                                    30  A l a s k a B r i d e & G r o o m  2024Bride’s name: Kirsten Swanson Groom’s name: Kevin Moore How they met: “We met on Hinge, but more importantly our first date/first meet-up was at Westchester Lagoon, where I also first met his daughter. She was energetic, kind, funny, and absolutely won over my heart long before Kevin did. Our daughter and I still celebrate that day as our friends-iversary.”Number of guests: 175 Wedding colors: Neutral tones: tan, taupe, gray, brown, black, whiteUnique and special aspects of the day: “From Hank the Moose being our ‘photo booth’ to Serrano’s catering (our favorite date night spot), and Motley Moo’s ice cream sandwiches (our favorite family date night spot), we were able to infuse the wedding with all our favorite things. Our daughter was my husband’s best man − or in her words ‘best child’ − and she came up with the ‘Crazy Straws’ for wedding favors.” The bride wore her great grandmother’s cathedral length veil, her hair and makeup team came straight from her Miss Alaska days, and their close friends sang songs as she walked down the aisle and during the first dance. “Having our friends and family be a part of so many aspects of the day really made it feel intentional and special.”Most memorable moment...For her: “I knew as soon as I started walking down the aisle, that I was right where I was meant to be, with the man of my dreams, that I had waited for, sometimes impatiently, for so long.”For him: “What I remember most about the wedding day was seeing Kirsten so happy walking down the aisle. Her grabbing my hand at the altar, I knew our day had finally come, so much so I got a little excited and kissed her before we even said ‘I do.’ ” Funniest moment: “Hank the Moose (our photo booth) absolutely stole the show, and will be making an appearance on many Alaskan family Christmas cards this year.”Three words that best describe their day: “Fun, elegant, intentional.”
