There’s nothing quite as magical as an early-fall wedding in the Pacific Northwest. I spent my Labor Day weekend with Cherie and Dylan at an iconic Washington venue, the Cape Horn Estate. Located in Stevenson, Washington, this wedding venue offers more than just scenic views making it a top choice for the Pacific Northwest.
I am absolutely in LOVE with how their Columbia Gorge wedding turned out. It was a beautiful day full of sweet moments and natural beauty. Cherie and Dylan were surrounded by their closest friends and family as they shared their vows, popped the champagne, and celebrated all night. I felt so lucky to be spending our Labor Day weekend with these two and their loved ones at such a beautiful place.
The Pacific Northwest provides a beautiful setting for your wedding, and in the fall it is at its peak. As one of the most popular times for weddings out west, the fall season inspires the style and design for many weddings. In a space like Cape Horn Estate, it’s easy to lean into the fall theme with the lush greenery, scenic views, and magic sunsets. As a photographer, I see the beauty everywhere and do my best to encourage my couples to take a moment and soak in each detail. It’s a surreal moment when you pause and breathe in the fresh air as you admire your wedding day. This moment is once in a lifetime, take it in.

A fall-themed wedding
If I had to determine my favorite time of year for a Columbia Gorge wedding I’d have to say it’s the fall. Specifically, September. Early fall is an extremely popular time to get married in the Pacific Northwest. September is usually the month right before the rainy season and has a warm feel to its evenings as the golden light reflects off of the mountains. Because many people in the PNW have a passion for the outdoors we have a ton of outdoor Washington venues that set the perfect scene for a wedding.
Cherie and Dylan had the perfect location for their fall-themed wedding in Washington. I adore how they captured the essence of early fall perfectly and leaned into everything that makes a Columbia Gorge wedding so special. To dress up their Pacific Northwest venue, Cherie and Dylan incorporated half-dried hydrangeas, dark greenery, and neutral-colored fresh flowers. With shades of nude, terracotta, and burnt orange, Cherie and Dylan achieved the ideal Autumn theme design. All the flowers and decor they brought in helped elevate the natural beauty of this Washington venue and it was clear they had thought through every last detail. As the night crept in the twinkle lights lit up the dinner reception offering an organic touch and moodiness in true PNW style.

I needed to post you this little note just to thank you very much over again for those exceptional techniques you’ve featured on this site. This has been simply particularly open-handed with you to deliver openly exactly what a number of people would’ve distributed for an e book in making some dough on their own, principally considering that you could have done it if you considered necessary. Those ideas also acted to become great way to know that some people have similar zeal just like mine to know the truth somewhat more with reference to this problem. I think there are some more pleasant periods ahead for individuals that looked over your site.
The point of view of your article has taught me a lot, and I already know how to improve the paper on gate.oi, thank you. https://www.gate.io/pt-br/signup/XwNAU

I am really loving the theme/design of your blog. Do you ever run into any browser compatibility issues? A few of my blog readers have complained about my website not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Firefox. Do you have any advice to help fix this issue?
Nice read, I just passed this onto a friend who was doing some research on that. And he actually bought me lunch because I found it for him smile Therefore let me rephrase that: Thanks for lunch!
