Bad Portraits by Karlee 

5.0

Forest Grove, OR
  • Event extras
  • Guest book alternatives
  • +2 more
  • Starts at $1,800

I'm a Portland-based artist who loves connecting with people. Bad Portraits is all about creating a fun and memorable experience for guests who sit with me for quick portrait sessions during your reception. We have engaging conversations while I hand-draw each portrait and give it away as a unique memento and gift from the newlyweds. As an optional keepsake, portraits can be compiled into an illustrated guestbook along with written messages from guests, resulting in a unique and sentimental coffee table book. I scan each one as I draw to save a copy for the book, so guests can keep their portraits as a custom gift when they leave.

Bad portraits is pure magic. Karlee is not just an artist — she’s a storyteller, a connector and a true presence in any room. What makes her work truly unique is the way she captures the essence of each person. At my rehearsal dinner, she created portraits for our families and each one felt so intentional and full of personality. If you’re looking to elevate your event with something truly special, meaningful and fun, book her. She’ll bring your guests together in a way that is rare and deeply appreciated.

It was BEAUTIFUL. Nestled right next to the cutest plant shop, we were in tropical plant heaven. It was so nice to have so many amenities in one place. Other venues required us to pick so many different vendors. Here, the bar and dinner was already covered. Thank you, Zesti for a wonderful special day!

Craig has been performing as a mobile DJ for over 15 years now and still loves the craft and dedicates time regularly for practicing and staying up to date with current musical and wedding trends. He's an easy going MC with an ability to keep events of any size going smoothly.

I am a wedding photographer who has shot and worked hundreds of weddings, and I'm not being biased when I say, Craig with Silicon Forest Entertainment is the best DJ company I've ever worked with. He is extremely professional and incredibly confident on the microphone, which is a talent not everyone has. He knows music and can read a crowd so well. As another vendor, working with him is so smooth and he's incredibly considerate of the timing of each event with each vendor in mind. I always know that if I'm working a wedding with Craig, not only will the clients be thrilled, the guests will rave about the good time, and all of us vendors will work flawlessly as a team. I recommend him to all my wedding couples.

Juliana did my hair and makeup for my wedding and I felt so beautiful. She worked with me during the trial to find a style that fulfilled my vision and did an amazing job of integrating flowers into the style. We even changed the style up pretty significantly between the trial and day of and it turned out perfectly. I was so happy with how the make up turned out. I don't wear a lot of make up normally. I felt like Juliana did a great job of creating a photo worthy look that also still felt like me. Both hair and makeup lasted all day long! I was so happy to work with Goddess Glamour.

Ashley with Blue Lark Events was everything we needed and more when it came to having a day of coordinator for our marriage in Oregon at the Heceta Head Bed and Breakfast! We planned everything sight unseen, never being in the actual state we were getting married in while planning, and never having met Ashley in person. She was very thoughtfully planful, provided all of the needed information to feel confident in preparation and paid attention to every fine detail the day of. She ensured everyone playing a major part in our big day felt prepared and ready in their role/timing and was such an asset. She kept so many things organized so I could just enjoy being a bride. I cannot leave a review without mentioning her contagious energy! She has the most positive spirit and energy.

Venture Ever After

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $5,200
  • Serves Forest Grove, OR

My name is Nadia. I specialize in elopements + adventure weddings in the Pacific Northwest. I help people have the wedding of their dreams in magical outdoor spaces. When you choose to elope, you’re choosing to get married free of society’s wedding day expectations. So go wild! Spend the entire day in your favorite place, with your favorite person. Wear a fancy outfit, or wear your hiking boots. Invite your dog instead of your mom’s second cousin. Share your first kiss under the stars instead of under an altar. In the great outdoors, you write the wedding rules. And I’m here to help make it an experience you’ll remember for a lifetime.

