Branden + Meryl | Mt. Hood National Forest Elopement

Like so many other couples, Branden and Meryl originally planned to have a larger wedding. Of course after so many shifting State and Federal regulations thanks to the pandemic, they decided to follow their instincts and get married THEIR way.

B + M booked the most adorable Airbnb deep in the Mt. Hoot National Forest for a quiet weekend in January. They invited only their siblings and had the sweetest exchange of vows amongst the trees, next to the Sandy River. After that, we all spent the evening eating pizza and cake, playing cards games and drinking Branden’s homemade wedding beer. It was a perfect, quaint elopement and I couldn’t imagine them tying the knot any other way.
