Yesterday I had a quick drop off at the coast. I spent 15 mins watching the green gray ocean full of white caps and waves and kite boarders and cloud shadows scuttling along. Any amount of time at the coast is refreshing and inspiring. And I seriously cannot wait to see photos of the two sweet souls who got married there yesterday! Their love and excitement made each piece I got to work on for them even that much better 💖 In the mean time, here is another day at another gorgeous spot along the Oregon Coast, with another windswept beach moment 🌬 . . . . . 📷 @dionnekrausphotography | #Oregonweddings #oregonbride #oregonflorist #portlandweddings #portlandbride #portlandflorist #theknot #pnwedding #wedventuremag #oarsandbeanies #loveauthentic #underthefloralspell #thatsdarling #dirtybootsandmessyhair #loveandwildhearts #indiewedding #junebugweddings #livethelittlethings #gypsybride #nwweddings #elopementcollective #pdxflorist #bramblefloral #oregoncoast #beachwedding #bohobride #wildandfree #fineartflowers #bridalbouquet
Portland is always surprising me with its unexpected weirdness. The natural weirdness - when it’s not even trying! Like what a small world the wedding community is. And how incredibly fun and caring and supportive it can be. 🌿 Yesterday I really got a huge reminder of how cool it is to be part of a community like that. Not only did I get to spend time with my mastermind group with @weddingprocoaching, but I also got meet a few wedding pros I’ve already worked with but didn’t actually know in person at the @artofweddingspdx meet up at @mirandapdx (also- if you haven’t been there yet, you should definitely go visit asap! That’s probably a whole other post, but it’s a new fave for sure!) There was so much encouragement, support, and excitement shared back and forth from so many people - and how amazing is that in an industry that’s often so competitive! It feels so good to get to know people in person, rather than just make guesses about their life and work based on social media. 🌿 I feel so privileged to get to run my business in a place like this. Big thanks to people like Lané, Beth, and Kim, who give so much of themselves to help other people succeed! 💚 . . . . . 📷 @viktoriyabogdanovaphotography | @vintagemeetsmodern | #Oregonweddings #oregonbride #oregonflorist #portlandweddings #portlandbride#portlandflorist #theknot #pnwedding #wedventuremag #createandcultivate #womenentrepreneurs #underthefloralspell #thatsdarling #womenencouragingwomen #loveandwildhearts #indiewedding #junebugweddings #livethelittlethings #gypsybride #nwweddings #elopementcollective #pdxflorist #bramblefloralbout #creativityfound #dowhatyoulove #boutonniere
Backyard wedding goals right here, friends 🤗 Personal, intimate, earthy, beautiful and not fussy. And it’s hard to beat a hand crafted arch with benches from @something_borrowed_pdx, too. I am so amazed at the thoughtfulness of the couples I get to work with 💕 and now I’m off to run a few errands and then start designing bouquets for this weekend’s wedding! What does your weekend look like? Work, play, or both? . . . . . #Oregonweddings #oregonbride #oregonflorist #portlandweddings #portlandbride #portlandflorist #flowerarch #pnwedding #wedventuremag #weddingarch #loveauthentic #underthefloralspell #darlingweekend #weddingceremony #loveandwildhearts #indiewedding #junebugweddings #livethelittlethings #gypsybride #nwweddings #elopementcollective #pdxflorist #bramblefloral #organicwedding #bohobride #backyardwedding #stayingido #beating50percent
It’s a good thing I work with an ephemeral art, because I’m worlds most attached person: I have such a hard time letting go of things and I fall in love easily. Take this bouquet from last weekend, for example. I gave it to the bride, but I made sure to take pictures of it, and now I can’t stop looking at them - I’ve got loads of gorgeous photos to share with you, but I’m still not ready to move on from this bouquet! . . . . . 📷: @zoe_cope_creative | #gardenroses #peterkortroses #oregonflorist #portlandweddings #portlandbride #portlandflorist #weddinginspo #pnweddings #portlandnw #floralart #loveauthentic #liveunscripted #thatsdarling #bramblefloral #thehappynow #floralinspiration #wildandfree #dsfloral #blooooms #abmlifeisbeautiful #stylingtheseasons #womenentrepreneurs #lovewhatyoudo #feelfreefeed #rsblooms #flashesofdelight #livecolorfully #freshairandfreedom #slowflowers #aquietstyle
When the bouquet delivery involves tears, you know it’s a good day 😭😍 And speaking of good... Where to start? Today was just a dream! ✨Not that there weren’t the little moments of stress, but it was just so... good! Good team, good style, good vendors, good colors, good weather, and above all, such a good couple! How did I get so lucky? Big love and best wishes to you, Jules and Will! . . . . . 📷 @zoe_cope_creative | @peterkortroses | #Oregonweddings #oregonbride #oregonflorist #portlandweddings #portlandbride #portlandflorist #bridalbouquet #pnwedding #bramblebouquet #beating50percent #loveauthentic #underthefloralspell #darlingweekend #stayingido #loveandwildhearts #indiewedding #handtiedbouquet #livethelittlethings #gypsybride #nwweddings #peterkortroses #pdxflorist #bramblefloral #fineartflowers #weddingdayready #rsblooms #gardenwedding #backyardwedding
Okay, who here prefers a more candid photography style? I love seeing photos that feel real and in the moment. But I also don't feel like that means you can't have stunning portraits and anything but smiley pics. Weddings are wonderful - and wonderfully overwhelming! Sometimes you do just need a moment. . As far as sharing goes, I prefer to share the fun, smiling photos, and trust me, I will, but I love that this serious moment is also a candid, peaceful moment. Yeah your wedding should make your face hurt from smiling, but only from joy - not from forced photo smiling! If you need a moment while you are getting situated, or reflecting and being in the moment, don't worry about smiling. Just breathe and be and enjoy - whatever that looks like for you! . I couldn't wait till I got home from vacation to share a photo from this gorgeous and super fun inspiration shoot that was just featured last week on @dancingwithher - because it's seriously THE BEST. I'll share more when I get home, but let me just say we titled it "cats and popsicles". Not only that, but it's full of gorgeous color, texture, light, and a super rad couple. Just the best!! Full of all the happy, fun, real moments that happen when you're with the one you love (whether it's a real wedding, or a photo shoot) . . . . .
