Beth & Robbie. A Seattle Courthouse Elopement.

Beth and Robbie’s Intimate Seattle Courthouse Elopement

Beth and Robbie reached out to me just a few weeks before their Seattle courthouse elopement. They knew they wanted a simple, intimate day focused solely on their love for each other. A big traditional wedding just wasn’t their style, and they felt a courthouse elopement was the perfect fit.

We started the day with a beautiful first look at Parsons Gardens on Queen Anne. This hidden gem provided the perfect private spot for them to exchange their vows. The peaceful atmosphere made the moment even more special, as they were able to focus entirely on each other. Despite the rain, they didn’t let the weather dampen their spirits. They hopped into a vintage convertible and drove downtown to the courthouse. Although the rain kept the top up, it added a classic Pacific Northwest touch to their adventure.

Their Seattle courthouse ceremony was simple yet beautiful. Judge Faye Chess officiated, and the couple exchanged their heartfelt vows once again. Afterward, we headed to a rooftop overlooking the iconic Moore Theatre for a few urban portraits. The drizzle continued, but it only added to the charm of their photos, capturing the essence of a true Seattle courthouse elopement.

Beth and Robbie’s day was a perfect example of how meaningful an elopement can be. It allowed them to focus on each other without any distractions. Even with the rain, the love and joy between them shined through every moment.
