River Cabaan, Oregon Coast
Rachel and David’s Micro Wedding
At a chic mid-century cabin on the Wilson River, David and Rachel joined us for a celebration to remember at the River Cabaan estate. This award-winning property is renowned in the Pacific Northwest for its secluded natural habitat and its elevated design, and we know this would be the perfect location for our couple to exchange vows along their own personal waterfront forest property.
Leaning into the organic river blues and forest greens of the Pacific Northwest, we designed this high- end micro wedding to feature modern and luxe vibes, with a funky and unique Oregon feel. The paper goods incorporate creams, whites, blushes and soft ochre on letterpress – a perfect complement to the amber and neutral accents throughout the ceremony and reception design. And we leaned into a neutral-centric color palette of amber, blush, white and dusty sage throughout the ceremony and reception spaces.
We worked closely with Noble Floral Co. to create a ceremony space ceremony filled with cloud-like clusters to create an unstructured arch shape against the river backdrop. The lighter sage tones and pops of the dusty sienna tones juxtaposed the natural surroundings, and the organic ceremony arch shape – and the gown from Kinsley James Couture Bridal – were cascading and ethereal in shape and textures. The staggered and organic arch design and the layered, luxe fabric layers or the bridal gown tied in nicely to create an overall luxe vibe.
After the ceremony, the bride and groom wandered back to a luxe reception space that truly pushed artistic boundaries and rejuvenated creativity. We sourced velvet tablecloths, amber glassware and coup glasses to create a modern, minimalist feel. The design details were luxe and timeless – including mid-century-inspired cane-back chairs to match the venue architecture, oatmeal linen seats and blush napkins to pop against the luxe velluto tablecloths and organic fruit and produce details to give homage to the agricultural coastal surroundings.
Every detail from this wedding felt so inspired. This beautiful cabin on the Wilson River near the iconic Oregon Coast inspired a luxe, organic micro wedding that proves even the simplest setting can elevate effortless elegance.
