Susie + Derrick’s Rustic Oregon Wedding Day

 

Getting Ready at Crescent Hill Acres in Sweet Home


Susie and her bridesmaids got ready at Crescent Hill Acres, a peaceful private property tucked into the trees of Sweet Home. Although this spot doesn’t have a website or official listing, it’s the kind of place that feels like a secret oasis—just about 15 minutes from the venue, with cozy spaces and lots of natural light for hair and makeup. It was the perfect calm before the excitement.

The First Look


Susie and Derrick opted for a private first look just behind the barn, surrounded by open fields and wildflowers. It gave them a moment to connect and calm the nerves before walking down the aisle. (Pro tip: if you’re nervous about being the center of attention during the ceremony, a first look is an amazing way to soak in the day just the two of you first.)

Ceremony at Siegs Valley View Ranch


The ceremony was held outdoors with sweeping views of the Oregon countryside—mountains on the horizon, golden light pouring in, and a charming wood arbor set the scene. They exchanged vows in front of their closest friends and family, with the breeze rustling through the trees and happy tears all around.

Reception Under the Stars


After the ceremony, guests enjoyed lawn games, a BBQ-style dinner, and dancing under a canopy of string lights outside the barn. The vibe was laid-back and full of love. This venue really shines for evening receptions—the light fades slowly, and the sky puts on a show as the sun sets over the valley.

Portraits in Every Direction


We took full advantage of the light and scenery at golden hour. From wide open meadows to rustic barn wood and vintage touches around the property, there’s no shortage of beautiful backdrops at Siegs Valley View Ranch. Susie’s flowy lace gown and Derrick’s western-inspired look were perfect for the setting.
