Wedding and Event Locations:

The Woodmark Hotel

The Woodmark's  idyllic location on Lake Washington makes everything more serene. A corporate retreat re-energizes your staff. A family reconnects on a sunset kayaking trip. A lakeside wedding becomes forever. Hugely popular for corporate events, weddings and important family occasions, the Woodmark Hotel & Spa is ultimately a place where guests feel at home, and home is on the shores of Lake Washington.

Recently I had the privilege of spending a couple days at the Woodmark while the Seattle String Trio provided music in the Winter room during  their wedding show on March 29, 2010.   I was delighted with the the whole experience.  The service was wonderful and the room excellent.  

The Willows Lodge in Woodinville

Rural and rustic in ambience, The Willows is the latest entry into
greater Seattle's collection of luxury lodging facilities.  This 86 room,
Northwest-style lodge is situated in Woodinville on five exquisitely
landscaped acres that border the Sammamish River in the 
heart of Western Washington's wine country.  Home to 
The Herbfarm and Barking Frog restaurants, Willows Lodge,
 Spa and Gardens are a "must visit" for locals 
and out-of-towners alike.

 

Newcastle Golf Club

The Golf Club at Newcastle is that story book wedding spot you've been dreaming about. In addition to stunning panoramic views and a majestic English Manor-style clubhouse, The Golf Club at Newcastle's extensive wedding amenities include an elegant bridal suite, personal bridal attendants, a professional in-house catering team, one-of-a-kind photography locations, complimentary parking for over four hundred vehicles, and much, much more.

Photographers:

Jenny GG Photography

Jenny's approach to photography is fun, playful and rarely posed. Authenticity is important – your photos should be about you and your love and the things that make you a couple; they should show the excitement and emotion from your wedding day; they should show the joy and laughter when you play with your kids. Your photos are not about us or our ‘art;’ your life is art and we would like to be the ones to capture it. She wants to create photographs that not only catch the special moments, but that will also tell your story that you will treasure forever.

 

John Nolte

John is an old friend of ours and a remarkable photographer.  At a recent wedding, that Jan officiated at, John got the wonderful photograph of Jan that is on our Minister's page.  We know you will be very pleased with John and his beautiful wife's work and expertise.

“Your wedding is a rare occasion when your friends and family will be together in one location to celebrate one of the most amazing days in your life! Investing in a great video by Edit 1 Media will allow you to see, hear, and FEEL those incredible emotions all over again.
