I’m thrilled to share Alyse and Pawel’s Olympic View Estates wedding. Alyse and Pawel first met on the 4th of July in 2014. They met through a mutual friend while cliff jumping! They dated throughout college, taking turns visiting each other each weekend between Western and UW. Those weekends were filled with fun adventures like motorcycle riding, cliff jumping, boating, and enjoying sushi. Over the years, they grew together as a couple and deeper in love.
Alyse shares their beautiful proposal story, “Pawel proposed in Leavenworth, a few days after Christmas of 2019 in front of the gazebo in the main square, followed by a horse-drawn carriage ride. This is a place we had visited and loved many times as a couple throughout our relationship.” They even named their dog Levin in honor of Leavenworth and their happy engagement memory.
It was such a joy to celebrate this sweet couple on their wedding day. In honor of Pawel’s Polish heritage, they included Polish traditions and details throughout the day. The best part was Alyse surprising everyone, including Pawel, when she shared her vows in Polish! She had secretly been taking Polish classes for over a year. It was so cute to see Pawel’s genuine shock and delight when hearing Alyse recite those beautiful words.
Congratulations Alyse and Pawel! It was an honor to be a part of your special day!
Thanks to all the amazing wedding vendors that helped make Alyse & Pawel’s big day wonderful!
