Upon entering Cape Horn Estate to attend Lauren McElhaney and Jason Yakimovich’s wedding, guests were greeted with an extraordinary sight: a plethora of custom details that reflected the couple’s love story and unique personalities, making it a truly memorable family affair. Lauren and Jason exchanged vows in an idyllic outdoor ceremony, with the majestic basalt cliffs of the Columbia River Gorge serving as the backdrop. The charming scene was enhanced by an abundance of exquisite white florals, which seamlessly fused with the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. Inspired by Gucci, the couple’s wedding design exuded modern elegance and sophistication. The color scheme included emerald green, ivory, white and soft blush and was accentuated by tasteful touches of black, which complemented the exquisite Gucci Herbarium dinnerware used in the reception décor. To honor their Austin roots, Lauren and Jason kept Tito’s vodka flowing, serving it in custom cups featuring a gold sketch of their fur baby, appropriately named Tito. The celebration also featured a one-of-a-kind beverage called a “Mac & Yak,” a delicious amber ale brewed by Lauren’s uncle. As the sun dipped behind the cliffs, the wedding party doffed lighted cowboy hats and danced the night away.
