THOUGHTS FROM STEPH’S BRAIN
Hey! We’re Sarah (she/her) & LJ (They/Them) and we’ve been together 3 years. We live in Portland, Oregon. We hiked into a beautiful waterfall and exchanged vows and solidified commitments to one another. We chose to elope and it was such a great decision. It felt like it was just the two of us having a very sacred, personal, vow exchange.

I was bummed that I wasn’t more put together as I would have liked to be and was worried of what she was going to think of me.

We had time to get creative and pull off the road for those unexpected moments. If you think a micro wedding or elopement might be for you… I’d love to answer any questions for you! I’m here to help.
Read MoreI flew into Los Angeles a few hours before the wedding festivities began. I was greeted by a house full of friends, family and a lot of laughter. It was going to be an exciting day. Beautiful Indian culture, stunning brides & style for miles! Couldn’t ask for more. There was so much love that consumed the SmogShoppe that evening. Congrats Shannon & Seema.
