Washington Mountain Wedding in the North Cascades

This stunning mountain wedding in the North Cascades included all of the ingredients for a perfect wedding day: family, food (umm. yes please), and of course, adventure! This couple started with a first look and intimate ceremony by the cabin, cooked for and shared an incredible meal with their closest loved ones, shared their first sunset as a married couple on the top of a mountain, and hiked down by headlight under a super bright Milky Way and thousands of stars. There’s really no wrong way to plan a mountain wedding, (I mean, you’re marrying your best friend in the mountains!) but I promise if your day looks anything like this couple’s then you are doing something really right!
