Jenn — Wed, 23 Mar 2022 10:00:35 +0000

Let’s take a break from the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy Cassie and Heath’s green and white natural mountain wedding! Surrounded by wildflowers and cheered by their closest family and friends, the couple tied the knot with such a scenic view. There is definitely no better way these two could’ve started their forever together. Nature was brought inside as seen in the wedding details. Long greenery garland and white florals adorned the reception. The ladies looked dainty and fresh in their mismatch mint green dresses. The men were equally dazzling in their outfits! While everyone loved the overlooking highlands, the newlyweds simply enjoyed each other’s company. Shannon took eye-candy photos as they basked in the fresh air. It was a day they will all remember for how much fun and heartfelt every moment was. Let yourselves escape to the outdoors, for just a little while, as you scroll through these photos from Shannon Clark Photography.

Surprise Vineyard Proposal

Jenn — Tue, 13 Apr 2021 15:00:45 +0000

At Elegant Wedding, we always look forward to wedding proposal stories. We do not only get excited about the engagement but also about how the groom-to-be plans to pop the question. In today’s feature, Tristan took to photographer Michael his plan of proposing to his long-time girlfriend, Chloe. They came up with a clever idea. They asked her to model for a bridal shoot. Without any hint, the bride-to-be took the offer. The shoot was taken at the Le Vigne Winery in Paso Robles, CA and there couldn’t be any more perfect surprise vineyard proposal than this! The florist and HMUA were secretly hired too! Everyone was in on the surprise. While “practicing’ the first look, little did Chloe know Tristan was already on bended knee, ready to say, “Will you marry me?” Of course, she said “Yes!” It was the most perfect golden hour for the two!

Love is in the air! Well, today’s featured couple took their love literally in the air as they went up to the ice mountains for their helicopter engagement session. This has become just one of the many recent unique engagement ideas and being the adventurous couple they are, Sonia and Ryan did not shy away from doing such a new trend. Fun fact – it was their first helicopter flight ever! The future bride wore a gorgeous, blush, A-line dress from Luxx Nova with a light fabric that made it easy for her to walk in the snow.

Sea to Sky Gondola Wedding

Car — Wed, 13 Feb 2019 13:45:03 +0000

Let hearts flutter this month of February as we celebrate the warmth of love and romance! No doubt, everything has come full circle and this clearly shows that love is sweeter even in winter! This styled shoot is everything beautiful. From sky to sea, this gondola wedding of Batya and Andrew shows how much they love nature and the outdoors. I personally love the 360-degree view of the mountain, skyline, and jaw-dropping splendor of nature that made their wedding come to life. Come and take a look at these photos taken by Karizma Photography for even more inspo!

We’re All About the Details

One of their favorite places is the Sea-to-Sky Gondola and it was a perfect backdrop for their special day. With 360-degree views of mountains, skyline, and jaw-dropping nature make their wedding come to life. Along with choosing a place that meant so much to the couple, they personalized their celebration in more ways than one. Andrew’s wedding band was custom made and have the Tantalus mount range engraved in the design! This range is visible from the Sea-to-Sky Gondola and was such a beautiful connection to the couple. Not to mention that Batya’s ring also held special meaning too. Her ring was made from Moissanite which was a stone that was first discovered in a meteor crater! Turns out, there isn’t much of this material to be found naturally and it’s extremely rare! Rare beauty seems fitting for Batya. Not only did they choose exceptional jewelry for each other, but it was also environmentally friendly with their recycled gold bands. Their Sea to Sky Gondola Wedding started with a traditional Chinese tea ceremony followed by the wedding ceremony and then dinner with close friends and family and we had almost three full hours for their wedding photo session!

Rustic Bride on Little Acre Farm

Car — Wed, 30 May 2018 13:33:08 +0000

I am not even sure which one to talk about first, the gorgeous couple, or their beautiful wedding venue! Join us marvel at the details of Amber and Derek’s wedding that looks something right out of a country fairytale. These amazing photos taken by Jasmine White Photography are more than enough to let me skip a beat. The entire wedding was an absolute dream. Did I mention that their venue was amazing? The Little Acre Farm is so beautiful that I need to mention that twice! Seriously, this wedding is beyond rustic inspirations and the details are totally on a whole new level. So, don’t let me keep you because there’s more to love about this wedding as you scroll down below.

We’re All About the Details!

The Little Acre Farm is a new wedding venue located in Athens, West Virginia (just outside of Princeton). Couples who get married at this venue have a ceremony in front of a beautiful, duck-filled pond, with a big red barn in the background that is something right out of a country fairytale. The barn built on this lot was constructed specifically for wedding receptions and is gorgeous for a rustic bride.

