Neutral tones in this bridal bouquet – with a mix of fresh + dried flowers and greens from Moonstruck Florals. It’s a lovely compliment to the warm terra cotta + olive tones in the bride’s dresses and against the sandy canyon.

How cute is that?! So the story goes from the photo + design team: Edwin reached out to us after we asked him and Gabbie to model for our editorial shoot. He knew he planned to propose to Gabbie soon, and this seemed like the most opportune time. They would be dressed up so cute and have a photographer along for the ride. He suspected that Gabbie might have a bit of an inkling of his plans, so we waited until the very end of the shoot to keep her on her toes. We found a little secluded space in Providence Canyon where he proposed. Gabbie immediately knew what was happening and yelled “STOP!!” She cried and said yes! We were so thrilled to be part of such a beautiful day for the two of them.
