A Deliciously Modern Lewis and Clark Wedding

Lewis & Clark College in Portland became the site of a dream wedding for this modern couple, who had already overcome the obstacles of long distance love. The bride put her heart and soul into creating her day, utilizing the help of various vendors to make sure every detail was perfect. It was a stunning event that fully captured their unique style!

This bride had all the details for her Lewis and Clark Wedding. Her gown was a mix of modern elegance - lace and silk with a cathedral veil. Adding a unique touch, blue thread embroidery on the train spelled out “G”. To complete the look, she carried a bouquet of bold hues that was in perfect harmony with the timeless and woodsy feel of the wedding venue.


On a sunny summer day, Lewis and Clark College served as the backdrop for the wedding of a Portland native groom. He completed his look with his groomsmen at his childhood home before the ceremony. Lewis and Clark College was full of lush gardens and architectural designs that complemented the bold color palette of the bride and groom. The groom's sleek look added an extra layer of softness to the picturesque scene.


Before they said ‘I do’ at the Lewis and Clark Wedding, the couple had a beautiful first look parallel to the reflection pool. The scene was illuminated by natural light shining through the trees, providing a picture-perfect setting of romance in the woods. Amidst all of the picturesque locations onsite, this particular spot left quite an impression on the couple and their guests!

Lewis and Clark wedding was anything but ordinary, with the bride and groom choosing to have their guests face the majestic Mount Hood instead of the classic Manor House. The juxtaposition of Oregon's wild beauty and the stately grounds of Lewis and Clark created a breathtaking effect that left all attendees enchanted by the special moment.

 

Tiffany of Foraged Floral was the definition of artistry when it came to the gorgeous, lush flowers of this Lewis and Clark wedding. Deep hues and a wonderfully fragrant atmosphere were set against Mt. Hood's majestic backdrop - truly a dream for any Oregon local.

The reception was the perfect blend of an upscaled garden party and the wildness of their surroundings. The setting of their formal reception embraced the outdoors, with a classic yet whimsical garden party vibe. Mossy wreaths and wildflowers accentuated the scene, sparking romance and whimsy among the guests. As sunset descended, a beauty like no other was revealed on Mt. Hood as it glowed golden against the sky. Wine flowed freely and joy radiated throughout the reception until nightfall, making it one of the most memorable weddings imaginable.
