“The design was inspired by the raw, untamed beauty of Olympic National Park. With mist-covered mountains, towering trees and serene stillness, the setting provides all the inspiration needed,” explains Chloe Kweon of A La Chloe. Soft, neutral-toned blooms and delicate wildflowers created a meadow-like ceremony space that felt wild yet intentional. Cascading textures framed the aisle without feeling staged, blending seamlessly into the landscape. The tabletop echoed this ethos— effortless and deeply organic. Minimal florals paired with moss emphasized texture and simplicity, while earthy elements and refined details added depth. Every element was curated to feel as though it belonged in the forest, resulting in a romantic, intimate setting that was both natural and artful. As if on cue, a deer wandered into the reception space, adding a magical and unexpected touch of nature.

Jordan and Kai’s wedding was a stunning fusion of whimsical charm and timeless elegance, set against the natural beauty of Whidbey Island at the historic Captain Whidbey. Imaginative floral arrangements welcomed the guests into a secret garden, complete with a growing garden altar, a vine-wrapped staircase and dramatic hanging installations. Meaningful details that reflected Jordan and Kai’s story and heritage added a deep, personal connection to the day. Every element honored their background, from custom-curated invitation postage symbolizing their roots in Hawaii and Washington, to the inclusion of bamboo chairs and Hawaiian beer. Their design blended Jordan’s maximalist flair with Kai’s minimalist style—lush florals and fruit-laden tables paired with clean, understated linens—while thoughtful touches like a vintage bar globe, framed signage and a toile motif tied it all together. Cultural nods included traditional Hawaiian leis and a custom seating chart painted with a Norwegian fjord honored Kai’s ancestry. Jordan’s fashion-forward looks—from Vivienne Westwood to Cult Gaia—paired perfectly with Kai’s custom Indochino suit. Every choice, from the fashion to the décor, reflected the couple’s unique style and intentionality, resulting in a celebration that felt deeply personal and visually captivating.

As thoughtful as it was beautiful, this book escort wall was the perfect detail for book-lover Taylor Bowman’s wedding at Greenhouse on Harvard.
