Travel Information

For those traveling in, we've gathered 2 recommended options for accommodations below. However, there are many other hotels and Airbnb's in the area!

There will be shuttle services to and from the venue, so you won't need to worry about driving!

Snoqualmie Inn by Hotel America

If you want a bit of a fancier option (or are a huge Twin Peaks fan!), the Salish Lodge is a beautiful escape overlooking the Snoqualmie Falls. For this option, we do not have a room block or shuttle service available.

Lauren and Andrew met in 2017, at Claremont McKenna College. After being 'just friends' for a while, they started officially dating that summer, when Lauren was in California and Andrew was home in Washington - apparently, watching movies together online and sending each other on surprise adventures is more than 'just friends' territory. After months of talking every day, Lauren finally asked Andrew out, officially.They were in a long-distance relationship for the first six months, in separate home states over the summer and then finding every spare moment for Skype calls while Lauren was studying abroad in Japan. She didn't know at the time that Andrew was skipping too many classes, keeping insanely odd hours just to talk to her across time zones.After graduating, Andrew started working at Outpost Media in Burbank, while Lauren finished her last year of school. They rented a bedroom together in a house near campus, where Lauren lived for a while after graduation before starting work at Big Sunday. Eventually, they got their first apartment together in Burbank, a small studio space where the only door that closed was the bathroom. This is where they lived when 2020 hit, and Lauren and Andrew found out that they could weather any storm after surviving lockdown together - only going out for groceries, sitting at the same table while working from home, and coordinating unmuting themselves on Zoom calls.After a few more years of enjoying SoCal, Lauren and Andrew moved to Washington State in 2022, with new jobs and a new apartment. Here, they adopted their first pet together, Juniper, and a few years later, another cat named Buckeye came along. Now, they spend their days going to the movie theater, haunting local record stores, cooking together, and keeping up with friends and family.
