When you plan an Olympic National Park wedding, sometimes you need to expect mosquitoes. At least, if your first look takes place at Madison Falls.

Sound Originals was thrilled to be Nicole and Zach’s photography and videography team for their adventure elopement.

The special day began at Madison Falls. Nicole snuck up on Zach for their emotional first look. Madison Falls is a short hike from the parking lot. Washington Trails Association says it’s less than 0.2 miles to the gorgeous waterfall. As a result, it’s an easy hike. Even a bride in a wedding dress carrying a bridal bouquet can do it! First, we took romantic photos under the canopy of trees. Secondly, the majestic waterfall added a humming soundtrack to the elopement videography. As a result, we dodged mosquitoes at every turn! The couple brought their three dogs to the marriage. They watched eagerly as we scrambled down the rocks to the waterfall to pose for intimate and loving photos.

At Hurricane Ridge, 5,000 feet high, Zach serenaded his vows amid breathtaking views of forested hills. Check National Park Service updates for weather-related road closures and cloudy conditions. Prepare for any weather when planning your Olympic National Park elopement.

After the ceremony, the couple removed their masks and celebrated with a passionate first kiss. This is the kind of moment that wedding photographers and videographers crave. Pure emotion. Authentic feelings.

Nicole and Zach had their first wedding dance at Salt Creek Beach, about 30 minutes away from Hurricane Ridge. Salt Creek Beach is still on the Olympic Peninsula. It’s a secluded beach with rocky outcroppings and fantastic sunsets.
