Sierra + Sandra | North Plains, OR

Sierra Fresh and Sandra García Torres, now both Garcia Fresh, after their beautiful wedding on July 9th, 2023, held at the enchanting Horning’s Hideout in North Plains.

 

Sierra and Sandra's love story began back in their college days at Western Oregon University. While Sandra was studying Psychology and Spanish, Sierra was knee-deep in the world of Elementary Education. Their paths crossed, and little did they know that this chance meeting would lead to a lifetime of adventure and love!

The proposal story here is a double delight! Sandra took the initiative and surprised Sierra with a skydiving adventure. After an exhilarating plunge from the sky, Sandra got down on one knee, and popped the question! A month later, Sierra returned the favor with a heartwarming beach proposal, surrounded by their families.

 

Sierra had an idea of what she wanted in her wedding dress - an A line silhouette with lace. Stephanie, her bridal stylist, helped her try on several dresses. Sierra even left the shop to mull it over but couldn't resist the allure of "the one." 

 

“I actually left the shop to think about it because I wasn’t sure I was ready to commit but ended up coming back that same day to get the gown!”

She chose Allure Romance ‘3400’, a lace A line wedding dress with touches of sparkle. Bouquets of flowers trickle down the skirt to create an elegant and romantic look.

Horning’s Hideout provided the ideal backdrop for Sierra and Sandra's dream wedding. Surrounded by lush woods and a serene lake, this outdoor-loving couple's choice was spot on. They personalized their big day in every possible way, creating unforgettable moments during their first look, newlywed photos, and dancing the night away with friends and family.

 

“Our favorite part of our wedding was how personalized it was. We made sure to incorporate personalized elements everywhere we could.

Sierra and Sandra have wonderful advice for brides-to-be: Don't let the wedding planning stress get the best of you! Enjoy this special time and focus on making your wedding uniquely "you." It's those personal touches that will make your day truly magical.

 

WE wish you both a lifetime of love and happiness!
