Washington Wedding Inspiration (for the BOHO hikers at heart)

Elsa and Matt decided to elope with only their parents, and the day was as beautiful as it could be (as you will see in these pics).

Their day was pretty much what a typical elopement day looks like. They started the day getting ready in separate rooms, anxiously waiting for me to arrive so they could finally see each other and do their first look. Once I got there and got a few getting ready/detail pics, we went ahead and got Matt all set up outside to see Elsa all done up looking STUNNING in her wedding dress. After we all collectively cried during the first look, we jumped in the car to their ceremony spot where they would say their vows and we would conclude the day with a first dance in the mountains and some cake cutting.

"How do you live, knowing you're dying?"//Gabby and Colten//Vow Renewal

“I vow to love you even when I’m gone. To find you again and let you know I’m there. You will never have to be alone. You can find me in the waves that dance along the shore, and the wind that moves you to explore. You can find my love in the stillness between the trees, and the sounds of laughter you share with our friends and family. I will be alive in the beauty of the nature that surrounds you. All you have to do is close your eyes and reach out to your heart, and I’ll be there, and you’ll feel me. I will never stop loving you babe, I wouldn’t even know how. My love isn’t tied to a thing that ends, not my body, not my mind, not even my life. I will remain your Opo forever and ever.” -Coltens vow to Gabby.

Washington State is one of the best places to get married, and here's why!

When people are thinking about where to get married, I feel as if Washington State isn’t thought about…even though it’s truly one of the prettiest places I have ever been.

Let’s just mark off the obvious which is the SCENERY!!! From the beautiful ocean, to the beautiful mountains, to the mossy forests. Washington doesn’t just have one choice of scenery like a lot of states do (some have mountains, some have the ocean, some have the forrest), it has everything you would ever want for your perfect wedding day.

Emily & Nick//A love so beautiful that even rain on a wedding day can't ruin

Imagine this, it won’t stop raining on your wedding day. Like, pouring rain. Not just your gentle little drizzle. You think, every couples nightmare on their wedding day, right? Not Emily and Nicks.

We spent a good hour waiting the rain out, and when we all realized it wasn’t going to stop…Emily said “let’s just do it!” and Nick said “whatever Emily wants to do”. 😭 We all got absolutely soaked by the end of the elopement, but ironically….these are some of my favorite pictures I’ve ever taken. The love that these two have for each other can be felt even with the rain soaking them. What easily could’ve ruined a day, these two ran with it and made it even better. I’ve never seen anything quite like it. 💕
