A Sunset Celebration on the Puget Sound

The vast, tranquil waters of the Puget Sound provided a breathtaking backdrop for Melanie and Xan’s spectacular backyard wedding on the Olympic Peninsula. This was more than a wedding; it was a deeply personal, sun-drenched celebration that perfectly captured the rustic elegance wedding PNW style. Guests gathered on a sprawling waterfront lawn, enjoying the golden hour light and the majestic view of the mountains. From the stunning sailcloth tent to the thoughtfully curated dining areas, the day radiated warmth, intimacy, and the effortless beauty of a true Pacific Northwest summer evening. It was a truly flawless event, designed for seamless joy and lasting memories.
