An unseasonably mild November day revealed clear views of Friday Harbor and the surrounding mountains, setting a calm, steady tone for the morning at Saltwater Farm on San Juan Island. Getting ready unfolded quietly inside the glass-wrapped bridal suite, where the wedding party moved at an easy pace, often pausing to watch the water and shifting light outside.
With the weather holding, the ceremony took place outdoors, allowing guests to fully experience the harbor setting as vows were exchanged. As evening settled in, the energy shifted naturally. A generous, family-style dinner encouraged long conversations, while rich winter florals, candlelit tables, and hanging chandeliers created a warm, inviting atmosphere. A live band carried the celebration late into the night, keeping the dance floor full as food, drinks, and connection continued well beyond sunset.
