well as the standard. What a great way to accomplish that!
If I were I would be there,in the ceremony.

I’m just obsessed with the paper products in this wedding, and blown away that the bride did them herself! Is she a designer? I am so curious! The fonts, colors, patterns — everything — she chose are spectacular.
