"You had me at Four Seasons" was a common response from our guests. My husband and I have stayed here many times and knew it was the place we wanted to be married. From event planning down to the last garnish on a dish, the professionalism, out of this world service, and quality of the venue, food, and ambience made both of us and all of our guests feel they were treated to a once in a lifetime experience. While this ended up being 40% of our budget, it was a truly an unforgettable event because of what the hotel flawlessly executed. Setup was completed in just a couple of hours, smiling and genuinely happy staff abounded, and the food was remarkable. How many times do you go to an event and the food lives up to the "rubber chicken dinner" reputation? Guests are still talking to us about it: "I could cut the beef tenderloin with a fork", everything was hot and beautifully presented like a 5-star restaurant, amazing wines, and the pastry chef hand painted the 'dripping diamonds' on the cake. Washington state was among the first few states to legalize same sex marriage. Many of the websites are not updated to reflect this change and many establishments are getting used to handling the events. The Four Seasons Hotel Seattle is leading - they understand tradition and they embrace modern transformation. Put your worries aside, stop agonizing over hiring the right caterer, and pastry chef, and venue...find a Four Seasons, Seattle with the Puget Sound and ferris wheel views if you're lucky enough, and know that the dreams and expectations you have for your wedding will be exceeded.
