Cascade Vows Where love meets adventure

Path one

Easy Elopements

Locations we have already scouted, permitted and photographed dozens of times. What is included is written down. So is the price. You do not need a consultation to find out the basics.

  1. Choose the location

    Eight places across Washington, from a Seattle garden to the Olympic coast. Each one lists its guest limit, its best months and what it includes.

  2. Choose a date

    Give us a first and second choice. We confirm availability, permit windows and the light for that time of year.

  3. Choose add-ons

    Video, a second photographer, extra hours, florals, an officiant. Add what you want; skip the rest.

  4. Request it

    You get a written confirmation with the exact total. A signed agreement and a deposit hold the date — no payment happens on this website.


Eight places, eight plans

Pick where you want to stand.

Prices below are the starting investment for that location with the standard inclusions listed. Every request comes back with an exact written total before anything is signed.
