Oceanfront Wedding in Bayview State Park, Anacortes WA

Kristina & Kyle wanted a relaxed, minimal fuss wedding in the outdoors; someplace picturesquely PNW before they moved back to Spokane from Bellingham, and they found the perfect spot to host their day in Bayview State Park. Bayview is a tiny, tiny little town outside of Anacortes, but it packs a lot of punch; there were gorgeous views everywhere we looked! Lots of family and friends made great use of the campground in the park and stayed for the weekend of the wedding. The bridal party got ready in the most picturesque row of cabins across the street from the beach, with the islands and mountains and towering pines of the Puget Sound all around. Kristina & Kyle had their first look in a forested glen by the cabins before heading down to the beach for their ceremony. Afterwards, everyone headed up to the Bayview Civic Hall, a lovely all white meeting hall with the most amazing view of the Sound from the lawn. I met these two last year at Kristina’s brother’s wedding, and it was so awesome to be able to see everyone one from this family again! This day was as relaxed and fun as any laidback bride could hope for, and it was a great start to kick off our 2018 wedding season with such amazing folks.
