A fab elopement on Hurricane Ridge (with a sassy deer!)

At a Glance

Christina and Greg got married on their 17th dating anniversary. It was a beautiful September Wednesday afternoon in the Port Angeles area — a lucky draw for Washington fall weather.

As a couple who has been through about half of their lives together, they weren’t focused on sweating the little things. Instead, they had a beautiful and intimate elopement on Hurricane Ridge on a cliff in the Olympic National Forest. They even had a few animals show up for the festivities, including a super curious deer.

    YES! Those Fluevogs are PERFECTION. I love their little dust bags for their shoes with the quotes on them, it makes them feel very personal.

    The coat the coat the coat! Any idea where to get it? Also loved the rings, too; opals are my birth stone.
