Katie & Matt’s Hoh Rainforest Intimate Wedding

Katie and Matt’s Hoh Rainforest intimate wedding was a perfect blend of love, family, and spontaneity, all set against the lush greenery of Olympic National Park. The day began near the visitor center, where the couple shared a heartfelt first look. With the rain falling steadily, they chose this spot to keep polished before heading deeper into the forest’s enchanting trails. After their first look, they slipped into matching Navy sweatshirts, honoring Matt’s military service and capturing a fun, meaningful moment together.

Their ceremony was initially planned for the Spruce Nature Trail, but a massive fallen spruce tree blocked the path. Embracing the unexpected, they pivoted to a cozy, intimate nook that perfectly accommodated their loved ones. Surrounded by towering trees and soft moss, Katie and Matt exchanged vows, creating a moment that was as heartfelt as it was magical.

After the ceremony, they took some time to explore the forest on their own, enjoying quiet moments together, listening to the rain and taking in the incredible scenery. The day wrapped up soaked from the rain, laughing, and greeted by the iconic Roosevelt elk—a fitting end to their adventurous celebration.
