GETTING READY
Ben + Samantha began their day with handwritten love letters to each other. What a sweet way to begin their lives together!
Samantha’s Hair + Makeup has a simply beautiful vibe! The amazing @brandtbeauty + @thomastimes brought out all of her natural beauty + light. Sometimes it is the simplest things that make a day magical.
FIRST LOOK
These two had the sweetest first look admist the gorgeous scenery of Zion National Park. First, looks are the perfect opportunity to take a moment with your lover + envision your lives meshing into one! Not to mention, you capture tender moments like these ones! This is a sweet touch that can be done in a bridal session or before your ceremony.
DETAILS
Signage is the perfect way to direct your guests in a beautiful way! Black Julep Studio created timeless pieces for Samantha + Ben’s day! Signs allow guests to understand different rules + expectations for your day without any questions asked! (For example, and unplugged ceremony.) This can save you a lot of time in the long run.
Cocktail Hour Details – Who says you need a full bar? Sometimes less is more.
Ceremony Final Touches. This desert ceremony is perfectly set with boho rugs, pampas grass, + a triangle arch. St. George Party Rentals is a Pinterest board come to life! From tables to arches, everything you can imagine, they have!
THE CEREMONY
Their sweet grandma shared a scripture with Ben + Samantha.
One of my favorite things about elopements is that the couple can add SO many personal touches. Whether that is a friend as your officiant, a wedding in the middle of Zion National Park, or eloping with just you + your lover, it’s up to you!
THE RECEPTION
The Perfect Intimate Dinner. Designed and put together by Forevermore Events. The wonderful food was provided by Padre Canyon Foods. Padre Canyon Foods drove out to Sam and Ben’s wedding, set up their portable catering equipment, and provided a DELICIOUS meal for Ben + Sam and their guests.
Hiring a catering company is another way to save time + energy on your day! You are in good, professional hands!
Feeding each other cake is definitely a crowd favorite. Don’t like cake? No worries! There is a plethora of other dessert options; doughnuts, cookies, macaroons etc.
Lazalu is located just outside of Zion National Park and it is the perfect venue with an amazing backdrop, however, it is also perfect once the sun goes down! Moonlit dinner and dancing, what could be better?
THE EXIT
Sparkler exits have become a wedding staple, and we aren’t even mad about it! The topless Jeep adds to the fun of the night.
Here’s to forever Ben + Sam!
