Denise and Randy had a Farm with a View

Mt Hood Organic Farms has it all. It is one of the more 'complete' venues we've had the pleasure of shooting at. It has the 'view', it has the country ambience, it has a classic hall for receptions, a meadow, a pond, beautifully decorated and appointed facilities for clients and some of the most spectacular port-o-poty's I have ever had the privilege to use (flowers, carpeting, concierge table, mood music and washing facilities)!

AND for at least this day, the property was graced by guests of honor Denise and Randy, our wonderful, loving, Bride and Groom.

Continuing what seems to be a growing trend, Denise and Randy utilized the products from a farmer's market for the floral accents of the day. The ceremony was officiated by Noryne Robinson of Adventure Weddings NW. The reception was in the Apple House and was catered by Mt Hood Organic Farms. The music was brought to the party by, A New Groove, a Portland based variety dance band. Dancing broke out after a delicious six course family style dinner. We were treated to some incredible harp music compliments of the Father of the Bride. The dessert, (let's not forget about the dessert), was provided by Friends with Pies and Other Stuff, (no link, it was just 'friends' that brought pies and other goodies) The things I sampled were delicious. I only 'sampled' cause goodies like THAT were certainly not going to help me lose any pounds.

A wonderful party, delicious food, great views, fantastic people, . . . a very good time.
