Mismatched Greenery and Modern, Organic Décor Combine for Personality-Filled Wedding Day at The Evergreen

Just across the river from downtown Portland, Lindsey Wilson and Brian Ki tied the knot at The Evergreen. The groom had tears in his eyes as his bride joined him at the altar, which was adorned with a wide variety of potted plants—the mismatched greenery providing an organic feel against the ceremony space. Sunlight reflected off the shimmering champagne-colored bridesmaid dresses and beamed through the windows on either side of the couple as they said their vows. The unique reception design was largely centered on cultivating a memorable guest experience with a delicious donut bar, creative drink displays and a lineup of hourly surprise signature cocktails—each drink inspired by a special memory in their love story. Guests were invited to “Take a hike” to their seats with a themed seating chart that featured silhouettes of mountain ranges against a chic sage-green backdrop. Foregoing traditional numbers, tables were named after a few of the bride and groom’s favorite hiking spots. Tablescapes were simple and refined, with blush pink napkins to contrast the beautiful greenery and candlelight that flowed down the length of the tables. Following their dance to “Motion” by Emotional Oranges, the first concert the couple attended together, colorful glasses were passed around to ramp up the party atmosphere, transforming their day of love and celebration into an incredibly electric night that is sure to be remembered forever. Reflecting on their personality-filled event, Lindsey shares, “Every part of the celebration felt intentional and full of heart, and getting to share those moments with all our friends and family made it truly unforgettable.”
