Crystal Ballroom wedding day in Portland, OR
Some weddings are so full of energy and joy that you can’t help but get swept up in the celebration. This Filipino wedding at Crystal Ballroom in Portland was exactly that—laughter, love, and non-stop fun from start to finish.
The day started in the best way possible—surrounded by family, food, and so much love. Filipino weddings are all about tradition and community, and you could feel it in every moment. From the emotional getting-ready moments to the heartfelt ceremony, the couple was constantly surrounded by their closest people, making every part of the day feel even more special.
And then came the reception—hands down, one of the most high-energy celebrations I’ve ever photographed! Crystal Ballroom was the perfect venue, with its legendary floating dance floor, vintage charm, and gorgeous chandeliers. The second the music started, the dance floor was packed. Well, you can see that.
The venue
There’s something magical about Crystal Ballroom—the history, the character, and of course, that dance floor that moves with the crowd. It’s the kind of venue that brings people together, and for a wedding like this, it couldn’t have been more perfect.
The approach
My approach to wedding photography is all about documenting the real moments—the big emotions, the unexpected laughter, the little details that make your day unique. This wedding was packed with all of that and more, and it was an absolute honor to capture it.
