Our Wedding

Hannah and Shaydon met through Hannah's brother, Nick, who works at Amazon with Shaydon. Shaydon threw a Halloween party in October of 2022, where Hannah and Shaydon met for the first time. There were immediate sparks. Hannah was still in school, so she had to move back to Spokane, not seeing Shaydon for another 8 months. Shaydon had asked Nick to live together in May of 2023, and Hannah and Shaydon quickly grew closer, as Hannah liked to hang out with Shaydon's new kittens and help decorate Nick and Shaydon's new place. Shaydon asked Hannah out to a movie in August of 2023, where on the drive, he confessed that he had feelings for Hannah, and Hannah reciprocated having those feelings. After the movie, Hannah and Shaydon spent almost every single weekend together and eventually moved in together in February of 2025. The proposal happened at the lighthouse at Discovery Park in Seattle on their 2 year anniversary, a common place for their picnic dates.

Dress Code

A majority of Shaydon's family has already booked at this hotel for a decent rate, if you would also like to book at this hotel. They offer free breakfast and free parking, and also have an outdoor pool!Follow this link to book with our Group Rate!(if you book before July 27th)<a href="https://reservations.travelclick.com/10700?groupID=5198925" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://reservations.travelclick.com/10700?groupID=5198925</a>

Redmond Inn

As an initial offering, we booked a group rate at this hotel. If you prefer this hotel over the Redmond Inn, feel free to book here. This hotel is roughly $28 more per night, and an additional $16 for parking. The only room configuration offered under this booking is single King (Redmond Inn offers a 2 Queen option at the group rate). That said, this hotel is very close to the other, and may in fact be closer to many Redmond amenities including the Redmond Town Center outdoor mall, where a Macy’s once stood that Hannah would shop at, which has since been turned into the Amazon office Shaydon works at!Please use this link to book with the group rate:<a href="https://app.marriott.com/reslink?id=1772820703867&amp;key=GRP&amp;app=resvlink" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://app.marriott.com/reslink?id=1772820703867&amp;key=GRP&amp;app=resvlink</a>
