We’re here with a warm and joyful wedding day in Port Gamble! Maria Clara and Michael’s Hood Canal Vista Pavilion wedding had an atmosphere that reflected them perfectly: peaceful, heartfelt, and full of laughter. Surrounded by their loved ones, the day was everything they had hoped for.
Their celebration took place at the Hood Canal Vista Pavilion, a venue run by Port Gamble Weddings & Events. The Pavilion offers stunning natural light, a spacious layout, and outdoor spots that glow especially at sunset. And just steps away, historic St. Paul’s Church brings such character to the ceremony—and that’s exactly where our couple held theirs.
The day started with sweet moments of getting ready. At St. Paul’s, guests filled the pews as anticipation built. When Maria Clara walked down the aisle, Michael’s expression said everything. The ceremony was heartfelt, classic, and beautifully intimate.
Afterward, we took a little time for portraits before heading to the Pavilion. Our professional wedding photographer captured the couple against the charming waterfront views of Port Gamble—images they’ll cherish for a lifetime.
The reception carried a warm, inviting energy. Navy linens and glowing candles set the tone, while golden accents tied it all together. First dances brought both smiles and happy tears, and later, the dance floor came alive. Under colorful lights, Maria Clara and Michael celebrated surrounded by their people—it was a night full of love and laughter.
