Seattle Elopement at Volunteer Park

When Marcy took a work rotation in the UK, she knew should would be getting an incredible experience, but what she didn’t know, was that thanks to a friendly little dating app (cough-Tinder-cough) she would also be meeting her future husband across the pond! Marcy & Chris’s chemistry was instant, and they knew almost immediately that this wasn’t going to be a casual get together. Despite their budding relationship, Marcy was transferred back to the states, and then decided to take a job in Seattle – putting quite some distance between the two. Even though they had only been together for four months, Marcy & Chris knew this was the real deal and that they wanted to start their life in Seattle, together.

Chris made the journey, some 4,600 miles, to settle in the second rainiest region (at least he was already acclimated!) & the two began their wedding plans. Marcy & Chris quickly fell in love with the beauty of the Pacific Northwest and wanted to have their wedding in a natural setting. Volunteer Park is near their home in Capitol Hill, so for their casual, simple ceremony, it was an easy choice. Marcy’s immediate family and a couple of friends joined for the intimate celebration among blooming hydrangeas on a warm day in July. The ceremony was short & sweet and Marcy’s gorgeous, ear-to-ear smile was contagious. After the ceremony, the family enjoyed electric boating around South Lake Union & feasting on a delicious dinner out downtown. I am so happy to call these two wonderful people friends and I am so glad I was able to photograph this happy day. Congratulations, Marcy & Chris!
