Tacoma Wedding Photographer | Moments and Mountains Photo and Film

Browns Point Lighthouse Park

We were so lucky to be the photographer and videographer for S + J’s Browns Point wedding this summer! Highlights include a dreamy waterfront ceremony, gorgeous boho inspired neutrals, and the most emotional and touching first look! Brown’s Point Lighthouse Park in Tacoma has incredible natural beauty. Since 1933, the lighthouse has stood tall, guiding ships and for this wedding it offered a stunning maritime charm to enhanced the photos and film.

Testimonial: Q and A with the Newlyweds

We loved filming S + J’s wedding so much. We asked them to follow up on a couple questions that might help you think about your wedding day and planning.

Moments and Mountains: What was the highlight of your wedding day?

J + S: We had so many that day. The first look was super emotional. We weren’t sure what would happen when we first laid eyes on each other, but as you can see from the photos, a lot of tears were shed. Declaring our love during the ceremony will always remain a highlight. The wind was crazy and no one in the audience could hear over the wind but they could see us crying and see how incredibly in love we are that the words didn’t matter. The toasts and dancing will stay with us, too. We had the best day possible. We were both filled and overwhelmed by an intense gratitude by having our loved ones, our dearest family and friends, together in the same place.  

Moments and Mountains: What advice do you have for someone planning a Tacoma/Lakewood Wedding?

J + S: Take your time researching venues. It can take a lot more time than you can imagine. Vendors are often booked out, so it’s best to start early. Then you’ll be able to narrow down your venue to see what best fits your style, budget and how many guests you are planning. 

Another thing to be mindful of is the weather. It can be totally unpredictable. The day before we got married, the wind was calm and the day was peaceful. On the day we got married, there was a whipping wind that turned everyone’s hair sideways. It’s probably safer to have a venue that has indoor or outdoor capabilities. 

The last thing is just to do your diligence about permits. There are steps you need to take to have alcohol served. You may have special arrangements with parking. Make sure you get all the permits and permissions beforehand or get someone to handle the details so that you can enjoy this incredible day together. 

The ceremony location looked out over the Puget Sound. I love how J picked a bubble machine for her ring barrier to hold, rather than traditional flower pedals. It made for a fun and whimsical ceremony! It was such an emotional day for of love and fun! There wasn’t a dry eye in the house, including mine!
