Express Printing elevated the day's design by crafting a stunning black and white invitation featuring an elegant script font. The beauty of the wild outdoors and wildlife was incorporated into the envelope liner, while buffalo and cowhide details added a rustic, authentic touch to the suite. Hand-torn edges and leather cord detailing added rich texture, enhancing the rustic yet refined feel.

To add a personal touch, Express Printing designed a custom emblem for the couple, which was carried into their welcome sign to create a cohesive aesthetic.



Embracing a rich color palette of black, white, beige, rust, and pale pink, B-Style Floral & Gifts masterfully crafted a natural boho atmosphere with a moody Western twist. Their stunning and impactful floral arrangements added depth and texture to the design, from the ceremony to the reception and beyond.

Showcasing a love for unique organics, the bride's bouquet featured a genuine quartz crystal handle, adding elegance and modernity. Using pampas grass, dried palms, roses, anthurium, and more, B-Style Floral & Gifts brought the dark and dramatic shoot to life, infusing every space with their distinctive artistry.



The bride wore a beautiful gown from Brides N' Belles that was a captivating blend of Western charm, bohemian whimsy, and gothic elegance. The plunging neckline exuded sophisticated sensuality, while the intricate lace design added a touch of vintage romance. Flowing bell sleeves also contributed movement and whimsical flair. To complete the look, fringed cowboy boots brought a rugged yet stylish finish to the ensemble.

The groom embraced the Western spirit with a black cowboy hat, a custom belt and buckle, and trusty cowboy boots. Paired with a classic white dress shirt and black suspenders from Brides N' Belles, he was ready for the evening's celebrations.



The bride's hair and makeup look from Melanin Beauty Bar perfectly complemented the day's themes. She wore a sultry, smoky eye look that added a dramatic and captivating allure to her gaze, and her hair was styled in a high braided ponytail with loose, curled strands to create an effortless and elegantly chic effect.



AliLou Events' rental items elevated the wedding design with their curated selection of unique pieces, ranging from furniture to textiles, vases, and more, that beautifully enhanced each space.
