Anna and Walter’s Seattle Asian Art Museum Wedding was a celebration to behold! Picking their perfect venue was the first step, and with a vision that’s minimalist yet vibrant, their wedding day vision came to life with the help of their wonderful vendors.
They started their big day getting ready at the hidden gem Shafer Ballie Mansion just a few minutes away from Volunteer Park. I didn’t even know this was here! A beautiful historic property that I am excited to get to know better.
Thank you vendor team for the flawless collaboration!
