No. Please, please do not take photos or videos during the ceremony. We will have a professional photographer to capture all of our special moments. We want all of our guests to be in the moment as well and not focused on their phones. Thank you for understanding!

Please feel free to arrive any time before 2pm! The nature center is open to the public from dawn to dusk with many trails and wildlife to explore!

Unfortunately, there is a very hard stop of the party at the venue at 8pm. You are more than welcome to keep the party going while experiencing the night life of Portland only a 10 minute drive away! Anyone left after 8 will be assigned to clean-up duty!

Unfortunately, there is no indoor back-up location. If it rains, the plan is to bring an umbrella for the ceremony! The reception with be inside a heated tent, rain or shine.

Yes! We love children and we want your whole family to celebrate our big day with us!

Please wear something sturdy and comfortable! The entire celebration will be outside in a grassy orchard with some uneven ground. There will also be easy trails throughout the bird sanctuary that will be available for the guests to wander.

There is no pressure to dance! There will be board games and yard activities for those who enjoy celebrating in their own way!

Yes! We are happy to provide libations for the night, however we ask that you are prepared to tip our servers for the evening!
