Into the Snow: Ethereal Winter Wedding Inspiration Featuring a Yak!

Yak Winter Inspiration

Have you ever seen wedding inspiration featuring a yak? We’ve seen a lot, but that’s definitely a first for us! In the city of Hyrum, Utah sits the Old White Church — which alone, is gorgeous — but add in a blanket of fresh snow, and it becomes downright enchanting. We’re talking fairytale level magic here, folks! Photographer Calli Richards teamed up with florist, Dahlia Event Planning, plus these two lovebirds to capture all the mystifying wonder of this winter landscape…

Let’s take a peek, shall we?

What better way to contrast the wintry whites than by a bold bouquet with deep red tones? Dahlia Event Planning absolutely nailed it with the addition of antique tea roses, anemones and the pink protea!
