Ruths Chris Steakhouse - Wine Cellar Wedding - Brady & Sara - Seattle Wedding Photographer

This downtown Seattle wedding at Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse had me feeling giddy inside. Before this wedding I had gone through a new lighting course – Justin & Mary’s Lighting Guide – and I knew so much of that knowledge would come in handy on this day.

I arrived very early to the Grand Hyatt Seattle to make sure we found the best places within walking distance for our bridal party wedding photos. Sara was calm, cool & collected as I arrived to start photographing her wedding dress, wedding rings and bridal details. As the ladies got ready I went off with the groom and groomsmen to walk around the city for some shots. We quickly swapped out making sure Brady was not to come out of his hotel room until notified. The bride, Sara and her bridesmaids rocked it! Sara had them in mismatched burgundy purple bridesmaids dresses with black shawls.

The wedding ceremony was held in the wine cellar below the restaurant, followed by a cocktail hour while the room was switched into seating for a 3 course meal. So much love filled this room, while toasts were being made the mic was passed to many people reminiscing with the newlyweds and congratulating them.