Awarded Best of Zola
When we began looking for a photographer for our micro-wedding, we gravitated towards Nadia’s images over and over again. Not only did they capture raw, intimate moments between couples and families, but they elevated those moments in elegant and natural landscapes of the PNW; everything we wanted. We reached out and set up a consultation call immediately. We were initially nervous and felt very unprepared to speak with photographers because we had zero ideas for what our special day would look like, but after our call with Nadia we were confident that Venture Ever After was the right choice for us. She was so knowledgeable and did a TON of legwork planning our timeline to best capture the moments we wanted in the lighting we needed, recommending a variety of locations for some private moments as a couple and group activities with our family, and keeping us grounded and calm throughout the entire process. On our wedding day, Nadia took the reigns and gently guided us through the day with compassion and grace. She constantly reminded us that each moment was for us and encouraged us to revel in all of the details. She even conquered some pretty crazy heights armed with multiple cameras and a walky-talky to capture some dramatic and beautiful couple’s portraits. Beyond being an incredible photographer, Nadia is one of the most genuine and kind people I’ve met. She has a knack for keeping elopement/wedding day energy light and helping her clients feel natural in front of the camera. My partner and I truly felt like models. I feel so blessed to have our wedding photographed by her and, above all, be able to call her a friend. I would recommend Nadia at Venture Ever After to everyone planning an elopement, wedding, or adventure in the PNW. In fact, I hope to be able to visit her and capture anniversaries and momentous occasions for our family long into the future.

Delaney did such an amazing job running the show at my wedding! We had a lot of set-up that she executed for us perfectly, and some quirky timeline/vendor things that she managed really seamlessly. We had rain, which was a little stressful, but she helped keep us calm and deal with the changes in the timeline/plan that occurred as a result. She was right there when we needed her, all night, with a smile on her face.

We got married at Parrett Mountain Cellars on March 13th, 2025, and it was everything we could have hoped for and more. We were looking for a venue that felt rustic, intimate, and beautiful, and Parrett Mountain Cellars absolutely delivered. From the moment we toured the property, we knew it was the right choice. The setting has a warm woodland lodge charm, stunning views, and a cozy yet elegant feel that made it perfect for both our ceremony and reception. A huge part of what made our day so special was Sara and Marlene. They were incredibly supportive, communicative, and flexible throughout the planning process. Their attention to detail and thoughtful preparation (including backup plans for unpredictable Oregon spring weather!) helped us feel completely at ease. Our guests haven’t stopped raving about the gorgeous views and delicious wine. Everything about the venue felt personal and welcoming, without any of the stress or fuss you sometimes hear about with wedding planning.

My brother is into mixology and had designed his and hers cocktails for us and she was happy to serve those, even making her own syrups. She helped us calculate how much alcohol to purchase - we did run out of gin pretty early on but I blame my husband for not buying the extra bottle I suggested since we were slightly under her recommendation. Even though she was working by herself she was fast and kept the lines short. I was late getting payment to her after the wedding since we were on our honeymoon and not checking emails and she was not upset by this at all! I highly highly recommend working with Allie, especially if you have a budget you need to stick to, since she will work within your budget!

My husband and I absolutely loved working with WildWood! They were amazing, and extremely helpful throughout our entire wedding! Our photographer Joelle was so willing to go the extra mile for us and our videographer was so fun!

I was the Mother of the Bride. We had the wedding at our house, and Jenny was absolutely fantastic. She took care of everything before the wedding with a couple of visits to the house and via calls and email. On the day of, Jenny took care of everything- it wasn't the smoothest day because we had rain (Oregon), but Jenny was flawless in handling it. She also recommended a wonderful waitstaff that I will definitely hire again. I highly recommend Jenny with Daisy May Events

I hired Katarina to do my mom’s hair and make up for my wedding last year and am so glad I did! My mom isn’t super flashy with hair and make up so it was important to me that I found someone who could have my mom’s make up look be authentic to my mom’s style. Katarina did a great job at making my mom feel at ease, and most importantly, my mom’s glam was gorgeous yet natural like my mom wanted. I’m glad I found her and would refer to other brides and families!
