We are so excited to share Rebecca and Matthew’s Long Beach wedding!

Located a little over three hours southwest of Seattle, Long Beach is the perfect location for your sandy ceremony. This 28-mile-long beach is the longest contiguous beach in the United States. Your wedding portraits will be breathtaking, with tall grasses, gentle waves, and a sandy beach full of seashells.

Our photographers started their day by capturing the beautiful details that made this wedding truly unique. Rebecca’s sea green and blue jewelry and Matthew’s nautical watch perfectly set the tone for this special day. Next, we led Rebecca to where Matthew patiently awaited their first look. After the couple had a few precious moments together, it was time for their portraits. We could have photographed them forever against the green and tan grasses gently blowing in the wind. It was the perfect backdrop for their timeless portraits. Then, it was time for the ceremony.

Rebecca gracefully walked the sandy beach to Matthew, who was next to a picture-perfect driftwood arch. After the couple recited their handwritten vows and their officiant playfully read his speech with Anthony Bourdain’s Kitchen Confidential in hand, it was time to celebrate. Everyone gathered at a nearby hotel and restaurant for a wonderful dinner and night of dancing. 

We are very grateful to have been a part of Rebecca and Matthew’s stunning Long Beach wedding! We can’t wait to share their photos below!
