Love was in the air this past September as Cade and Lexi said “I do” during their dreamy micro wedding at The Hummingbird Hall in Corbett, Oregon. Surrounded by close family and friends, their day was an elegant celebration filled with heartfelt moments, breathtaking scenery, and unforgettable memories. As a wedding photographer and videographer in the Portland area, I had the privilege of capturing every beautiful detail of this intimate gathering.

Getting Ready Moments at a Cozy AirBnB

The day began in a charming nearby Airbnb, where Lexi and Cade prepared for their big moment. Lexi’s laughter filled the air as she and her bridesmaids toasted with mimosas, her stunning lace gown draped nearby. Meanwhile, Cade and his groomsmen shared jokes while perfecting their classic ties. These quiet moments of anticipation are always some of my favorites to document. The soft natural light streaming through the windows of the Airbnb made for the perfect backdrop for capturing the couple’s excitement and joy.

A Timeless Ceremony in the Old Chapel

The Hummingbird Hall’s historic chapel set the scene for Cade and Lexi’s heartfelt vows. With its rustic charm and glowing candlelight, the space created an intimate and romantic atmosphere. Lexi walked down the aisle to the sound of soft string music, her eyes locked on Cade, who could hardly contain his emotions. The ceremony was simple yet profound, focusing on the love and connection between the couple. As their photographer, it was such an honor to capture the tears, laughter, and love that filled the room.

Sunset Portraits at the Columbia Gorge Scenic Overlook

After the ceremony, we headed to the Columbia Gorge Scenic Overlook for their sunset portraits—a must for any couple looking to capture the true beauty of the Pacific Northwest. With the golden hues of the setting sun painting the Gorge, Cade and Lexi looked like they were straight out of a fairytale. These portraits perfectly encapsulated the love and serenity of the day. The backdrop of the vast Gorge, paired with Lexi’s flowing gown and Cade’s tailored suit, created some of the most breathtaking images of the day.

A Joyous Reception Back at The Hummingbird Hall

Back at The Hummingbird Hall, the couple’s reception was a warm and joyful celebration. Twinkling string lights, lush florals, and an intimate dance floor set the tone for the evening. Cade and Lexi’s first dance as husband and wife was a showstopper, and the heartfelt toasts from their loved ones brought tears to everyone’s eyes. From the laughter during the bouquet toss to the final dance under the stars, every moment was filled with love and joy.

Why Choose Micro Weddings?

Cade and Lexi’s wedding is a perfect example of why micro weddings are becoming so popular. Intimate gatherings allow couples to focus on what matters most: celebrating their love with their nearest and dearest in meaningful ways.
