It was originally planned for the Alpental Ski Area, where both are volunteers with the Alpental Ski Patrol, but instead was shifted to the Snoqualmie West Timberline Lodge with a five-day notice because the Alpental ski season was extended another month.

The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Kent Buttars with a Gaelic theme with musicians on pipes, flute, guitar and fiddle and soloist Erin McNamee and included a traditional handfasting ceremony.

The bride’s attendants included Cindy Barton, maid of honor; JoAnn Garrett, matron of honor; Doug Burchard, bridesman; Andrea Smith, bridesmaid and Ashlynn Smith and Mikah Bottenberg, flower girls.

The groom’s attendants included Mikael Norman, best man; Galen Sheely and Robert Rooney, groomsmen; Heather Nicholson, groomsmaid; and Jakab Bottenberg, ring bearer.

Joyce and Norm Bottenberg of Sammamish are the bride’s parents. The groom’s parents are Gail Stewart of Shoreline and Patrick Sheely of Arlington.
