Located a few feet right next to the wedding venue. Pike Place Market is one of the most popular markets in Seattle and offers a wide variety of shops and eateries centered around a public farmers market located by the waterfront. It's also one of the oldest continuously operating markets in the entire country, so you'll be experiencing a bit of history during your visit (including the world's first Starbucks).

For the coffee lovers (or anyone visiting Seattle really). The Starbucks Reserve Roastery in Seattle is 1 of 6 in the world. Just a few blocks from Pike's Place Market. It's basically an extra-fancy Starbucks that takes itself very, very seriously. The menu is quite different from a typical Starbucks, with single-origin coffees roasted on-site, alcoholic beverages, and freshly-made Italian food. In addition to this Seattle location (which opened in 2014), there are outposts in Shanghai, Milano, New York, Toyko, and Chicago.

The Space Needle is an icon in Seattle. Standing at 605 ft tall and as one of the most recognizable buildings in the world. Visitors get to enjoy the only 360-degree panoramic views in Seattle. From the “top house” you can see glimpses of downtown Seattle, the mighty Mount Rainier, and Puget Sound. The newly renovated Space Needle features floor to ceiling glass walls for the most complete viewing experience. The upper level also has an outdoor viewing deck, with open-air glass walls!
