Megan and Riley’s Mt. Rainier elopement was truly a one-of-a-kind experience. The couple shared a private first look before exchanging heartfelt vows in a secluded spot beside the Ohanapecosh River. Afterwards, they retreated to a cabin with their closest family and friends for an intimate dinner celebration. Against the breathtaking backdrop of the surrounding mountains, the newlyweds shared their first dance and raised a toast to their lifelong commitment. It was a truly unforgettable day filled with love, joy, and stunning natural beauty.

THE PROJECT

  • Our lead coordinator Megan got to marry them!!! When we say we’re equipped to do it all, we really mean it…

OUR FAVORITE PARTS

Megan and Riley reached out for coordination less than a month before their wedding, so we dove right into our planning process. With distance keeping us from touring the locations in-person, we made all of our decisions based on photos and Google maps! Thankfully, we were able to coordinate with their photographer who was in the area a few weeks before the wedding to have them scout out that beautiful ceremony location. Luckily, everywhere we chose ended up being as breathtaking in real life as it was in the pictures.

Planning an elopement at Mt. Rainier offers a breathtaking backdrop for your special day. To make the most of this stunning location, consider the following style tips:
 • Embrace the Natural Setting: Opt for attire and décor that complement the lush greenery and rugged terrain. Earthy tones and natural fabrics can enhance the organic feel of your ceremony.
 • Intimate Ceremony Details: Since elopements are typically more private, focus on personalized elements like handwritten vows or a custom ceremony arch that reflects your unique love story.
 • Seasonal Considerations: Mt. Rainier’s weather can be unpredictable. Ensure you have appropriate attire and contingency plans for varying conditions, especially if you’re planning a summer elopement.
 • Capture the Moment: Hire a photographer experienced with mountain landscapes to truly capture the majesty of your elopement setting.
 • Leave No Trace: Respect the natural environment by minimizing your ecological footprint. Use eco-friendly materials and ensure all décor is removed after the ceremony.

By incorporating these elements, your Mt. Rainier elopement will be a harmonious blend of natural beauty and personal significance.

Katelynn saved my sanity! We were only a few weeks out from our intimate wedding and all of the details were overwhelming me and ruining any joy. Sage Event Co was recommended by our photographer, and I reached out with a desperate plea for help.[...] Katelynn was there for the loose ends and for day of. Money well spent and I’m so grateful for all she did leading up to the event and in the day of. Thank you Katelynn.

“My coordinator from Sage Event Co. was Megan and she was truly an INCREDIBLE coordinator. I was extremely stressed and overwhelmed with wedding planning and she always remained calm and optimistic with everything. She was like a breath of fresh air. A few days after my wedding I found out about some hiccups that happened the day of that I never would have known about because Megan took care of it and handled any issue that arised. I honestly don't know what I would have done without her and all of her amazing work. I highly recommend hiring Sage Event Co. (specifically Megan!), they knocked it out of the park! Thank you, Megan, for everything!!!”

As our Day-Of Coordinator, Megan and her assistant Paityn made sure that our day went SO smoothly. She did an incredible job with the set-up and decor, fielded any and all questions, and made sure that I didn't have to think about my phone or the logistics of the day at all. I didn't wear a watch or check what time it was because Megan was all over our schedule. Leading up to our wedding Megan always had vendor suggestions, answered every question I had, talked me off of every ledge, and was just a joy to work with. She has an easy smile and calm demeanor and if you need someone to make sure you have "the best day ever" Sage Event Co has you covered. Our wedding was everything I could have dreamed of and more because of her help in the planning and the flawless execution. We will forever be indebted to Megan and her team!”

One of the best decisions I made was hiring Katelynn from Sage Event Co. for my day of coordinator! I cannot even begin to describe how much Katelynn helped make sure everything went as planned.[...] We had a few meetings including a venue walk through prior to our wedding on 10/22/22 and it was so comforting knowing that she was there to handle the day. Katelynn was super organized and calm and took over managing my vendors about a week prior which was so reassuring. [...] My family made so many comments about how great and hard working they were and what a relief it was to have them present. Everything came together so well and I know that would have not happened without Katelynn and Paityn. They set up everything and helped with the clean up and I cannot express how amazing of a job they did.

"I definitely cannot recommend Sage Event Co. enough!"

I hired Prudence and Sage about a month and a half before my wedding and am so glad that I did. I worked with Katelynn throughout the entire process to finalize all my plans and she was absolutely fantastic. Everything flowed seamlessly and she even brought in a crew for set-up and clean-up. I could not imagine my wedding day without her. Every detail, down to the smallest thing, was completely covered and my day was stress free.

"Thank you so much for allowing my husband and I to enjoy the most beautiful day of our lives."
