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.

ALP Team Picks - Bre's Fave Weddings

Last, but certainly not least, is our girl Bre and her favorite weddings! Known for her stunning work with our team as one of the best second shooters on the planet (and the boss babe of her own newborn photography business), she stepped it up and beautifully lead shot five of our weddings in addition to a bunch of our engagement sessions (including the most amazing Central Park session in NYC)! She’ll be back this season as both a lead and a second photog, and she shared her favorite weddings from 2019. We can’t wait to see how she captures some of our lovers in 2020 and allll we can say is #gobrego

Emilee and Ben:
I loved the style that Emilee had for her wedding. The slick hair back with the bold red lip is something you don’t see often and she pulled it off so well. The groom is a golfer and they got married on the golf course which was a great personal touch. This couple grew up together, grew apart and came back together at a family gathering and now they are spending their future together and it was the most precious thing to see and everyone could feel it in the room. Their food was also the best food I had!

Laura and Conner:
I loved ending the year with this wedding at Los Pablanos. The color palette she chose was gorgeous with the landscape. I love ho laid back they were and having the cake cutting and toasts in the library made for an intimate setting. They braved the cold during their portraits and the fur she had for some of her portraits was stunning and fun to incorporate. They also had a perfect balance of having an intimate gathering and having a party.


Anna and John:
This New York couple was so cool and so down to earth, and we laughed a lot with them. She absolutely nailed her look for her wedding in that stunning Vera Wang gown, and then in their true style, she changed into a more dancing dress when they got announced at the reception. It was Gucci mixed with Granola vibe and I was there for it. It was quirky and elegant and so much fun.

Wedding Inspo - Los Poblanos Historic Inn and Organic Farm

Hidden away in Albuquerque’s north valley lies one of the loveliest places on earth, Los Poblanos Historic Inn and Organic Farm. Dreamy, secluded, and downright otherworldly, this beauty of a venue has quickly become the destination for not only visitors to the Land of Enchantment, but so many lovers including a ton of our brides and grooms.

Every single time we step foot on its grounds, Los Poblanos feels mysterious, beautiful, and teeming with wonder. From spring to winter, weddings here always carry an air of beguiling charm, while still feeling like a cozy home-away-from-home. We’re not sure if the endless garden options for ceremonies or all the little hidden spots we’ve discovered for romantics over the years, but this lavender farm certainly lives up to all of its expectations. And with its amazing wedding day staff, complete with our gal pal Chelsea Martinez as Wedding Coordinator, Los Poblanos is nothing short of an absolute dream come true.

Rain or shine, we’ve captured some of the sweetest, most intimate, tear-worthy moments with some of the most amazing couples around at Los Poblanos. We can’t wait to be back at this stunner of a location many many times this wedding season!!!
