The Edgewater is a waterfront hotel on Alaskan Way in downtown Seattle. It hosts weddings from private elopements to receptions of up to 220 guests, with Elliott Bay and the Olympic Mountains outside the windows.

Why it suits LGBTQ+ couples

The hotel publishes a dedicated page for LGBTQIA+ weddings and describes its service as personal to each couple. It is a strong fit for couples who want one hotel team to handle the ceremony, the reception, the food and the rooms, with a range of room sizes so a small elopement does not feel lost in a large space.

Ceremonies

Intimate ceremonies can take place on the outdoor terrace. The Terrace Room holds up to 50 guests and has a stone fireplace and skyline views. The Forest Room holds up to 24 and suits a very small group. Larger ceremonies can run in the Olympic Ballroom.

Receptions and food

The Olympic Ballroom holds up to 220 guests. It has tall windows over the bay, fir beams and crystal chandeliers. The Alki Room holds up to 80 and has four bay windows that bring in natural light. Catering is handled in house, with custom menus built around seasonal ingredients. A catering menu is available from the hotel, and an experienced planning team helps with the details.

Staying

The hotel has 223 rooms and suites, and each room has a gas fireplace. Options include City View King rooms, over-water rooms and suites, specialty suites and accessible rooms, so guests can stay where the party is. Reservations can be made online or by phone through the hotel.

Getting there and the area

The hotel sits on the Seattle waterfront at Pier 67, a short distance from Pike Place Market, the aquarium and the downtown core. Seattle-Tacoma International Airport is reachable by light rail and car. Waterfront photos are easy to arrange without leaving the property.
