Most of our guests are traveling long distances to celebrate our love, why not make a trip out of it? The entire Pacific Northwest is gorgeous in the summer and we highly recommend taking a couple days before or after the festivities to explore.

The Willamette Valley, just south of Portland, is renowned for its picturesque landscapes and exceptional wine production.

The Oregon constitution mandates public access to all 363 miles of rugged coastline along the Pacific Ocean. Known for its dramatic landscapes, charming coastal towns, and diverse ecosystems, the Oregon Coast offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and recreational opportunities. From sandy beaches to towering cliffs, this region invites visitors to explore its unique coastal wonders. Highlights include:

Cannon Beach - Gorgeous seaside cliffs and where Scott and Emily's engagement photos were taken.

Astoria - The Columbia River crashes into the pacific in this cute town on the Oregon/Washington border. It's also famous for being featured in The Goonies.

Tilamook - Another quaint coastal town and home to the Tilamook creamery, the Oberweis of the PNW.

The Rose City and the place Scott calls home. In his words Portland is "the best food city in America, outside of Chicago." Explore food trucks, breweries and bars with gourmet menus, and many James Beard award winning restaurants. Hike through Forest Park, the largest city park in America, and up to Pittock mansion for stunning views!

Emily's home state and home to some of our favorite destinations. Looking to make a longer trip when you come out?
