You guessed it, another Covid wedding! Jessica and Jose were one of the sweetest couples to work with, an absolute dream. Who doesn’t want to hear “we trust you, do what you want!”?! And the fact that Jessica opted to don snakeskin strappy heels for her big day?! Amazing. They got married on a crisp fall day with a couple of their favorite people and I just love to see the pure joy in their eyes. Congrats to you, love birds!

In true PNW fashion, a cute little elopement at the gorgeous Woodland House. Tucked in the forest, a sweet little table scape designed by the amazing team of Wild Heart Events for your closest people. My favorite part is the way this color palette pops among all the green and those adorable rainbow elements!

Okay, this may just be one of my favorite weddings as of yet! This little last minute elopement came together in a matter of weeks. With Covid yet again putting a damper in their plans Rebecca and Max opted not to reschedule their wedding again, but to have a intimate ceremony at the gorge followed by a reception at their families property. We scraped our initial plans and started fresh. Rebeccas mom sewed her wedding dress (!!!), and I think anyone can see she looked absolutely stunning. We kept it simple with linen tablecloths, minimal place settings and a mixture of centerpieces and bud vases. I am forever thankful for their trust in me to help them have a wedding against all the odds Covid through their way. Wishing you many years of pure joy, Rebecca and Max!

This was the perfect day for a fall wedding. The colors in the leaves were changing to rich reds and golds, the sun was still shining and provided the perfect dreamy lighting for Baily and Genyas ceremony. Bailys vision was something moody and fall inspired with lots of rich purples, burgundys and mauves complimented with other fall colors, which I incorporated with foraged fall foliage. Otherwise, she was super trusting of me and Cindy at Peachy Keen Coordination to make her vision come to life which made things all the more fun! To bring in more masculine details, Cindy used bluish grey table linens, paired with black chairs and I used blooms that were nearly black as pops and it turned out so cool and moody but not too dark! Fall weddings might be my new favorite!

I absolutely adored working with Annie! She called me only a little over a month before her wedding day to dream up the dreamist intimate wedding on the Oregon Coast. She had family fly out from all over the country to celebrate all weekend long! She designed the wedding around Brians suit which was a blue and rust plaid tweed and the surroundings of the Oregon Coast. I absolutely loved that. Paired with textured soft florals (to mimic the sandy tones and flowy textured grasses of the beach) were blue linens, rust tied napkins and taper candles in fun different candle holders to tie all the colors from the suit and the Oregon coast. Definitely a wedding for the books.

Steph and Kyle wanted their intimate wedding to feel cozy and modern but also vibrant, loud and fun. I think we struck the perfect balance between the venue and all the styling details! Stephanie hand dyed all of the napkins herself so each one was totally unique. They used Himalayan Salt Blocks as table numbers and to finish off the tablescape we had wild and colorful centerpieces in copper vessels and little ikebana arrangements in between to make room for the delicious family style dinner. Not to mention all the other details like the hand lettered acrylic signs! You entered the venue greeted with a gorgeous welcome sign and florals climbing up the stairs and opened the doors to a gigantic arrangement I decided to name Berta. Lastly, my favorite detail was the A-Symmetrical copper arbor bursting with color and dripping with Kyles request of amaranth. I will always cherish this wedding and all of the wonderful people I got to work with to bring the vision to life.

What can I say, its a YELLOW wedding! My dream has always been to create a wedding full of yellow and it finally came true this summer. Not featured (yet) is the lounge area created with vintage yellow furniture. This wedding was amazing, light and airy and full of fun. I loved being a part of their journey from the proposal (think rainy PNW day in the forest with a little cozy oasis hidden under the trees with the brides favorite things and a yellow floral installation!) to their wedding day. Cheers to you both, Gloria + Brendan!

Where do I begin with this gorgeous elopement?! Mallory and Andrew decided to elope at Mount St. Helens and it couldn’t have been more perfect of a place with the mountain behind them and the wildflowers (that somehow perfectly match their outfits?!) surrounding them. They started the day at Pips Donuts and rode bikes around the city, they stopped by my studio to grab their flowers and chat and they were on their way, and that’s one of the many reasons I love elopements. They can be whatever you want! Not only that, but you can WEAR whatever you want! Mallory wanted something different and went with this gorgeous electric blue gown that complimented her personality perfectly, and Andrew did the same in a super cool color blocked tie and red suit! I wanted their flowers to compliment their design choices and be as cool and wacky as their elopement was (did you have a chance to see her sparkly socks?) so I went with minimal blooms, and focused on the intention of each bloom instead. I also wanted to keep the flowers native to PNW since that’s where they were eloping. So, we ended up with a funky color blocked bouquet with smoke bush, echincea, hot cocoa garden roses, blue bachelor buttons and preserved mushroom (Its tucked in there!)! This elopement was an amazing challenge and inspiring overall to work on and I am beyond happy with the way everything came together!

A big thank you and shoutout to the following vendors who were also a huge part in this turning out so beautifully!
