Seattle Wedding Planner, Perfectly Posh Events

Couple Spotlight: Kara + Tanner

Engaged

3 Jun

It’s an amazing feeling when you know you’re going to marry your best friend. Kara and Tanner are one of the lucky few who get to experience this rare kind of love. When they first met in college, they immediately felt a strong connection however both were in relationships and never shared their feelings toward each other. Finally in 2012, Kara and Tanner reunited and have been inseparable ever since! They really took the time to get to know each other but knew the entire time that they found the one. “The connection and pull towards each other was just too strong for it not to be!”

Kara and Tanner have played around with the thought of marriage and kids but little did Kara know that Tanner would pop the question on Christmas Day! On the morning of Christmas 2013, they were opening presents like every other Christmas before. Except this time was much different. The last gift that Tanner had Kara open was a beautiful red bathrobe. When she put it on, he put a blindfold on her and had her reach in her right pocket. It was a tiny old fashioned music box and when she played it, the wedding march came on. Then she reached into her left pocket and took the blindfold off. There she saw Tanner on one knee with the ring!! Every year, Kara and Tanner add the music box to their Christmas tree as a way to remember their super sweet engagement!

Get to know Kara and Tanner a little more…

How do you and your fiance like to spend your free-time?
Anything outdoor: hiking, snowboarding, camping/backpacking, frisbee, bonfires, boating, fishing. Tanner is an amazing (Jazz) piano player as well as drums and the guitar. Kara is a former ballet dancer and figure skater and still enjoys doing ballet. We both spend a lot of time entertaining friends and family as well as being very involved in each other careers. We also love going to sporting events – especially Seahawks games!!

What has been your inspiration while planning your wedding?
A Jazz club feel and venue.

In your home, how do you normally choose to eat, drink and be merry?
To make dinner together, drink manhattans or gin and tonics, and we love having people over for dinner and hosting events.

Describe your fiance in three adjectives:
Kara: Sweet, passionate, committed
Tanner: Passionate, caring, beautiful

What is the number one most important thing to you on your wedding day?
To be able to enjoy the moment and take in the whole day!

T-Minus 10 Days 'till Christmas! I love getting in T-Minus 10 Days 'till Christmas! I love getting into the holiday spirit, and this year calls for some extra cozy at-home time with lots of baking, mulled wine, Christmas jammies every day, and listening to classic Christmas songs.  The lyrics to Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas seem especially meaningful this year, thanks Ms Judy Garland ❤🎄

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
Next year all our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the yuletide gay
Next year all our troubles will be miles away

Once again as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who were near to us
Will be dear to us once more

Someday soon we all will be together
If the fates allow
Until then, we'll have to muddle through somehow
So have yourself a merry little Christmas now

From our home to yours, Happy Thanksgiving to you From our home to yours, Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones! I know this year has thrown a lot at us, but there's still so much to be thankful for. This year we're especially thankful for our healthcare workers, first responders, and grocery workers; thank you for the endless hours of hard work & the risk you're taking while you serve your communities. We are forever grateful. 

Here's to health, and love, and family. Happy Thanksgiving!! 🍂

{And while I wish our table was this full & festive with our family, this year we're opting for a tiny Thanksgiving and sending love to our family from afar.}
