Elopement Bliss: Reynee and Anthony’s Intimate Ceremony at Trillium Lake

Planning an elopement months in advance can be a gamble, especially when it comes to Oregon’s ever-changing weather. But for Reynee and Anthony, their Monday afternoon ceremony at Trillium Lake turned out to be a picturesque dream come true.

A Serene Start

Reynee and Anthony chose to share their special day with just a few loved ones: Reynee’s sister, their two beautiful children, the officiant, and myself—their photographer, and as it turned out, a witness on their marriage license. The day began with the calm and serenity that Trillium Lake offers, a perfect backdrop for their family portraits.

The lake’s pristine waters mirrored the joy and anticipation. Reynee, Anthony, and their children stood together, the stunning Mt. Hood in the background, capturing moments of togetherness and love.

An Intimate Ceremony

As the sun glistened on the lake, we moved to the water’s edge for the ceremony. The intimacy of the gathering made it all the more special. There was something profoundly moving about the simplicity and sincerity of their vows. Surrounded by nature’s beauty, Reynee and Anthony exchanged rings, promising each other a lifetime of love and adventure.

Capturing Love

After the heartfelt ceremony, we spent the rest of the day exploring the enchanting surroundings of Trillium Lake. The forest provided a lush, green contrast to the blue of the lake, and we captured some breathtaking couple portraits. The towering trees and the secluded trails offered the perfect setting for Reynee and Anthony to revel in their newlywed bliss.

Oregon’s Beauty

The hot summer day only added to the vibrant atmosphere. The warmth of the sun, the gentle breeze, and the incredible Oregon views made every moment picture-perfect. Trillium Lake, with its scenic beauty, created a magical backdrop for Reynee and Anthony’s love story.

A Memorable Experience

Being part of such an intimate elopement was truly an honor. Witnessing Reynee and Anthony’s love, surrounded by their closest family, was a reminder of what weddings are truly about—celebrating love in the most personal and meaningful way.
