As ready as we are for spring and warm weather, we couldn’t pass up this incredible post-wedding session in the ice and snow. Heather and Ethen’s Salt Lake City wedding took a little detour when photographer Tony Gambino brought the couple to the Bonneville Salt Flats for a romantic newlyweds photo session. Ethen, a renowned BMX rider, even brought along his bike for some thrilling portraits alongside his gorgeous bride.
In addition to these truly awesome images, Tony Gambino beautifully captured the elegance and romance of the entire wedding day in Heather and Ethen’s wedding film:
Ally and John’s dreamy garden wedding was inspired by the romanticism of Jane Austen and the natural beauty of The Oregon Golf Club. Wedding planner and designer Bridal Bliss achieved Ally and John’s wedding vision with delicate feminine details like tulle and lace with lush green garlands. The “G” monogram hanging above the newlyweds table over the reception was the perfect accent for being both elegant and reflective of Ally and John’s special day.
The overall inspiration for our wedding day was a romantic, elegant, garden affair. We chose a neutral color palette of ivory, cream, and blush accented with lush green garlands. The garden we married in provided the perfect backdrop for our vision. For the reception, we brought the outdoors in by adding dripping hops to the chandeliers of the tent and a lush organic “G” monogram above our head table. After choosing a garden venue, I wanted my dress to reflect that organic texture. I ultimately chose a tulle and lace gown that possessed all the romanticism of a Jane Austen novel. It was exactly what I hoped for.
The Moments:
Our favorite moment from the wedding was when we turned around at the altar to face our loved ones and were finally announced husband and wife. Walking back up the aisle and seeing all our family and friends cheer and celebrate us was such a beautiful moment. We will never forget it!
The Couple Recommends:
Our wedding coordinator Katy from Bridal Bliss went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was nothing short of perfection. I would recommend Katy and Bridal Bliss to anyone planning a wedding. You may not think you need a planner but you really, really do! It was the best money we spent as they provided us with the best lists of vendors, negotiated prices, organized every detail of each contract, ensured the day ran smoothly, and helped take our wedding from a vision to a reality. It was so fun working with Katy as she brought so much knowledge and expertise packaged in a positive, glowing attitude. Our photographer, Ben Pigao, was also phenomenal to work with. Not only is he incredibly talented, he is extremely easy going and really respects the intimacy of your wedding day. He is able to capture the most personal, meaningful pictures without you even realizing he is there. His photos speak for themselves but I would recommend him to any couple.
A special thanks to Bridal Bliss for sharing Ally and John’s beautiful wedding at The Oregon Golf Club with Junebug! For more wedding inspiration from Oregon, be sure to check out Courtney and Clayton’s garden wedding in Oregon at Duckridge Farm.
Laid-back couple Regina and Rob found inspiration for their wedding in Maine in the vintage styles and rustic atmosphere of Sprague Hall. The romantic day was filled with lavender accents in wild, overgrown bouquets carried by the bride and her bridesmaids, as well as in Rob’s accessories. Sunglow Photography truly lived up to his name by capturing the most enchanting light as the couple spent their first moments together as husband and wife.
We tried to incorporate natural, vintage, romantic, and rustic concepts into our wedding décor. Generally, Rob and I are pretty laid-back and we wanted something that reflected our personalities.
The Moments:
During the ceremony we held hands and just looked at each other. At that moment it felt like we were the only two people in the room.
The Couple Recommends:
Our wedding was mostly DIY, but our photographer, Dustin Prickett from Sunglow Photography, was remarkable. We couldn’t be happier with the way our photos turned out! Not only is Dustin a great guy, but he captured all the special moments from the day. He had great artistic vision and an uncanny ability to know when and where during all the chaos. He truly went above and beyond and we would wholeheartedly recommend his services.
