Adrian and Emily’s Griffin House Wedding Hood River, Oregon was a perfect blend of natural beauty and intimate emotion. Perched on a cliff with breathtaking views of the river, the 120-year-old venue, bathed in soft light, created a warm, timeless atmosphere. The surroundings quietly echoed the strength, depth, and joy making each moment feel deeply meaningful. The shifting light throughout the day seemed to harmonize with the love and excitement felt by everyone—filled with laughter and tears, the best kind of emotion.
Their wedding planner, Jamie Ta Creative, was the magic behind the scenes, bringing confidence, kindness, and impeccable communication to every detail. Together with the talented and thoughtful team at the Griffin House each element was thoughtfully curated, adding a personal touch that made the space unique. The natural beauty and luxurious vibe of The Griffin House reflected Adrian and Emily’s style and journey perfectly.
The day unfolded smoothly, from the ceremony to the reception, with a flow that felt unhurried and organic. The venue’s layout is our favorite; its balance of open space and intimate nooks for connections, allowed guests to seamlessly move through each phase of the day, all while taking in some of the best views imaginable.
For their Griffin House Wedding Hood River, we brought our full A-team. Tree lead our team with the awesome help of Devon and Adam of Devon K Photo creatively photographing high, low, far, and wide! And our creative lighting assistant (Alex Smith & Adam at times) illuminated every fleeting moment. Adrian and Emily filled us with joy through their KIND WORDS, leaving us in awe of their love and connection.
Following their wedding we spent an entire evening with Adrian and Emily in San Francisco sharing their wedding premiere in person. The depth and comical joy shared between these two is JUST unbelievably powerful! The heart of their relationship(s) is rooted in some of the best communication we’ve ever experienced. They even wrote custom detailed paragraphs to every guest at their wedding on the most beautiful cards (see detail photos below). They take the time, and it hits home so powerful and beautiful!
