The Ceremony

There was no question that the wedding would be held at The Lakeside, which Amber's family owns and where Amber, as a director of operations and sales, has watched countless other couples celebrate their weddings. Amber and Fernando knew guests would love the first-rate views of the Seattle skyline and the elegant, Northwest-style decor. The ceremony took place on the patio, where 250 white chairs were tied with bright green bows. Amber walked down the aisle toward a brightly hued huppah that was held aloft by four family members. The Jewish ceremony was performed by a cantor, a family friend.