The neighboring farm has horses that stood and watched the wedding as if they were guests and in the middle of the wedding they started to gallop through the field, and it was truly magical. And not only did the neighboring farm having beautiful horses, but Amber arrived to her ceremony in a horse drawn carriage and the night ended with fireworks – seriously something right out of a romance novel.

Adirondack Luxury Vintage Inspired Wedding

Car — Wed, 14 Mar 2018 08:39:39 +0000

Set in the lush Adirondack Mountains of NY, this styled shoot looks like it came straight out of a storybook! In this majestic place, birch trees and pine cones reign supreme but there is so much more from romantic to luxurious elements to inspire your wedding. And what better color to choose as the motif this season than the unfailingly romantic navy, gold, and pink? These awesome set of vendors wanted to bring back the old school romance of the Great Camp era and the influences of luxury that came with it. Inspired by rich colors, beautiful textures and a dash of gold, they highlighted the romance and love that can only be felt in the mountains. What a delightful sight with all the flowers and the whimsical details. Scroll down to see more photos from Julia Rebecca Photography! Enjoy!!

The gold flatware mixed with the dark rich woodenness and vibrant magenta florals added a dash of whimsey to the mood of the shoot. They wanted a feel of luxury with decadent gold rimmed glasses and rich fabrics.

Vietnamese Styled Wedding in the Mountains of Colorado

Car — Wed, 07 Feb 2018 15:00:51 +0000

Here in Elegant Wedding, we truly love cultural weddings! The ethnic heritage and symbolic traditional elements on top of the attractive overall aesthetics make these weddings grand and magnificent! Trust us when we say that every cultural wedding is uniquely inspiring in their own lovely way! Today, we have something beyond special! Jason and Sarah’s Vietnamese Style Wedding showcases not only their fun and intimate wedding celebration but also one of Colorado’s most beautiful destinations. Held in an alpine basin, it requires no decorating beyond what nature has provided. The place was ringed by the summits of the San Juan mountain range. Cascading Twin Falls, fed by snowmelt, offered a stunning backdrop to the ceremony as well as background ambient music. I could ramble forever about all the different details aside from their traditional Vietnamese Wardrobe but instead, I think you should have a look at Ben Eng Photography’s snaps for your firsthand impression! Enjoy!

We’re All About the Details!

They also incorporated ways to honor Sarah’s ethnic heritage, such as each of them wearing traditional Vietnamese ao dai and symbolizing unity through a shortened tea ceremony.The couple carefully stood among asters, columbines, bluebells, yarrow, roseroot, candytuft, and paintbrush of all colors. Shoulder-high larkspur edged the rocky paths.Their reception was held in town at the Secret Garden Bed & Breakfast and had fantastic landscaping, so all they had to do was decorate the underside of the dining tent with Asian paper lanterns and umbrellas in reds and yellows.Their DIY centerpieces involved vases from second-hand stores, mitsumata branches, and over 100 origami birds and butterflies folded by Sarah’s brother-in-law. Jason’s mother and father created the “Bride” and “Groom” signs for our dining chairs as well as a beautiful upholstered box to receive cards.

Take this Advice

Three pieces of planning advice: First, we cannot overstate the benefits of an engaged couple paying for the entire wedding themselves. If you host the wedding you can afford, each piece of it becomes that much more meaningful… and you have all the control. Second, if you’re going to choose one thing to splurge on, do it with the photography. The wedding day is a whirlwind, but a skilled photographer will capture specific moments and emotions you won’t even remember. Research their portfolios and interview potential photographers to find the style, personality, and work ethic that syncs with your expectations and budget. We spoke with three professionals before we chose to work with Ben Eng. We were (and still are) absolutely thrilled with his work! Lastly, the best decision we made was to host a casual Open House the evening before the actual wedding day. The original idea was that since this was a destination wedding, the Open House would provide incoming guests the chance to visit with us, see the next day’s reception venue, and get some grilled burgers and brats (on us). Given that it was a Friday in a popular summer destination, we didn’t want people to have to hunt for an available table after a long day of driving if they didn’t want to. However, after it was over, we realized the Open House actually benefited us more than the guests. Seeing our friends and family in this informal setting on the eve of the main event made us more relaxed going into the next day. It settled our nerves and made us realize that even if everything went wrong on the wedding day, everyone we loved was there for us. It was all going to be just fine. ~Ben Eng/Photographer
