Caitlyn & Jerimiah’s Wedding

A Monochromatic Luxury Wedding at the Griffin House in the Columbia Gorge

At Mae&Co Creative, we believe it’s imperative to incorporate location in anything we create. Our design is always rooted in a sense of place. That’s part of what makes our style and vision for your wedding day so unique. Whether that’s bringing in the natural elements with tabletop styling or choosing colors that with blend in or stand out just right, the setting always anchors design.

For this ceremony in the Columbia River Gorge, we couldn’t wait to design a completely monochromatic palette that would not only stand out amongst the greens but also enhance the natural beauty of the location. In our soft ivory design, nothing is fighting each other, nothing feels out of place and it’s perfect.

The Griffin House served as the perfect backdrop for this earthy and ethereal wedding design. The ceremony space features sweeping views of the Columbia River Gorge, one of Oregon’s most dramatic landscapes. This location isn’t without its challenges though, as our team had to create a thoughtful design that could withstand 70mph wind gusts like a champ... without one lace detail or one flower straying out of place.

Our amazing team of vendors made this day possible. Noble Floral Co. created a stunning arch design, bringing to life our visit to use only one color flower for an elegant, high end design. The design rentals added to the day’s elegance, with diamond flutes, crystal glassware, and white linens. Every detail amplified the monochromic design, including the luxury stationary from Evergreen Ink.

We love that this design shows how intentional color design can amplify a stunning natural backdrop. This earthy, monochromatic design was the perfect fit for this Columbia Gorge destination wedding. And if you’re looking for unique ways to elevate an outdoor setting, we hope you find inspiration from this unique design!
