An Intimate & Emotional Wedding at 525 in Buckley, WA

September 6th was a day I won’t forget—a day full of tears, laughter, and an unforgettable guest of honor: Cosmo, the couple’s beloved French bulldog.

Set against the stunning natural backdrop of 525 in Buckley, this emotional and intimate Washington wedding was the perfect blend of elegance, nature, and personality.

As a wedding photographer, I’ve witnessed many touching moments—but this day was next level.

The Venue: 525 in Buckley, Washington

If you’re looking for a Pacific Northwest wedding venue that combines rustic charm with natural beauty, 525 in Buckley is a dream come true. Tucked in the heart of Pierce County, it offers mountain views, tall evergreens, and a peaceful, private setting that feels worlds away from the everyday.

From golden hour light pouring through the trees to the cozy reception setup, this venue provided the perfect backdrop for every single photo.

Cosmo the French Bulldog Steals the Show 🐾

One of the most personal touches of the day? Cosmo, the couple’s French bulldog, had his own role in the ceremony. Dressed in a custom tuxedo harness, he proudly walked down the aisle and stayed close to his humans all day long.

Including pets in your wedding adds a unique and emotional layer to the story, and Cosmo was no exception.
