Girdwood Wedding at Raven Glacier Lodge with Rebekah & Chaz

One of my all time favorite venues for weddings is the Raven Glacier Lodge in Girdwood, Alaska.

It is nestled among towering evergreens. It is a magical place. My assistant last year, said she expected fairies to jump out at every turn. Yep - that’s how it feels!

In addition to it's magical setting Raven Glacier Lodge has an infamous host and owner.

Kathy is not on social media, doesn’t seem to have a webpage and is quite the challenge to get a hold of. Every bride I talk to gives a big sigh and says how hard it is to try to track her down!

But, let me tell you - it is totally worth the struggle. As far as I know, there are not too many venues of this nature in the close proximity to Anchorage: small, cozy, pure magic, the perfect micro-wedding destination.

I had the great pleasure to create florals at this venue a couple of times in 2021. Here is one of those weddings!

Rebekah and Chaz wanted fall colors for their flowers.

I incorporated lots of greenery for a slightly loose and wild look. Bright rusty-orange and burgundy dahlias were the stars of this wedding.

Special thanks to Joe Connolly at Chugach Peaks Photography for these gorgeous photos.

Miller's Landing Wedding in Seward, Alaska with Caitlin & Nate

Caitlin and Nate had a beautiful beach wedding in Seward, Alaska.

Weather in Alaskan can always be hit or miss, especially by the ocean where clouds can roll in and get stuck for days or even weeks on end. That is why this couple was so incredibly lucky to have a sunny break on their big day.

I remember sending flowers off with Caitlin the day before and both crossing our fingers in hopes of good weather!

My favorite part of Caitlin’s bridal bouquet was the incredible variety of florals I was able to fit in. Part of a beautiful bouquet for me is lots of floral types and textures.

Here are some of the varieties: Hydrangea, Anemone, Ranunculus, Rose, Dara, Amaranth, Oregano (I love popping in a bit of garden herb if at all possible), Strawflower, Yarrow, Snapdragon, and Dahlia.
