An Intimate Forest Wedding in the PNW
As a preferred vendor at Rocky Hill Weddings and Events in White Salmon, Washington, I've had the privilege of capturing some beautiful moments at this breathtaking PNW venue. When Kelsie and Austin chose this location for their intimate outdoor wedding, I knew their day would be something special. If you're dreaming of a wedding that combines the adventurous spirit of an elopement with the amenities of a full-service venue, let me show you why Rocky Hill might be your perfect match.
The Magic of Rocky Hill's Tree Deck
There's something truly magical about exchanging vows surrounded by towering trees that have witnessed countless love stories. Rocky Hill's tree deck creates this exact experience - an intimate sanctuary where nature meets elegance. The gentle rustle of pine branches and filtered sunlight create an atmosphere that's both grounding and ethereal. For couples seeking that raw, natural connection of an adventure elopement while still wanting to treat their guests to a full wedding experience, this venue strikes the perfect balance.
A Celebration That Reflects Your Love Story
Kelsie and Austin's wedding day was a beautiful reminder that your celebration can be exactly what you want it to be. They chose to gather their closest family and friends for an intimate celebration that honored what mattered most to them - their love for each other and their connection to the people who mean the most. With the stunning backdrop of the Columbia River Gorge and the personal touches brought in by their community, every moment felt intentional and true to who they are as a couple.
The Perfect Blend of Adventure and Elegance
What sets Rocky Hill apart is how it combines the raw beauty of the Pacific Northwest with the convenience of a full-service venue. While you feel immersed in nature, you're also able to easily accommodate all the elements that make a wedding day special - from the carefully crafted floral arrangements to the evening's soundtrack provided by your DJ, from the food truck options to the coordination of your wedding planner. It's the perfect setting for couples who want to honor both their adventurous spirits and their desire to create an unforgettable experience for their guests.
Your Vision, Your Day
As a photographer who knows every corner of this venue, I can tell you that each wedding at Rocky Hill takes on its own unique character. Whether you're dreaming of an intimate gathering like Kelsie and Austin's or envisioning something different entirely, this versatile venue provides the perfect canvas for your love story. The way the light plays through the trees, the dramatic backdrop of the Columbia River Gorge, and the seamless flow between outdoor and covered spaces all come together to create something truly magical.
Stress-Free Bridal Portraits
Since their wedding was intimate with a slow pace, we were able to take so many beautiful bridal portraits without rushing onto the next thing. It was a perfect Oregon fall day, which added to the “just married” glow.
