backyard portland lavender farm wedding

Sometimes, you're lucky enough to grow up on a beautiful property right outside of town. And down the road, you meet your someone and that someone agrees with you that the best spot to get married is that backyard where you grew up. And ALSO!!!! Lavender fields!!!

Coordinated by the lovely Tera from Abbott Coordination. Food truck...food by Koi Fusion and music by the ever-present and delightful John Ross Music.

If you love backyard weddings, here is the groom's sister's wedding, also held in this beautiful property. Or here's a backyard in Vancouver. Or a backyard in Sauvie Island.

I love Sauvie Island, and overjoyed that these two and their lil’ babe invited me to photograph their celebration after rescheduling through COVID. It was laid back, cozy, and such an authentic loving experience for family and friends.

When it comes to hosting a wedding in your parents' backyard, less is definitely more. Get all your favorite people together, turn the fall colors up to eleven, don a fantastic blue dress, keep your favorite pup around and joyfully roll with it all. Oh, and it's not a bad idea to make sure the sunlight dapples through the trees.
