Our Wedding

Almost twelve years, two continents, several states, countless museums, a few trips here and there, one chocolate tourist trap in Scotland, and now Wisconsin. Not a bad run. We're throwing a party — we hope you'll come.

Twelve years, two continents, one adventure

Our Story

Photos

We're on a beach in the Pacific Northwest in July — (it will be beautiful, it will also potentially be cold, and heels are a bad idea on grass and gravel).Wear something you can dance in. A layer is not a bad idea.Lisa will be in sequins. Blake will be in rather nice shorts. Guests should aim somewhere between those two options.

Q + A

SeaTac (SEA) is the largest airport near Whidbey Island and most people fly into this airport. However, depending on your airline - Paine Field is in Everett or the Bellingham International Airport may be better options for you

Seattle-Tacoma International Airport

To get to the island without a car - the Whidbey SeaTac shuttle runs directly from SeaTac to Oak Harbor. It's about 60 dollars one way and a reservation in advance is required. Book the Oak Harbor stop and let us know - we'll arrange a ride from the spot to your hotel and to your hotel to the venue

Travel

Dramatic bridge views and rocky beaches and woods. One of the very most stunning spots in Washington State (I am biased). The Goose Rock trail (about 4 miles, easy to moderate) is a great way to see it properly.

Deception Pass State Park

Yes - it is wonderful. The Blue Fox in Oak Harbor has been there&nbsp;for over 65 years and long may it continue. I have lost track of how many movies I've watched there (what else do teenagers on an island do?) but all of my memories are fantastic, even when I stayed up to see what the old lady did with the necklace. I am now an adult who cannot stay up for a double feature, but don't let that stop you.

Blue Fox Drive-In Theatre

Consistently excellent. Go look at some art - Lisa loves the porcelain room

Seattle Art Museum

Stunning glass art near the Space Needle. We like art. Absolutely worth it.

Chihuly Garden and Glass

Part music museum, part sci-fi archive, part fever dream. Hard to explain but very easy to enjoy.

Museum of Pop Culture

It is very cool, yes. But we think the things listed above are cooler - but if you haven't been, it is worth seeing

We are two people in our forties who own many appliances and have an abundance of degrees and books. What we don't own is a house. We truly don't expect anything, but if you're inclined, contributions to our home fund are deeply appreciated.
