Martina and Chris get married at the Alki Bathhouse<\/h1>\n

Here are some photos from the wedding of Martina and Chris, held at the Alki Bathhouse in West Seattle in mid-August. \u00a0I can’t quite believe that this wedding slipped past me and did not make it into the blog until now, but I’m happy to be able to finally get some photos from this event online.<\/p>\n

This wedding took place on one of the incredible summer days that we enjoyed for much of August, with temps in the 80s and almost cloudless blue skies. \u00a0The Alki Bathhouse is a small and simple but very nice facility\u00a0located on the NW\u00a0side of Alki Point. \u00a0The original Bathouse was built in 1911, and was a large structure featuring a gym, dressing rooms, a cafe and hot saltwater baths. \u00a0The Bathhouse burned in 1955, and the current Bathhouse was built on a small piece of the original foundations. \u00a0For anyone who has ever visited Alki on a sunny weekend, you know that finding a place to park can be almost impossible as it is a VERY popular place to go to beat the heat. \u00a0knowing this, I arrived early but still had to park at least a quarter mile away from the Bathhouse in order to find a parking place.<\/p>\n

Once the bride and groom arrived (they also had trouble finding parking) we organized some photos with family and friends. \u00a0This was a rather interesting operation due to the hundreds of unintentional “photo bombers” who kept getting into the photos, but we had a lot of fun with the process.<\/p>\n

The ceremony was held inside the Bathhouse, which worked out wonderfully. \u00a0The indoor ceremony kept everyone cool in spite of the warm temperature, and also kept us from being potentially mobbed by interested bystanders. \u00a0Martina and Chris had opted not to have a traditional wedding party, and the ceremony was very simple, with music provided by a very good duo.<\/p>\n

Here are a few photos from the day, I hope you enjoy them.<\/p>\n
