Wedding Inspo - Groom Style, 4th Edition

Everyone who knows us already knows that we adore featuring our incredibly gorgeous brides all over the blog, but what about the grooms? Every year, we dedicate a special blog to all of the amazing dudes we get to meet on wedding and elopement days and, of course, take the opportunity feature their killer style.

With all of the changes to weddings in 2020, its no surprise that so many of our grooms opted for unique style choices. Whether it was a pastel blue suit, a simple yet breezy dress shirt paired with slacks, a sleek camel coat with boots, or even a classic black tux, all of the stellar outfit choices these handsome fellas made did not disappoint one bit.

We adore getting to see grooms express their personalities on wedding days, even if its through a simple attire choice, we’re beyond hyped to see what 2021 grooms have in store for us!

On the Oregon Coast, Magical Elopements on Cannon Beach

Once in awhile we get to journey to some of the most magical places in the universe and our trip to the Oregon Coast was beyond our wildest dreams. We got to hang with not one, but two insanely beautiful couples and lets just say it was next-freaking-level.

For these two styled elopements, we traveled to Cannon Beach, aka heaven, for an absolutely dazzling day created by our sweet friend Taylor of Traveling Weddings with Taylor. That misty coastline made for easily one of the most sublime backdrops we’ve ever beheld. Our couples, TJ + Maegan and Anthony + Bailey, were so captivating, we’re pretty sure every single photo of them was perfection. On top of having these outstandingly gorgeous lovers, dress queen Hannah Tikkanen created two immaculate gowns that we’re still 1000% smitten with and we’ll probably never get over them. From running on the beach, to dancing in the ocean, to sharing kisses under the Pacific Northwest sky, all of the love we witnessed was truly unforgettable.

And if all of that astonishing beauty wasn’t enough, the most remarkable team of Oregon vendors brought some impeccable elopement dreams to life. From Noble Florals’ heavenly bouquets to Sweet Sentimentality’s delicate invitation suite to Party Place Portland’s exquisite table design, every inch of this day was astonishing.

Cannon Beach, you have our hearts and we’re beyond obsessed with you. We can’t wait to be back at this ethereal place soon, but until then, we’ll be over here daydreaming about this unreal day.
