Georgetown Ballroom Wedding | Maureen + Alex

I spent a wonderful day with Maureen and Alex, a terrific couple who went to every length to make their wedding reflect their fun-loving personalities. The did their reveal at the Seattle Grand Hyatt Hotel before walking over to Pike Place Market with their wedding party for some portraits. We had fun at the gum wall, and they bought flowers from a market vendor before heading to the Georgetown Ballroom. We did some additional portraits at a nearby park and the train tracks before the ceremony began. The couple cracked up their guests by playing “rock, paper scissors” to see who would say their vows first.  Delicious, unique food was served next, highlighted by Veraci Pizza, vintage candy such as Pop Rocks and Chuckles, and a wide selection of vintage soda pops served in bottles. Guests were entertained by a custom-made Maureen and Alex crossword puzzle and put their best wishes onto crafty DIY guest book pages. At dusk, lucky guests received a surprise treat as Molly Moon’s ice cream truck pulled in to serve up cones and cups full of creative flavors. Kudos to Sheena from The Invisible Hostess for keeping all the balls in the air throughout the evening. Their unique wedding was a perfectly quirky and wonderful way for Maureen and Alex to begin their married life together.   |  Andy

    Great photos, and I especially appreciate the photographers sensitivity in not publishing close ups of the gum on the gum wall.

  7. Carol Gulczynski says:

    As the mother of the groom, I will say that I love these photos. My favorite so far is the one in the alley of the bridal party – so Seattle, so “West Side Story”. I also liked the one of my husband looking up at the plane flying overhead as he works at Boeing. Very fitting. I am looking forward to seeing the rest, particulary the family photos.

  8. Estrella says:

    Outstanding photos! I can’t pick my favorite one, there are so many. The vivid colors are striking. I am blown away at how the father daughter dance was captured along with the transforming colors of the lanterns and lights. Bottle caps and rings, what a great idea for a close up! Bless you Alex and Maureen in your journey together. You got off to a great start.
