We are thrilled to share Coline and John’s enchanting The Lodge at St. Edward State Park wedding! The Lodge at St. Edward State Park is set in the tranquil forest of St. Edward State Park on the Northeast shore of Lake Washington. This historic landmark is perfect for your quintessential Pacific Northwest wedding. Their many outdoor and indoor venues allow you to design the day of your dreams. Have your ceremony hidden in the trees at The Grotto before arriving in the Remington Ballroom to dance the night away. If you need some time to wind down before you retire to your room, enjoy a relaxing drink in The Tonsorium Bar.

Our photographers started their day by shooting the thoughtful details and stunning venue of this remarkable wedding. After capturing the floral arrangements and architecture, we joined Coline and John as they readied for their big day. John eagerly awaited Coline for their first look at the end of a sunlit hallway, and they were inseparable upon seeing each other. Capturing these moments is a favorite. We then took their portraits against the historical building and greenery before the ceremony.

Amidst a forest canopy, Coline and John exchanged vows. Guests enjoyed cocktails on the patio while the couple signed their license. They entered the Remington Ballroom to cheers, enjoying delicious cuisine by The Lodge at St. Edward’s team. Heartfelt speeches followed, and guests hit the dance floor to celebrate.

We are so grateful to have had the pleasure of capturing Coline and John’s magical day! We can’t wait for you to see their stunning photos below!
