Romantic Spring Wedding in Oregon
Carver Event Center | Daniel + Megan
Daniel and Megan’s spring wedding at Carver Event Center was a perfect blend of timeless style, creative details, and joyful celebration. The historic Carver School, with its classic white exterior and warm wood interior, set the stage for a day that felt both elegant and welcoming. One of the most unique touches was Megan’s choice of faux florals—a bouquet of silk roses in soft blush, ivory, and mauve tones that looked so lifelike guests couldn’t believe they weren’t fresh. This thoughtful choice gave the couple lasting keepsakes while keeping their florals picture-perfect all day long. Behind the scenes, Shannon with Periwinkle Events ensured every detail came together seamlessly. From the ceremony setup to the evening reception, her planning and coordination allowed Megan and Daniel to simply enjoy the day, surrounded by their loved ones.
The day started with Megan’s gown displayed on the schoolhouse doors, a simple yet striking detail that set the tone for the celebration ahead. The couple did a first look followed by some portraits surrounded by lush Pacific Northwest greenery before heading into the warm, wood-paneled venue to exchange vows. Their ceremony was emotional and full of joy, with cheers and applause erupting as they sealed it with a kiss.
