Westin Portland Harborview Wedding | Ashley & Mike! 01.28.17

This Westin Portland Harborview wedding was so much fun, in huge part because of Ashley & Mike’s ability to throw a killer party! They were my first wedding of 2017 and I was so psyched to kick off the year with such a bang! Ashley initially contacted me YEARS ago to book a portrait session. We did that session and stayed in touch, and I was so happy to hear from her after her and Mike got engaged. These two met at work — Mike is a police officer and Ashley is a firefighter, so they had seen each other on and off before finally starting to date. 🙂 Their wedding was FULL of fellow officers and firefighters and they really knew how to party! Mike proposed to Ashley at the Top of the East, so getting married at the Westin Portland Harborview seemed like a natural choice, especially considering how gorgeous it is since their big remodel — it fit Ashley’s winter theme perfectly! The day was full of so much fun and love — enjoy the photos!
