Redwood Deck Elopement at Hoyt Arboretum

Looking for an intimate location to have your wedding? The Redwood Deck at Hoyt Arboretum may be just the place for you. Hoyt Arboretum is a prime location right in Portland that has gorgeous trails, big trees, and the stunning Redwood Deck. Big weddings aren’t for everyone, heck a big wedding wasn’t for me. Which is how I ended up specializing in micro-weddings and elopements. One thing I do know is that your wedding deserves to be captured, no matter what it looks like. It is an occasion to be celebrated and looked back on for a lifetime.
