Angela and Josh have an Elopement Wedding at Kerry Park

I as first contacted by Angela back in May.  She and Josh were planning a two-part wedding; first a micro wedding/elopement at Kerry Park in the morning, followed by a nice reception at a restaurant for their family and friends.  It sounded like a lot of fun and we hit it off well in our conversations, and I was hired to photograph the events of the day.

The wedding took place on a very nice August morning at Kerry Park on Queen Anne Hill.  Seattle Center and the Space Needle were the immediate background, with Mt Rainier clearly visible in the distance.  Present were the bride and groom, their friends (and witnesses) Annie and Adam, and the Officiant, Judge Gregg Hirakawa.  Fortunately it was early enough that the crowd at the park was fairly small, and we were able to easily get a good spot for the ceremony.

Once the ceremony was over, we spent some time first at Kerry Park taking some photos then moved down the street to Parson’s Garden for a few more pictures.

Next came a break of several hours befire the reception at Baron’s Sino Kitchen & Bar in Lincoln Place in Bellevue.  This is a gorgeous Chinese restaurant and because Josh and Angela had arranged to have their reception between the end of lunch and the start of dinner they had the entire restaurant to themselves.

Photos of the day can be seen below
