Soft drapes gently dancing with the summer breeze. Towering timbers. Forest elegance at its finest. ✨🌲

We’re so excited to introduce our new draping in the timbered ceremony space at Gathering Porch Events. These flowing details bring an added touch of warmth, romance, and softness to the natural beauty of the forest.

As daylight filters through the trees and the market lights begin to glow, the space transforms into something truly magical.

Elegant. Whimsical. Peaceful.
Just the kind of atmosphere unforgettable celebrations deserve!

Another beautiful April wedding day at Gathering Porch… and this group knew how to celebrate! ✨

From heartfelt moments under the trees to a dance floor that stayed full all night, the joy was contagious. And when the sun dipped behind the forest, the party carried on around the fire—laughter, music, and memories in the making. 🔥💃

These are the nights we love most… where connection, celebration, and a little bit of magic come together in the woods.

Cultura CdA has awesome street tacos and THE best street corn! Heather with Traveling Taps is our FAV bartender! 💕 So grateful to be a part of it all. 💛

There’s something special about opening wedding season on a beautiful April day… and today did not disappoint. 🌿✨

We had the joy of celebrating an incredible couple, Katherine & Kader, as they said “I do” surrounded by fresh spring air, soft sunshine, and the quiet beauty of the forest waking back up. It felt like the entire property was leaning in to celebrate right along with them.

Moments like these remind us why we love what we do!

A huge thank you to the amazing team of vendors who brought their talent, heart, and professionalism to make the day seamless and full of joy. It truly takes a team—and we’re so grateful for each of you.

Here’s to a season filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable beginnings. 💛

💕Happy First Anniversary! 💕

One year ago today, on Valentine’s Day 2025, you stood beneath the snowy trees and said “I DO.”

What made your day so meaningful wasn’t just the romance, it was the commitment to build something bigger together. And now, one year later, you’ve grown into a beautiful combined family.

Love like yours doesn’t just join two hearts… it creates a whole new story 💖

We are so honored your forever began here. Cheering for you, and your incredible family, always. ❤️✨

On the eve of Valentine’s Day, our hearts are full. 🤍

To every couple who has walked beneath the fir trees, held hands under the market lights, laughed on the porch, cried during vows, and gathered their favorite people in one place — thank you.

It is an incredible privilege to be invited into one of the most meaningful days of your lives. We don’t take that lightly.

We’ve seen nervous glances turn into steady hands. We’ve seen quiet strength, deep joy, and soul-deep connection. We’ve watched love promise to show up — not just for the beautiful moments, but for the challenges, the growth, and the lifelong adventure ahead.

Love is powerful. It ripples. It shapes families. It builds hope. It echoes through time.

And we are endlessly grateful to witness it.

Here’s to every Gathering Porch couple — past, present, and future. May you continue to put one another first, savor the small moments, and build a lifetime of memories that glow as warmly as the lights in the trees.

With full hearts,
Doug & Lori
