If you aren't driving, we recommend flying into Seattle-Tacoma International Airport
There are lots of ways to get to downtown!
There are car rental services, and Lyft and Uber are relatively inexpensive although recently Yellow Cab taxi located in the Ride Share and Taxi Cab section on floor 3 of the parking structure of the airport, has been the more cost effective route to the Downtown core.
If you are feeling more adventurous, the light rail is only a few dollars to downtown Seattle.
Summer is the busiest tourist season in Downtown Seattle. Please make your arrangements as soon as possible for the best rates and availability.
We know some of you may choose to travel in with a larger group and get an Airbnb or Vrbo. We encourage you to make accommodations that best fit your needs, however we do suggest you book in the 98119 (Queen Anne, Belltown and Ballard) area if you want to be close to the bride and groom for pre and post wedding activities.
While we have a few registries in place, we are happily accepting cash donations to our honeymoon fund.

Welcome to Washington, all of you out of towners! The weather can be funny. During the day, the weather in Seattle should be beautiful, averaging 65-70 degrees, but will get chilly at night. Please bring some warm layers for the evening, we don't want anyone freezing their bu... you get the point. ;)
To keep inline with the theme, think beach dressy-casual. Please no jeans or flip flops.
Calling all ladies! Do not wear stiletto heels. I repeat, do not wear stiletto heels. To access the beach you have to walk over a short foot bridge, through a grassy park and onto the sand. There are a bunch of grassy/dirt areas, chunky heels or sandals are recommended. (Please, no flip flops)
