Wildflowers and Starlight — A Columbia Gorge Elopement $7,200

Wildflowers and Starlight — A Columbia Gorge Elopement

  • Rivers
  • Wild Flowers
  • Cliffs

The Columbia Gorge feels whimsical and untamed, where wildflowers are lush along the cliffs and reveal themselves only to those willing to wander. Your elopement day begins at Society Hotel in Bingen, WA, where you can enjoy coffee near the cozy fireplace or start the day slowly in your suite. You will exchange vows with the wildflowers and cliffside just a short car ride away, feeling both grounded and small in the best possible way.

After your ceremony, we continue to explore the lookout surrounded by wildflowers, and find a spot to set up and style your picnic. This is a moment to sit, share champagne, take your shoes off, and let the magnitude of the day settle in.

As the light softens, we wander the cliffs for sunset portraits overlooking the Gorge. Golden light cuts across the rocks while wind blows through your hair. When evening arrives and the crowds fade, we stay a little longer. We capture starlit portraits on the bluffs using soft lantern light and the open sky above. The day closes quietly, intentionally, and completely immersed in the wild beauty of the Gorge.
