Au Naturale in Oregon: Nature Made Elegant for This Meant-To-Be Couple
Sunriver Resort was the amazing venue for Elle and Drew's romantic and elegant wedding, the gorgeous July day made the Deschutes river shine and their smiles shine even brighter. Hair and make up was done by the amazingly talented Cassidy Elise for Elle and her bridesmaids before they put on their stylish silk dresses. Victoria Carlson Photography was able to document each moment with a pristine vision as they took their first look under the pine trees and saw their joy in becoming husband and wife. It was the perfect day for Mike Hiatt Media to capture a full video of their wedding inside and out, capturing the beauty of the Sunriver area and the grandiose Great Hall. Make sure to check out all of their incredible day in the full gallery here - and scroll on to read all the details!
To start off the celebration, guests were greeted by an ombre blush balloon installation by The Indigo Bride. From there, the guests were invited to the marvelous Mt. Bachelor lawn where the ground floral installations and arbor full of fresh blooms blew everyone’s mind!
The Ashlings serenaded the couple's bridal party and guests as Elle glided down the aisle to meet her love. They were married by the spectacular Wendy Duncan Ministries. After the ceremony, guests were invited to an hour of margaritas and delectable charcuterie from Sunriver Resort’s talented culinary team on the patio.
Fleurs Versailles completely transformed the Great Hall into a monumental display of roses from each table centerpiece to a luscious head table garland to the incredible chandelier greenery. Curated Events tied their abundant rose centerpieces together with an array of candles and lanterns, completing their romantic and elegant design. Heirlooms And Co. helped create outstanding signage for the reception and intimate lounge areas for their guests. The glass frosted chargers and textured linens by BBJ Linen topped off the tablescape.
Crumb Cakery provided a show stopping 4 tiered gold flaked cake along with an array of mini sweet treats for their guests to enjoy while they danced into the night with the Blue Wave Band. Guests were able to bring a keepsake photo strip home from Dashoots Photobooth, which was available later in the evening so guests could snap a picture while enjoying Sunriver’s late night snacks - yum! It was the perfect ending to an amazing day of celebrating Elle and Drew’s newly married life together.
