Summer Comes to a Close

Hi Folks,

I know it's been a minute since I've posted so let me catch everyone up:
It has a been a BUSY Summer here at the Seattle Aquarium. With an incredible special on every Saturday this summer, we've had our hands full! But my oh my what beautiful events we've had. Seattle weather cooperated with us very well and we've got the sunset ceremony photos to prove it!

We also hosted an incredible Bar Mitzvah for an incredible family that featured WWE Wrestler decor and one of the best dance troupes I've seen.

To cap it all off we hosted 1000 people for Seattle's 18th annual Virgo Party. It was an outrageously decadent black tie party featuring booming hip hop music and reveling dancers. The Aquarium was tranformed for a night!

To end the summer we had our final outdoor ceremony overlooking Elliot Bay and the weather just BARELY held on for us!

We began the Autumn season with our fourth annual Latino City Employees Heritage Celebration. It's a wonderful mix of spicy Latino food and even spicier salsa dancing until the wee hours. This has been a great event for us and we hope to continue the wonderful partnership we have with the Latino City Employees.

That's all for now. We're prepping for a Fall wedding on Saturday featuring Australian themed food and wine and a wonderful trans-continental couple.
Before I go, let me post this photo, generously shared by one of our amazing couples and Laurel McConnell Photography this summer. This has got to be one of the coolest shots of the Aquarium I've seen. Take a look:








Happy Fall and see you all soon!
