Margie and Kellen’s Elopement
We love our boho brides, so when we got a chance to design a romantic beachside ceremony with a multi-panel triangle arch installation, we knew this elopement would be special. We helped Margie and Kellen plan a care-free, laid-back elopement that let them focus on their connection in a beautiful setting.
These two started their day at an Airbnb before heading to the Oregon Coast for a private beachside elopement. As planners, we love working with our couples to find hidden places to elope on the Oregon coast, so our couples can enjoy the rugged beauty of the central coastline without sacrificing the need for privacy for an intimate ceremony. And when we found a location formed around staggering cliffs and dramatic rock formations, we couldn’t wait to create a ceremony design that celebrated the bold natural landscape surrounding this intimate wedding location.
Set on a sprawling coastline, we wanted to create a space that gave our couple the chance to feel like they could be immersed in the rugged beach environment but grounded in a dedicated ceremony spot to exchange their vows. So we reinvented the traditional triangle arch with a custom built multi-panel set-up painted in blush and terra-cotta hues to give our couple the perfect intimate space to elope on the Oregon Coast. Warm pops of mauve, dusty rose, and terra-cotta florals adorned the multi-panel arch, creating a unique bohemian feel for the ceremony design.
While our custom arch may be the biggest part of our design, we loved styling a sweetheart table setup on the beach for our couple to celebrate. After Margie and Kellen said their vows (sealed with a shot from Officiant Jimmie), these two settled into a bohemian, Moroccan style dessert set-up. The modern tablescape design incorporates organic and low-profile floral arrangement by Good Seed Floral to build on the carefree, laid-back feel of the day. We added velvet textures with accent pillows and details to create warmth, then we incorporated touches of blues and browns to add to the natural, beach setting.
Every detail worked in harmony, creating a perfectly care-free setting for these two to exchange their vows in a romantic beachside setting and end their day running towards the ocean on their own private coastline.
