The serene woodland setting made it feel like a hidden oasis, ideal for couples dreaming of a Pacific Northwest wedding surrounded by nature.

From the very beginning, personal touches made the day uniquely theirs. At the reception, rustic wooden initials “J & J” were displayed, setting the tone for a wedding that felt both intimate and timeless. Details like these not only add personality but also give guests a glimpse into the couple’s story.
The First Look
Before the ceremony, Jamie and Justin shared a private first look surrounded by the enchanting forest paths of Maroni Meadows. With sunlight peeking through the leaves, Jamie gently tapped Justin on the shoulder. His face lit up with pure joy and awe the moment he turned around and saw his bride.
These moments are always filled with the most genuine emotions; laughter, happy tears, and pure excitement. For Jamie and Justin, their first look was not just about seeing each other in wedding attire, it was a chance to slow down, breathe, and savor the magic of the day before stepping into the ceremony together.
Portraits
After their first look, Jamie and Justin explored the stunning grounds of Maroni Meadows for their portraits. With tall trees, winding garden paths, and peaceful water features, the venue offered endless natural backdrops. Even in the midday light, the forest canopy created soft, flattering shade that made their portraits glow with warmth and intimacy.
These portraits captured not only the beauty of the venue but also the joy and connection between Jamie and Justin. Every smile, every laugh, and every embrace was a reminder of how much love filled their day.

These photos are a great reminder of how important it is to include time for group portraits on your wedding day. Not only do they create lasting memories with the people who mean the most to you, but they also add a layer of fun and celebration to the day that balances beautifully with the more intimate couple portraits.
The Ceremony
The ceremony took place under a beautiful wooden arbor draped with cascading white florals. The sunlight filtered through the leaves, creating a soft, romantic glow.

The groom waited eagerly as Jamie made her way down. It was a touching moment watching the couple exchange vows surrounded by their closest family and friends. When Jamie and Justin sealed their promises with a kiss, the entire forest seemed to celebrate with them—the applause echoing through the trees.
Joyful Exits and Candid Moments
Following the ceremony, Jamie and Justin walked hand-in-hand down the aisle, beaming with excitement as guests cheered them on. These just-married moments always carry so much joy and energy, and theirs was no exception.
A favorite part of the day was seeing candid, emotional moments between family members—parents holding each other close, friends laughing, children twirling in their flower girl dresses. These fleeting interactions are what make wedding days feel so alive.
