Nicole and Matt’s wedding at Bridal Veil Lakes was pure magic – a whimsical blend of garden party elegance, Columbia Gorge beauty, and unapologetic goofiness that could only belong to them. Surrounded by towering evergreens and shimmering water, the day was bursting with bright, joyful colors and personal touches at every turn.

Nicole stunned in two impeccable dresses, while Matt made the most epic entrance – canoeing right up to the ceremony site like it was the most natural thing in the world. These two are lovable nerds in their own realms, and it showed in the way they laughed through the entire day, in their humor, and in the little Easter eggs woven into their celebration. Penny, their dog, ruled the day like the star she is, and guests captured chaotic, golden moments on the Dad Cam that are absolutely legendary. The vows were deep and heart-melting, the speeches were equal parts touching and hilarious, the dance floor was absolutely unhinged. Add in classy cocktails, frisbee golf, and a kaleidoscope of florals, and you’ve got a wedding that was as one-of-a-kind as the couple themselves.

Cheers to Nicole & Matt and their one-of-a-kind love!!!
