We photographed an exciting Night of the Henna event at the exquisite Nines Hotel in downtown Portland. The bride, Eman, is the daughter of famous designer Fiona Cibani, so every detail was creatively designed and executed. The night was filled with many interesting nuances ranging from live gold fish in the table center pieces to the exotic Middle Eastern belly dance by Astryd Farah deMichel. The festivities were perfectly coordinated by Jules Rupae of Another Perfect Production and Morgan Griffin of the Nines Hotel. The staff at the Nines Hotel were amazing to work with.
Other fun details were: Pearl necklaces were given to all ladies who attended as favors, great cocktails such as Mango honey, a great Middle Eastern band, henna ceremony with cake and henna candle.

Gorgeous event! Especially love the bride’s gown. You did a wonderful job (as usual) on the images, great work.
WOW!! Love the details pics and all the colors. Fantastic! I am very happy to find your work blog tonight. My favorite here is the bride coming through the door, and the b/w pic of the guys outside the door is timeless. Best wishes for 2009. Hoffmann
