Horning’s Hideout Hot August Wedding

 
Amber and Kyle held their wedding and reception at Horning’s Hideout in North Plains, Oregon on Sunday, August 13, 2023, the hottest day of the year at that point with the temperature hovering around 100 degrees.
 
The tree canopy at this venue kept it much cooler, especially with the small stream running closeby during the ceremony in the Creekside area, where I had setup a second small sound system to provide music and lapel microphone for the officiant.

Following the ceremony, guests walked up the hill to the reception area.

A last minute request for a Dollar Dance preceeded the dance floor opening to all 70 guests in attendance, who were mostly partial to the slower numbers in the first hour. The energy picked up a little later, especially during the bride’s request for “Cupid Shuffle” and other fun group dance songs.

The ceremony was planned for outside just off the Livingstone Room patio overlooking the golf course, but Mother Nature had other plans, so a tent was setup just off the patio, but still connected to the building.
