Twilight Inspired Woodsy Pine Hills Cibodas Wedding

April 4, 2023 | justine

Jeffry and Febiola’s love for the Twilight movie led them to tie the knot in an enchanting woodland landscape. And to say they made the right choice would be an understatement. Surrounded by the enchanted forest, cascading lush white florals, and the romantic glow of candles, their Pine Hills Cibodas wedding was just as stunning as it was fun!

Choosing the right location to recreate the movie’s iconic wedding scene was crucial, and the pair did not disappoint. The natural beauty of their venue made for a picturesque backdrop to their ceremony and reception. The neutral color palette, spectacular arrangements, and romantic lighting made the open space feel intimate and upped the romantic vibe. And on top of that, the firework fountains that lit up during their first dance were the highlight of the evening. Talk about a sparkling moment.

The couple ensured that their wedding was a celebration of their love and an unforgettable experience for all their guests–and they achieved exactly that. If you and your partner are thinking of saying “I do” among the trees, like in a Twilight fairytale, scroll through these incredible images captured by Tania Salim. You won’t want to miss this.

The Couple:

Jeffry and Febiola

The Wedding:

Pine Hills Cibodas, Indonesia

How Their Pine Hills Cibodas Wedding Came To Be

We chose the venue because it was inspired by the Twilight movie, with a vibe that matched its romantic atmosphere. The location was nestled in the woods, providing a stunning view. And we chose an earth-tone color scheme for the dress code to complement the natural surroundings.

Gin in the Woods and Mini Black Label Gifts Made Their Celebration Extra Special

Our ceremony was fun because everyone was fully immersed in the celebration. We mingled everywhere and enjoyed drinking gin in the woods, which created a unique and memorable experience. As a token of our appreciation,  because we love alcohol, we gifted mini Black Label bottles to our guests.

Wedding Planning Advice: Choose A Vendor Team That Understands Your Wedding Vision

Your wedding day only happens once in a lifetime, so making careful choices is essential. One of the most crucial vendor selections we made was our photographer, as they capture the memories that will last a lifetime.
