Our Wedding

Marjabelle and Jake met at a Sounders game on March 25, 2017 through mutual friends right after Jake had moved to Washington from Ohio. A few years later, in September of 2019, they found each other again and had their first date at Fred's Rivertown Alehouse. Not even a few weeks later and she had him driving her to the airport for her various travels. And in less than a month, they made it official. Less than six months into their relationship, Covid hit where they were forced to have, in essence, a long distance relationship even though they were a mere twelve miles apart. They spent a lot of their time texting and Facetiming and made it out the other end. Since then they have grown more and more both as individuals and as partners. They love to travel, explore local breweries and restaurants, and OCCASIONALLY Jake gets his way and they have a quiet day relaxing with no plans whatsoever. If you're more of a visual person like myself, continue through a collage of pictures over the years to take a peak into our story.

How did we end up here?

Our Story

Photos

Marjabelle's sister and other half. Though separated by over 2000 miles, Marjabelle and Promise have remained inseparable in mind and heart. Marjabelle is constantly plotting for Promise's return to WA so they can live in houses across from each other.

Marjabelle and Rayna have been best friends since before Marjabelle had memories. Rayna has been a loyal protector, constant confidant, and continuous sense of humor in Marjabelle's life for more than 20 years.

Rayna Ross

The Miguel to Marjabelle's Tulio. For the earlier years of Marjabelle and Abi's friendship, they could often be found huddled under a blanket consuming exorbitant amounts of bread and sangria planning to be neighbors when they're old and gray (rocking on their front porches and making fun of the young bucks that pass by).

Abi Patteson

Abbie is one of the very few people that could make a road trip sound like a fun idea to Marjabelle. It is impossible to not have a good time when Abbie is around because she simultaneously makes you feel like a comedian and a philosopher. Marjabelle has truly been blessed by her friendship.

Alyssa and Marjabelle's friendship has grown over the past 3 years to the point where Alyssa usually takes over Jake's roll as Marjabelle's +1. The duo can be found on a random Tuesday enjoying a tulip festival, binging the latest trash tv series on Netflix, or sipping wine flights in San Fransisco.

Marjabelle met Bailey through church and made an instant bond over their constant ADHD leg bouncing habits. They have been on numerous adventures and intend to take their travel adventures international this coming year.

Never a dull time to be had when Marjabelle and Isha are together. Their amount of laughing and weird sense of humor is enough to scare the most sane of individuals.

Though Marjabelle was convinced Julie hated her when they were first introduced at the salon, they quickly formed a strong friendship and have remained each other's biggest hype women throughout many years of life's ups and downs. 

Julie Swanson

Kyle Lewis

Marjabelle's younger sister and new partner in crime after Promise moved away. Marjabelle and Valencia love to quote inside jokes together, find endless memes to laugh about, and make whatever food is sounding good in the moment.

Travel

What is there to do in Washington anyway?

If you are a lover of Ice Cream, this place was made for you! Jake and I stop by pretty much every time we are going north. The ice scream scoops are colossal and there are plenty of other goodies to enjoy throughout the market!

Snow Goose Produce

Lots, and I mean LOTS, of hiking throughout Washington. Plenty of easier hikes to be had just outside of Lake Stevens in the town of Granite Falls.

Old Robe Trail

Whether you're a Seahawks fan or not, preseason games are always a good time and an excuse to have a few drinks and some yummy food in Seattle!

Lumen Field

There is a variety of concert locations with all kinds of artists cycling through Seattle. In the weeks surrounding the wedding, we'll have Beyonce, Coldplay, Arctic Monkeys, Lionel Richie with Earth, Wind &amp; Fire, Eric Church, Jason Aldean, Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper, and Zac Brown Band passing through to name a few.

WAMU Theater

If you are looking for a fancy night out, Jake's favorite spot is Daniel's Broiler in Bellevue where you may just fall in love with a steak. We always get reservations for sunset because, if the clouds don't completely take over the sky, you're in for a spectacular view.

Daniel’s Broiler - Bellevue

For all the wine lovers, Woodinville is abundant with wineries and restaurants galore. If you're in the area you should definitely check out Lifted Taco for a new take on tacos.

Purple Cafe and Wine Bar

Virtual sports + putt putt meets club. Forum Social House is a good time day or night and is within downtown Bellevue so if you need a little retail therapy, head this way!

Forum Social House

Are you even a Seattle tourist if you don't stop by Pike Pace?

Pike Place Market

Whether it's warm or cold out this September, the hot tub boats are sure to be a good time. I would say it's more fun to go right before sunset that way you get to see Lake Union in two different lights!

Hot Tub Boats

Get whacked in the face by your SO's hair on a number of ferries! No, but it really is fun to hop on a ferry and explore one of the islands nearby. The two closest options would be the Edmonds to Kingston ferry or the Mukilteo to Clinton ferry.
