Welcome to Kasha & Kris’s fairytale inspired wedding!

Because I’m always so behind on posting, this is actually a 2019 wedding, so pre-pandemic (in case anyone wants to try and make any assumptions). Anyway, these lovebirds got married at the coolest little venue in Creswell, Oregon.

Cloverdale Chapel is over 115 years old and it is full of all the charm you’d expect from a building this age. With a passion for literature, the couple had a really adorable book theme for their big day. From the aisle runner and flowers made of book pages, to the ring box, to the books on the reception tables, no detail was missed. The same is true for Cloverdale Chapel…the owners have elegant and charming details everywhere (in the church, in the yard, on the trail to the reception, etc).

Kasha got ready on site, in the little back room of the church, which doubles as a kitchen. Her mother and sisters were there to help her get ready, which was really sweet. Once Kasha was ready, she met Kris out in the churchyard for their first look, but only after the flowers girls got their first look and melted my heart.

I’ll tell you what…this groom ADORES his bride! From the moment he saw her during their first look, he could not take his eyes off of her. I kept catching him just staring at her with these big googly-lovebird-eyes. It was super sweet, to say the least.

The ceremony was held inside the Chapel. The bridesmaids wore pink and blue dresses, while the groom and groomsmen donned light gray suits. Everyone, of course, rocked flowers by Morning Glories Floral, who also made the flower arrangement at the end of the aisle runner.

After the nuptials, everyone made their way to the reception, which was held in what I like to call “the hidden garden.” You can’t see it from the parking lot and you must take a (short) little walk on a trail through a wooded area to get there. Once you’re at the end of the trail, it opens up into a field type area where you can set up tables, a dance floor, etc. After some toasts, dancing, and food, we concluded the evening with some portraits.
