Oregon Backyard Wedding // Emily & Nick

There’s something truly magical about an Oregon backyard wedding. The soft breeze, the familiar landscape, and the closeness of loved ones create a setting that feels both romantic and authentic. It’s where laughter echoes across open spaces, and every corner tells a story of love and connection. With twinkling lights above and heartfelt vows shared below, a backyard wedding transforms an ordinary space into an unforgettable celebration of togetherness and joy.

Emily and Nick’s story is one that feels straight out of a modern romance. They first connected in November 2020 when Emily sent Nick a message on a quiet Sunday night about football. What began as a lighthearted conversation turned into something meaningful. Their first date was a walk along the Willamette River with Starbucks in hand, and from that moment, everything just clicked. When Emily returned to the East Coast, they kept their connection strong, talking every day and visiting each other whenever they could. Eventually, Emily decided to move to Portland, and that’s where their story truly blossomed. From adventures around the Pacific Northwest to cozy movie nights at home, their bond grew naturally. And when Nick proposed in Seattle under the Ferris wheel, it was the perfect moment that marked the start of their forever.

Their outdoor wedding ceremony in Oregon reflected who they are relaxed, joyful, and deeply in love. We love photographing backyard weddings like this because every detail feels authentic. The sunlight, the laughter, and the closeness of family and friends come together beautifully. As a Portland wedding photographer team, Original Weddings has captured many outdoor celebrations across Oregon. We love how backyard weddings give couples the chance to create something that truly represents them. The freedom to design every moment and the natural scenery of Oregon make each celebration unforgettable.
