In ancient Rome, Juno was the goddess
who watched over women and marriage. The month of June was named for her. It's a month for weddings and handfasting, so one could easily honor Juno at this time of the summer solstice.

The Pacific North West is the perfect backdrop to celebrate the union of two families no matter where you are from. That is of course, if you don’t mind the weather changing from a mild rain storm with a slight breeze, to bright sunny skies in a matter of minutes. No joke! If you don’t believe me, ask the locals. We are well trained to embrace the inconsistencies by “layering up” when it comes to our daily dress. We are extremely fortunate to live in a place where we get to enjoy the four seasons. Also, keep in mind that the rain is what keeps our surrounding area green.

Funny enough, in the Medieval and Renaissance era the bride wore a green dress to represent her youth, fertility and harmony. Queen Victoria was married in a white dress in 1840, which started the trend that we have been familiar with in the past century. In reccent years however, all colors have been used in weddings from everything from the décor, to the bridesmaid dresses and groomsmen ties. The modern brides dress has traditionally been white or ivory but this year we are seeing her in a very modern emerald color. |
