A Refined Western Wedding: Styled Photo Shoot with Our Wedding Magazine



Refined rustic bridal bouquet by Visual Impact Design | Emik Nikora Wedding Photographers

Bridal bouquet featuring anemone, roses, stock, ranunculus, brunia, scabiosa pods, dusty miller, eucalyptus leaves & bark.

Mountains, ranches, horses, cowboys – what's not to love about the country? Being that we are a florist located in the heart of Northern California, it's a setting we're lucky to be familiar with. In fact we love everything western – from our favorite of pair of funky, worn out cowboy boots, to lofty barn ceilings from which to hang beflowered chandeliers (to see some examples click here). So it was no surprise to admit we were excited to collaborate with Our Wedding Magazine on an equestrian-themed wedding styled photo shoot. Time to dust off those boots…

We worked with a crew of talented wedding vendors to bring this wedding to you, including, a gorgeous couple and a beautiful horse! Emik Nikora Wedding Photographers captured these gorgeous photos at The Murieta Inn & Spa. Refined western styling & design was perfectly envisioned by A Dazzling Day Weddings…by Darcie.

A gorgeous floral table runner that looks good enough to eat! Artichokes and ornamental kale are intertwined with roses, hydrangea, stock, dusty miller, eucalyptus, eryngium, jasmine and scabiosa. Brunia pods add a touch of whimsy to the napkin rings.

An elegant cake definitely adds the "refined" to Western. Simple ivory tiers with gold details and accents designed by Pretty Sweet. Scattered roses and jasmine cuttings soften the rustic cake stand.
