My husband and I had just gotten married the week prior and were visiting Oceanside, Oregon for our…read moremini moon. On a whim, we decided we wanted to have photos taken of us in Tunnel Beach to commemorate our trip. I started researching for photographers in the area or those who could travel to Oceanside and I was immediately drawn to Alix's portfolio, style, and aesthetic. Alix was very quick to respond to my Instagram message and make it out to Oceanside the very next day from Portland. She was very professional and warm from when we first communicated over Instagram to meeting in person. She wore a mask the entire time and it felt so natural to be around her. The experience never felt forced or unnatural because she allowed us to just be -- my husband and I were able to enjoy every moment with each other while Alix gave us little pointers here and there and took amazing shots of us in the Oregon sunset! Alix is an excellent communicator and is very easygoing and kind. On top of all that, she is an amazing photographer. Thank you so much Alix for such a wonderful time and for capturing us during our mini moon, especially on such short notice! I highly recommend Alix and would work with her again any day!

Tl;dr, Alix is an incredible photographer, extremely professional, and you won't regret booking her…read morefor a second. I found Alix via Google rabbithole as I was researching photographers. Her raw, emotive, and timeless photography took our breath away. My husband and I got engaged in February, just as lockdowns were happening, and our wedding plans gradually scaled down from a traditional wedding to a just-us ceremony. Alix worked with us to plan a flexible ceremony schedule structured around stunning Oregon coast backdrops and unpredictable December weather. She didn't batt an eye when we adjusted locations the day of our vows to take advantage of the perfect weather. And on that day, it was me, my husband, and Alix. For such an intimate life moment, you really need to trust and vibe with your photographer, and Alix was amazing. She zipped my dress, adjusted my hair, warned us about incoming waves, and captured our happiness. That's the best part about Alix's work and about that day: we didn't feel posed or awkward (even though we're not used to being in front of a camera), we had fun and laughed and frolicked, and she captured it all. Our photos are stunning, they get compliments all the time, but above all I *feel* our joy when I look at them, and to Alix we'll always be grateful. We can't wait to work with her again.

Excellent and friendly customer service! As a first time "wedding" planner mom, Julie was very…read morehelpful, kind, and personable. Very professional. Details from her spelled out - nothing left unstated in documents for signature. I felt very comfortable speaking to her over the phone. Julie has been very helpful in the planning of my daughterʻs wedding. I came to Oregon for a week with the intention of getting things planned and securing all the services, supplies, etc. for the event happening in September. Julie was amazing to work with; she responded to my phone calls right away, and answered my questions and provided more tips and help than expected. I felt reassured leaving Oregon that our daughterʻs wedding would be beautiful, even knowing that I can still call Julie from out of state before arriving in September for the wedding. I am looking forward to working with her and Events By Design for the wedding. I would HIGHLY recommend them for your event (large or small). I couldnʻt be more pleased with her service.

The weather had been perfect up until the morning of the wedding when we awoke to drizzly skies, that wasn't in our plan. The planner and staff had to make a quick change to move the venue indoors, which turned out to be absolutely beautiful, as we stood in front of the crackling fireplace watching the bride and groom exchange their vows. Maybe I'm biased but it was the most beautiful wedding I've ever attended. The coordinator was easy to work with, giving us the freedom to book our own vendors and use our connections for wine and beer which made the day more affordable. Highly recommend!

I believe we attended the very first wedding at this location, and everything went smoothly and looked fantastic. They have a very cool looking island with a tree in the middle and an arched wooden bridge to cross to it. This is a great location for all types of photographs for pre, post, and during the wedding. The one I went to had the groom and bride actually get married on the island. There are also plenty of other ranch style photo locations, including hay stacks, an old rusted out pickup truck (very cool), horse stables, and others i'm sure I didn't notice. There is ample parking too: you could easily fit over 50 cars there without issue. Our party tent seated around 50 guests, with about 6 people comfortably seated at each table. Under the event tent, they also had a DJ with a wooden dance floor to keep the party going. The dance floor was just big enough to fit everyone that wanted to dance, without making it look sparse. At the end of the night, we finished off by the fire pit for a night cap and to reminesce about the day. All in all, it was a great time!

When we arrived, parking was super easy. Cute chalk board style signs directing traffic to a field. The ranch had a large white tent with tables and chair under for the party. A custom built pallet wall and dance floor completed the ranch wedding vibe that my friend was looking for. Coral and tan burlap lay on top of the white table cloths. Wood round rings carefully placed under each vase of flowers. Before the wedding we got ready in a bridal room and were able to do hair and makeup photos. It was such a convenient area to get ready and have privacy. Wedding decor in the space and plenty of mirrors to check out every detail! The caterers they worked with did an amazing job on appetizers and dinner! There was a fun smores bar too. The bartenders kept us happy all night long with fun wedding themed cocktails, champagne, wine, beer, and mixed drinks. My friends got married on the pond island in front of 61 family members and friends. The wooden benches completed the look. I loved watching my friend walk from the bridal area to the aisle with her father. A magical experience. The dance floor was definitely broken in! I would highly recommend this venue for anyone looking for awesome people and a beautiful view of the mountains.
