It’s such a treat still being able to fly back “home” to Seattle for the odd wedding. And this time – finally! – I lucked out with the weather. Jackie and Tim’s wedding took place on a sparkling Saturday in mid July, at the art deco masterpiece that is Seattle’s Arctic Club Hotel. Sure, it’s a beast to shoot in (hello mixed lighting and insane darkness!), but it’s a phenomenally cool space. I was so happy that they’d booked some rooms in the actual hotel for their preparations:
Jackie’s shoes were amazing. She had hand-glued each one of those diamante sparkles on herself … wow! Her toss bouquet was also pretty cool, and again hand made by Jackie (this lady is seriously crafty!) While the ladies began makeup I went over to the guys’ room to see what they were up to. Tying ties and eating ginormous sarnies, apparently. 
Jackie’s makeup took place in the killer bathroom in the bridal suite. I want that floor, all over my home. Even on the walls.
It was finally time for Jackie to get into her dress. I love this photo of her sister’s girlfriend, Sarah, below … and the shots of Jackie ecstatic as she slips into her gown. And that’s florist Anne from the awesome Floressence Design working on Jackie’s beautiful bouquet.
A couple more shots of the radiant Jackie and then it was off to set up the first look … which will be coming along soon!
