Ellie & Andrew’s Heartfelt Portland Wedding at Holy Family & Hallowed Halls
Some weddings just feel like poetry—and Ellie & Andrew’s celebration was exactly that. With meaningful traditions, tender moments, and two people whose love story grew from everyday life into something beautifully extraordinary, this day was one for the books.
We were honored to capture it all—as their wedding videographer and photographer team.

Getting Ready | A Toast to New Beginnings
The day kicked off with a champagne toast as Andrew and his groomsmen got ready. It was low-key but meaningful—a chance to pause, share a few laughs, and take in the moment before everything began. Andrew looked relaxed, focused, and ready for what was ahead. And the groomsmen squad looked dapper in light grey suits with pink and baby blue accents.
Meanwhile, Ellie and her bridal party were busy getting their hair and makeup done by the incredible Hajer of It’s So Glossy!
The Ceremony | Holy Family Catholic Church
Ellie and Andrew exchanged vows at the stunning Holy Family Catholic Church in Portland, a space filled with history, reverence, and warmth. The stained glass caught the afternoon light just right, casting a soft glow as Ellie walked down the aisle
Their ceremony was traditional yet deeply personal. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room when they said “I do.”
Reception at Hallowed Halls | Music, Memories, and Meaning
From there, the celebration moved to Hallowed Halls, a Portland venue known for its vintage charm and music roots.
In one of the most heartwarming and unexpected moments of the evening, Ellie shared a special dance with Andrew’s father to “What a Wonderful World.” It was a touching tribute, full of grace and emotion—a reminder of how families are woven together in marriage.
As Oregon wedding videographers, we live for these moments that aren’t on a timeline. The ones that just happen, and leave a lasting impression.
Ellie’s Speech | From Work to Romance
Ellie’s daughters stepped forward next. Their voices trembled slightly as they described how happy Andrew made their mom. It was sincere, raw, and beautiful.
They talked about how Andrew brought joy back into her life, how he made her smile in ways they hadn’t seen in years. That kind of love doesn’t just unite couples—it brings entire families together.
Lastly, Ellie took the mic and shared the story of how she and Andrew met while working together. What began as a professional relationship slowly turned into something deeper—something rooted in respect, laughter, and mutual admiration.
As Portland wedding photographers, moments like these are golden. They’re the soul of the story, the thread that ties everything together.
