same sex seattle wedding ~ seattle yacht club ~ mary & monica
mary and monica…such an amazing couple and such an amazing story…they contacted me a year ago about their wedding on 12/8 and i thought they were awesome and totally stoked to be their photographer. cut to our governor signing same sex marriage into law, the pesky voting process and then boom – wedding licenses were being issued on 12/6 with a 3-day waiting period. how cool then for monica and mary to get married at 5 p.m. on 12/8 and then again and LEGALLY at 12:01 on 12/9?! super cool i tell you…
huge group of women getting ready at one house…with another big group getting ready at another…
i thought that it would be awesome to have them come around to see each other at the same moment…it was WONDERFUL and all of their ladies were watching from behind me…
why yes, that IS a 21 person wedding party!
and they were awesome…
annemarie juhlian delivered SUCH an amazing ceremony…very few dry eyes in the house baby…
so many happy faces and an amazing meal from the seattle yacht club
and then the news crews stopped by for a interview…
and then bamboo beats got their kick ass dance party underway!
erin lindeman events helped make their day seamless and even brought the crowd a late night snack from dick’s!
oh yeah, then they got married again…this time with news crews, the seattle times, friends, family all present and with legal documents!
well, not everyone could stay awake until midnight…
an amazing day that i am so proud to have been a part of.

Hi from Australia. This looked like an amazing wedding. The brides looked beautiful and I love their dresses. They also looked so much in love. The size of the bridal party was impressive, never seen anything like that. Overall, it looked brilliant. Congratulations to the both of you.

These photos are amazing! Such a amazingly beautiful couple! I know who’s taking my pictures! Do you do weddings in Portland?
Shut the front door gorgeous! And that last shot- yum- well done GG <3
Absolutely amazing, so so happy that they can legally get married, just gorgeous.
This is truly the most beautiful thing in the world….I can not wait until Britain legalises Marriage so when I meet the love of my life I can marry her and to not have people tell me it’s not legal….
