Amber and Christina have been together for 14 1/2 years in August met in a Seattle courtroom in the King County Court House and with a judge they know and two of their best friends present as witness’ were married in a simple ceremony. Washington is one of the first states in the country where this could legally happen and all of us there that day are happy to live here. The following day they had a reception with a larger number of their friends and family in the blooming garden of their Ballard home.
