Things To Do
Fuji Bakery-Elliott/Interbay
Our favorite bakery! They have unique Japanese pastries that are to die for :) Des' favorite: the bacon cheese braid. Erik's favorite: the mustard bacon epi or beef curry bite!
The Spheres
Erik's work office!! You can go into the Spheres and look at the exotic plants or eat at the cafe inside :) Careful - its very humid inside!
Golden Gardens Park
Our favorite park in Seattle - perfect for hammocking and watching the sunset, especially in the summer!
Crystal Mountain Resort
See the most beautiful view of Mt. Rainier, ride up the side of the mountain in a Gondola, one of the most magical views in all of Washington! We ALMOST got married here! :)
Snoqualmie Falls
Waterfall right next to the hotel we are staying at for the night of the wedding! Its a 5 minute drive from the venue - definitely worth the trip! If you don't want to do the full falls trail, you can park at the Salish Lodge and walk to the middle of the falls to the viewpoint :) its absolutely gorgeous!
Kangaroo & Kiwi
One of our favorite bars - right next to our apartment in Ballard! This bar used to be a library and serves great food and drinks :)
Pike Place Market
The historical Pike Place Market! Absolutely lovely. If you've never been, you should definitely check it out! Home of the Seattle Gum Wall and the first ever Starbucks!
Leavenworth
A lovely little German mountain getaway town! About 3 hours East of Seattle, if you have a few extra days to kill then definitely stay here!!
The Seattle Great Wheel
The infamous Great Wheel of Seattle! Super fun if you're walking down the boardwalk :)
Ascend Prime Steak & Sushi
One of the best steakhouses around Seattle! Enjoy an amazing view of the Seattle skyline from the top floor of a skyscraper in Bellevue :) One of our all time favorite places to go
Salish Lodge & Spa
If you want a bit of a nicer stay while you're in town or want to pamper yourself with a spa day, Salish Lodge is the place to stay! 5 minutes away from the venue and other hotel!
