Phuong & Andrew’s Forrest Fairytale Elopment in Forks, Washington

Phuong and Andrew are the embodiment of adventure, a couple whose love is as wild and untamed as the landscapes they explore together. Their journey led them to the breathtaking West Coast, where they chose to exchange vows in an intimate elopement at Fern Acres in Forks, WA , a venue straight out of a forest fairytale. Beneath a canopy of towering evergreens, they made promises to each other, their love blending seamlessly with the magic of the woods around them.

But their celebration didn’t stop there. They embraced every moment, turning their wedding into an unforgettable adventure. After their vows, we ventured down to Second Beach, trekking through lush forest trails to reach the rugged coastline. The ocean crashed against dramatic rock formations as they ran barefoot in the sand, soaking in the beauty of their perfect day.

The adventure continued the next day as we set off to explore the breathtaking landscapes of Mount Rainier. Wandering through alpine meadows and chasing waterfalls, they reveled in the beauty of the wild, their love shining against the backdrop of towering peaks.

Along the way, deer crossed our path, adding to the magic of the moment as if nature itself was celebrating with them. Andrew’s lighthearted humor kept the journey filled with laughter, while Phuong’s grounded and ever-growing spirit made every moment feel intentional and meaningful. Together, they are unstoppable—a perfect blend of passion, curiosity, and unwavering support. This two-day elopement wasn’t just a wedding; it was an adventure of a lifetime, a reflection of the way they love fiercely and embrace the unknown hand in hand.
