REAL WEDDING: New Year’s Eve

We’re about to ring in another new year. Can you believe 2018 is just a few days away? There are so many different ways to celebrate the strike of midnight. Usually for me, it’s a low-key evening with family and friends, and on occasion we gather at a larger house party. One year, in particular, was more special. We gathered at a little chapel in the outskirts of Portland to watch my sister get married. She had always loved the idea of ringing in the year in style, and she did just that. With close family and friends and a bit of frost in the air, everyone dazzled in their best dress as two families came together. It was simple and elegant and just plain fun.

That’s why we’re sharing this awesome wedding we saw from The Knot featuring a couple who wed in Raleigh, North Carolina on New Year’s Eve. I think you’ll see why it caught our eye.

REAL WEDDING: Forest Elopement

August 3, 2017 by Molly 1 Comment

 

Western Washington forests usually have dense trees that seem to climb forever, ferns and brush nestled on the pine-needle forest floor, and slivers of sunlight beaming through the branches. It’s peacefulness at its best.

Most of the time it’s just you and the forest, which makes it that much more serene.

We discovered a newly wedded couple who wanted just that. Their elopement to the Olympic National Forest was recently featured on Junebug Weddings.

Anyone who has visited that particular area knows that its terrain is very similar to our neck of the woods here in the Columbia River Gorge.

So, naturally we took a strong liking to their romantic day. We think you may like it too:

Utah-based photographer, Kandice Breinholt, who caught all of these images on camera, has a beautiful portfolio. Be sure to follow her work on Instagram @kandice.breinholt.

Tell us, would you elope in the forest?

Americana Wedding

July 11, 2017 by Molly 3 Comments

The fourth of July may have come and gone, but I’m still hearing fireworks nearby. It got me thinkin’… why shouldn’t we celebrate every day? We have so much to be grateful for here on this land we call home.

I guess this prolonged celebrating keeps me swooning over all things red, white and blue – and, a classic Americana wedding is just the ticket.

It’s a theme that can really suit any American couple. May it be casual or elegant, down home or glamorous, summer or any time of year, really. Whatever route you take, it’s pure bliss.

REAL WEDDING: Classic Summer

June 22, 2017 by Molly 1 Comment

We are so lucky to be in a business that inspires us each and every day. Not only do we witness the beauty in all of the couples who exchange their vows at Wind Mountain Ranch, but we follow some pretty spectacular weddings around the country, too!

Borrowed & Blue www.borrowedandblue.com, one of our favorite wedding planning sites, featured a classic summer wedding taking place in the Santa Monica Mountains at Calamigos Ranch. The natural setting paired with lace and diamonds made Virpi & Monika’s wedding classic and gorgeous. There are many more photos to view on Borrowed & Blue, but here are the moments that left us oohing and aweing:
