Love on a Winter’s Night | Rosehill Wedding Mukilteo
Winter is the perfect time for weddings, and this Rosehill Wedding in Mukilteo is no exception.
Kelsey and Dustin married at the beginning of December at Rosehill Community Center in Mukilteo. Their day was a whirlwind of friends and inside jokes (anyone have 8 minutes??), a hop or two down to the nearby brewery (also the location of their first date), mini pies, tacos, and dancing among the twinkle lights. This Rosehill wedding was more about the celebration of togetherness than having a wedding, and it was absolutely perfect for this pair. I’ve never met a less stressed out bride (or groom, for that matter!)
We’re so thankful to Jeremy of BlueBeatz Entertainment for sending this wedding our way (Kelsey is his fiance’s step-sister)! We had a ton of fun!
Now of course, we all want to hear the details of this Rosehill wedding, so from Kelsey herself:
We met through work. I worked for a catering company that leased a kitchen in his building. He stopped in each morning for coffee. We got to know each other, and over several months he began drinking more and more coffee. He finally asked me out and the rest is history.
Dustin made plans to go to Diamond Knot, where we shared our first date. We normally don’t plan to go there, so I thought something may be off. After dinner, we were walking to the car and he popped the question! There were a lot of tears, happy, happy tears!
Our venue is nearby the location of our first date, it has amazing views of the water, ferry and Whidbey Island.
Dustin and I made our guest book (Pallet Sign), and we are having wedding pies, which will be made by my mom, his mom, his aunt and sister (apple, chocolate pecan, berry and pumpkin).
I’m pretty relaxed about the whole thing, at the end of the day I get to marry my best friend while we are surrounded by all the people who love and support us.
In the summer we love to camp, enjoy hiking or fishing (he fishes, I hang out on the boat). We also love to explore on day trips, which usually ends up at a craft brewery somewhere.

We’re Kate (she/her) and Josh (he/him) —
married humans, emotional chaos wranglers, coffee worshippers, timeline nerds, Marvel fanatics, and occasional ugly criers at weddings.
(Okay, maybe more than occasional. Look, vows get us. Every damn time.)

Yes, that sobbing lady in green is me.
I didn't even have time to put makeup on ... Not that it would have mattered because I would have just cried it all off.
My whole face did me wrong. Who cries like that?!?
No matter what, just know you don't look like THIS when you're crying on the wedding day.
Also, that's my awesome kid on their wedding day. Don't they look amazing???
There is something magical and powerful about seeing yourself for the first time on your wedding day.
And yet, this moment is often overlooked. We make sure it happens.
SNOHOMISH WASHINGTON OPEN TO TRAVEL WITHIN THE UNITED STATES
How long have you been a Snohomish Wedding Photographer?
Kate has been photographing since 1997 and Josh started in 2011. We started photographing weddings together then.
Josh and Kate of GSquared Weddings have photographed over 630 weddings together across more than 15 years — specifically in the Seattle and Snohomish County area. That’s not a flex for its own sake. It means that when your timeline runs 20 minutes late, when the clouds roll in over your outdoor ceremony, or when your reception venue is lit exclusively by Edison bulbs and bad overhead lighting, we’ve been there. Hundreds of times. And we know exactly what to do.
As a husband and wife team, we also bring something no two-photographer strangers can replicate — we communicate without words, we read a room together, and we move through your day as a unit. A Snohomish wedding photographer with genuine field experience doesn’t just take better photos — they protect your entire day experience. That’s what 630 weddings actually buys you.
How do I know GSquared Weddings is the right Snohomish wedding photography team for us?
Honestly? You’ll know pretty fast. If you read through our work and our words and thought these people get it — trust that instinct.
We’re built for couples who want their day to feel like themselves, not a performance. Couples who want a team that genuinely shows up — not just with cameras, but as timeline wranglers, veil fixers, chaos calm-ers, and two people who will absolutely tear up at your first look. We’ve spent 15 years and 630 weddings earning the trust of couples across Seattle and Snohomish County, and our approach has never changed: protect your vision, protect your experience, and keep your messy, beautiful, real love story safe.
If you’re looking for heavily staged, ultra-polished, everybody-stand-still photography — we’re probably not your people, and we’ll tell you that honestly. But if you want someone to be there for all of it, exactly as it happens? That’s exactly what we do.
What is your photography style, and will my Snohomish wedding photos look natural or overly edited?
At GSquared Weddings, our photography style is rooted in one core belief: real is always better than perfect. We shoot in a documentary-editorial style — meaning we’re capturing what’s actually happening, not directing a magazine spread. Candid tears, windblown hair, belly laughs mid-vow, the flower girl losing it in the corner — that’s what we’re after.
Our editing is clean, timeless, and true to life. We don’t chase trendy presets or heavy filters that will feel dated in five years. What you see in our galleries is what actually happened that day — the light, the color, the emotion — preserved honestly. Your Snohomish wedding photos will look like you, not like a template.
