♥Until next time, lovely city♥ Seattle, WA. July 2014.
Our last night in Seattle was about as dreamy and perfect a farewell to the city as I could imagine. Our thoughtful hosts were taking another group out on their 50 ft sailboat, and offered us a few spots on the boat. We jumped at the chance and invited a couple of local friends we’d been trying to meet up with. We five friends…

As a post-wedding treat, the bride and groom put together a little campfire on the beach at Puget Sound. Happy to be together as long as possible, everyone gathered on the beach around the flames, watching the sun set behind the Olympic Mountains, toasting marshmallows, and trying to stretch out the evening, the laughter, the hugs and the togetherness just a little longer.
A few of my favorite snaps from the wedding of our lovely friends in Seattle.
We’re always happy when our friends fall in love with wonderful people and decide to get hitched. More often than not, it means we get to travel for a wedding, and I can’t think of anything better than exploring another place but still being surrounded by good friends, especially when those friends are typically scattered around the country. Late July saw us traveling to…
