Eva + David
Ava and David celebrated their wedding day at the breathtaking Griffin House in Hood River, Oregon—an intimate venue perched on a cliffside with sweeping views of the Columbia River Gorge. With golden sunlight filtering through the trees and a gentle breeze rolling off the water, the scene felt like something out of a dream.
The couple kept things effortlessly elegant and personal, blending classic style with fun, unexpected touches that made the day feel uniquely their own. Ava looked stunning in a sleek, modern gown with soft waves and a long, airy veil, holding a beautiful bouquet of white blooms. David kept it timeless in a sharp black suit paired with a champagne tie, but gave the look a playful edge by lacing up his Nike Jordans—a detail that showed up again in one of the sweetest pre-ceremony moments where the couple helped each other tie their shoes side by side.
Their beloved dog walked alongside them, adding the perfect personal touch to their portraits and joining in on the celebration with the wedding party. The bridal party itself brought style and ease, with the bridesmaid in a silky champagne-toned gown and the groomsmen in classic suspenders and bowties—a polished yet relaxed look that suited the golden hour glow.
One of the most touching parts of the day was a quiet, emotional moment of prayer and reflection shared with loved ones before the ceremony—a beautiful reminder of the heart behind the celebration.
As the night unfolded under the soft glow of string lights, guests were treated to heartfelt toasts, sweet treats, and a fun, high-energy groom and groomsmen dance performance that brought down the house. The couple even surprised their guests with a ramen cup noodle tower, a playful and unexpected late-night snack that had everyone smiling.
The evening ended on a high note with a sparkling ribbon wand send-off, where Ava and David made their grand exit surrounded by cheers, glowing lights, and so much love.
Every moment of this day felt authentic, joyful, and deeply personal—an unforgettable celebration of love overlooking one of the most beautiful landscapes Oregon has to offer.
