Intimate Winter Wedding at Dame Restaurant
This January wedding at Dame Restaurant in Portland Or was a stunner. It was intimate, chic and full of beautiful details. It also felt effortless - it all just fell together in the most organic and lovely way. The magic of this wedding, so gorgeously captured by Brandi Potter Photography, is really a testament to what happens when a couple lets their own style and vision truly guide them.
Warm neutrals were punched up with all the shades found in the delicious natural wines served at Dame - tawny yellows, carnelian orange, ruby claret and purple tinged pinks were set off against deep green foliage and the marine blue of the restaurant walls.
Cate made her way though the smiling faces of their dearest friends and family to meet Shane. They were married in front of a floral curtain designed using tropical greens and foliage and strung with locally grown, apricot hued lilies.
I love this portrait. So romantic, and the drama of that gorgeous veil.
Small, intimate spaces allow for a lot of impact. I think guests feel close and included, and the couple gets to feel the love and support of their nearest and dearest. Flowering this wedding was a delight artistically and creatively.
So much love, good wine and food!
