Portland wedding story

Leanna + Frankie’s Portland wedding story was nothing short of beautiful. Such a perfect day full of love and happiness. I mean, how can you not smile looking at these two?! I am so grateful to call them my friends!

Their wedding in three words

Woodsy dance party full of love

Leanna’s favorite memory of the day:

I have two: 1) our ceremony full of unexpected but wonderful words from Frankie and our officiant, Frankie’s brother and 2) the big sweaty group hug/dance for the last song where almost everyone there surrounded us!

Frankie’s favorite memory of the day:

Standing next to my brother watching LeAnna come down the aisle.

Wedding planning advice for newly engaged couples:

Read A Practical Wedding Planner. Make decisions about what’s important to you both early on – it’ll help later on in planning. Hire a planner if you can. Divide and conquer tasks. Don’t be afraid to ask for help!

Anything else you’d like to add:

Frankie walked down the aisle to What If This is All the Love You Ever Get by Snow Patrol. LeAnna walked down the aisle to Lullaby by the Dixie Chicks. Everything turned out wonderful, our people showed up for us, and everyone told us they had a really fun time and that the whole day was full of love. Also, the day went by SO much more quickly than we realized it would. Suddenly it was the end of the night and we weren’t ready! Both of us left our phones where we got ready and it was great to detach and just be in every part of the day.
