Oregon Backyard Barn Wedding // Nicole + Tanner

Let me just start off by saying this was one of the sweetest intimate weddings of all time. Nicole + Tanner planned their backyard barn wedding all themselves and not to mention they planned it all living out of state. Luckily everything came together perfectly - a family friend let them host the wedding on their property and it was the perfect mix of bohemian with rich, rust tones, tons of flowers and antique details. With an outdoor ceremony and the reception set up under twinkle lights next to the red barn it ended up being one of the best days evvvverrr. 

The wedding day started off with Nicole getting ready with her bff’s, popping some champagne and sipping on mimosas while getting their hair and makeup done. They all looked stunning in their Lulu’s coral/rust colored bridesmaids dresses

Not to mention Nicole looked drop dead gorgeous in her off-the-shoulder dress with pretty lace and floral appliqués.

The Elora Dress from LUV Bridal is the ultimate romantic + whimsical bridal dress. Together with the sparkly pins in her long flowy hair she looked like an absolute dream.

Tanner and his friends got ready and they all totally rocked their black on black suits. They were such a fun bunch to photograph plus they were totally hyping him up the whole entire time. I mean thats what friends are for amirite?

Nicole and Tanner opted not to do a first look before the ceremony which just made the anticipation even more exciting. The ceremony setup was so beautiful, there were unique bohemian carpets laid out all down the aisle, wooden farm benches for the guests, and the arch was adorned with stunning warm toned florals put together by Songbird Floristry. Can we take a sec to appreciate all the pretty florals + details all throughout this wedding?! I definitely felt the magic in the air. 


With their closest friends + family that traveled to witness their wedding from all over the country, Nicole + Tanner saw each other for the first time as she walked down the aisle.


They read each other their personal vows and it was so moving + emotional. There were definitely lots of laughs and lots of happy tears. Following the ceremony we took portraits by the barn and garden just as the sun started peaking out. They were both just beaming with joy, seriously how cute are they?!

During the reception we listened to sweet heartfelt toasts from their friends + family and watched as Nicole + Tanner had their first dances. Let me just say everyone was crying. The rest of the evening consisted of jamming out to the music, more dancing, and even more laughter. It even started raining at one point but everyone was having too much fun to stop. They ended the night with a sparkler exit under the twinkle lights and then they drove away in the cutest white vintage car.

It was the perfect way to end such a magical day, and I’m so honored that I got to capture those unforgettable moments for the sweetest couple ever :)
