So glad to see it finally come to pass! On a more common note, from the sounds of it, it looks like after this beautiful day we'll all need to get back to our everyday issues such as carpooling, walking, biking, and public transit. With that in mind, what bus line(s) serve this neighborhood? Such a beautiful day for civil rights in our state and our community! So glad to see it finally come to pass!

I, too, rejoice that LGBT couples can now marry in our wonderful state. But you shouldn't apologize for bringing up the parking problem because your observation is totally valid. Parking here can be a nightmare when the Sanctuary does ANY kind of wedding. This one is going to bring even more people to our already crowded streets. Where ARE they all going to park?

Let me make this clear. I have no objection to the weddings...I think this is a wonderful thing, that LGBT couples can finally come together in marriage. It's far past time this should be happening.

I wanna go. I live around Admiral and 1 day of people celebrating equal rights and love is way more important than the parking issue so I agree with keden. Plus the high school is right there :) This is awesome! I wanna go.

Using a portion thereof could cause confusion with other organization with similar names. This organization in Seattle, WA. is the Universal Life Church Monastery Storehouse. There is Universal Life Church Monastery in Tucson, AZ. a Universal Life Church in Modesto, CA. and than of course the Universal Life Church World Headquarters in Florida. We certainly do not want to infringe upon George Freeman and the ULC Monastery Storehouse on their day of celebration regarding this historic event in Washington State of the legalization of same sex marriage. It is something George Freeman has fought for, for so many years and we are thrilled for the LGBT community.

But past events there have created a parking nightmare for the rest of the neighborhood. Once, the bridal party hired a huge bus to bring the guests in, and it blocked traffic at 42nd and Lander.And there have been limos illegally parked blocking fire hydrants. This is a busy street anyway because of Safeway, and now we have the new apartments, Element 42, and some of the renters there park on the street instead of paying for parking in the building. I'm guessing that this will be very busy. TR, that’s true. But past events there have created a parking nightmare for the rest of the neighborhood.

Certainly this won't be the first event of that size - though the "individual weddings" aspect has me thinking this is a daylong, people coming and going event - so where do they park NOW?
