Three Strands Farm Wedding

by Rebekah · Leave a Comment

Three Strands Farm Lebanon Oregon

The best two words to describe Tallen + Madison’s wedding at Three Strands Farm last Saturday, is PURE MAGIC.

When I asked Madison what her theme for the wedding was, she said that if she had to choose, it would be fairytale in the woods. And I can confirm, without a doubt, their wedding day absolutely fulfilled that vision.

Three Strands Farm, out in the wildwoods of Lebanon, Oregon, provided the perfect backdrop for this magical day.

If anyone is looking for a wedding venue, I can’t recommend Three Strands Farm enough! Tom & Kristi (plus their Golden Retrievers!) are some of the sweetest folks, and it was a huge honor to get to photograph their venue.

And speaking of sweet, let’s talk about Tal + Mads for a second. These two people have two of the most genuine + kind souls I have ever met. Everything about them is real + authentic, plus, they make a drop-dead-gorgeous couple together. Getting to hang out with them over the weekend (view their day-after adventure session here!) was so incredibly fun, because not only are they just hilarious/super joyful people, but they’re also the type of people who you just feel instantly comfortable around, even if you only met them in-person a few hours ago!

From the most precious first look, to the stunning bride + groom and bridal party portraits, to the middle-of-the-forest ceremony (where the guests put away their own electronics and just enjoyed the moment! praise be!), to the heartfelt speeches, to the most beautiful first dances (including the Beauty & the Beast-esque daddy/daughter dance which they really didn’t practice for), to the literally-straight-out-of-a-fairytale husband + wife sunset portraits, to more partying + general merrymaking, to the best send-off I’ve ever seen, this wedding will go down in history as the most magical, the most genuine, and the most joy-filled wedding ever.

Tal + Mads, wow you guys. Saying that I’m thankful for you two is such a gross understatement, but here ya go…I’m thankful for you. Thankful for your genuine hearts, thankful for your friendship, and so dang thankful that you hired me as your wedding photographer, because getting to know you two has been the biggest honor ever.

“May you be poor in misfortune,
rich in blessings,
slow to make enemies,
quick to make friends.
But rich or poor,
quick or slow,
may you know nothing but happiness
from this day forward.”

Alright, so you decided not to elope…but you sti Alright, so you decided not to elope…but you still desperately want epic wedding day portraits on a beach or in the woods or on a mountain.

Well, there’s an easy solution for that!

Simply book a day-after adventure session.

So, the day after your wedding, the 3 of us (you, your new spouse, and me) will go on an adventure…and it can be as wild or as tame as you want!

Want to hike a few miles into an epic viewpoint and then change into your wedding clothes? HECK YEAH let’s do it.

Want to just go for a sweet stroll on the beach? HECK YEAH let’s do it.

My toxic trait is seeing sunshine in January and t My toxic trait is seeing sunshine in January and thinking spring is here. 💀

And then my husband reminds me that it’s only January. 🤦🏻‍♀️😭

So if anyone wants to go ahead and book their golden hour summer session now so that I have something to look forward to, that would be great. 😂

Don’t get me wrong…I LOVE first looks and I th Don’t get me wrong…I LOVE first looks and I think they’re 110% worth it.

BUT.

When my husband and I got married, I knew that NOT having a first look was super important to him.

So, like a good little future-wife, I argued for awhile but then finally remembered that “oh hey, this is his wedding too so he should probably be allowed to make some of the decisions” and gave in.

And we didn’t have a first look.

AND IT WAS TOTALLY OKAY!

So, here’s my encouragement to you:

If neither of you feel strongly about *not* having a first look, then go ahead and have one!! It’s ABSOLUTELY worth it (for so many different reasons).

But, if after looking at all the info and reasons TO have a first look, one (or both) of you feel strongly that it’s just not something you want, that is MORE THAN OKAY.

My one piece of advice would be… find a photographer who can work quickly & efficiently so that your guests aren’t waiting around for too long between the ceremony ending and the reception officially beginning!
