Adi and Ingrid: Wedding


Classy. Elegant. Traditional. After months of planning, Adi and Ingrid's big day finally arrived. Friends and family flew in from all over the world for the special event. Both of their parents came all the way from Indonesia. There was love, laughter, and excitement shared by everyone.

A few quiet moments alone. Ingrid patiently waits to be transformed into a bride.


It didn't take long for the silence to be interrupted. Never before have I seen a couple that spent the entire day together - from hair and makeup to prayer and fellowship at the church, Adi couldn't leave Ingrid's side. Their families filled the hotel room as they were all preparing for the big day. I love how Ingrid's mom is proudly admiring her daughter from the doorway.


How can you blame her? She looked ravishing.


Adi and Ingrid were wed at Oregon City Blessing Church. I love this photograph Randy captured of the cross.


Ingrid's sister helped her with the final touches just moments before the ceremony began.


Both Ingrid's mother and father escorted her down the aisle. Another great moment captured by Randy.


I don't think there was one dry eye in the whole church. Even though Adi had been with Ingrid all day, this goes to prove that nothing can take away from the special moment of watching your future wife make her way down the aisle.


Her father giving her away...


There was so much passion, emotion, and excitement during worship.


Who says laughter can't follow the moment everyone is waiting for....the kiss?


After the ceremony, we decided to take a stroll along the Columbia River. Adi leading his bride...


My favorite image of the day...


Waving to their friends and family from the pier...


The reception was at Salty's on the Columbia in Portland.


A few details...




The cupcakes were made by Saint Cupcake and oh were they heavenly!


One last image of the bride....Ingrid looked so amazing, I could have photographed her all day. I absolutely love her veil!


Congratulations Adi and Ingrid! I wish you a lifetime of happiness. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your wedding story.
