Ashley & Steve – Sunriver Resort
An interview with Ashley & Steve Tell us about your thoughts leading up to the wedding, did you think about it growing up, did you plan it together?

Taylor & Jackson – Timberline
Born in two different countries on two different continents, 9,000 miles apart, from Rwanda to Oregon, Taylor and Jackson found each other. Finding a needle in a haystack IS possible.

Radhika & Shilpin – Portland Art Museum
Radhika and Shilpin’s wedding was pretty much a dream within a dream. Pinks that ignite your eyes and blues that make you drown in wonder. “Indians are the Italians of Asia and vice versa. Every man in both countries is a singer when he is happy, and every woman is a dancer when she walks to the shop at the corner. For them, food is the music inside the body and music is the food inside the heart. ‘Amore’ or ‘Pyar’ makes everyone a poet.” – Gregory David Roberts. After 20 hrs of non-stop...
