Modern & Edgy Opal 28 Wedding
When Tah-Lia and Ray tied the knot at Opal 28, their wedding was a perfect reflection of their bold and timeless style. This urban, boutique venue in the heart of Portland provided the ideal backdrop for a celebration filled with love, personality, and a touch of vintage flair.
Tah-Lia, with her Australian inflection that could charm anyone, looked absolutely radiant in her vintage silk gown. Her luxurious wavy brown hair and vibrant red lips added a timeless elegance to her look, turning heads as she walked down the aisle. Then there was Ray, the definition of dapper, rocking a navy suit that perfectly complemented his well-groomed beard and tattoos. Together, they were absolute showstoppers.
A Cozy, Urban Venue with Endless Charm
Opal 28’s intimate and stylish setting was perfect for Tah-Lia and Ray’s wedding. The exposed brick walls, warm lighting, and cozy yet chic vibe brought a sense of romance and sophistication to their big day. This venue shines for couples who want a space that’s unique, customizable, and steeped in Portland charm.
A Celebration Full of Personality
From heartfelt vows to a reception filled with laughter, their wedding day was as authentic as their love story. Tah-Lia and Ray infused their personalities into every detail—from the curated playlists to the artistic decor. The result? A celebration that felt as special and unique as the couple themselves.
