Intimate Winter Elopement

If you've always imagined an intimate, Winter wonderland for your wedding day, this outdoor Whistler elopement is sure to inspire you. 

When we first shared images of this beautiful wedding on Instagram, we had people inquire as to whether it was a styled editorial session. We can assure you this was a real wedding! Ailee and Gary said their vows in the company of three witnesses - the bride's brother, sister in-law, and their new baby. 

Private and personal, this couple worked with Best Day Ever to plan and design their dream destination wedding from their home in Santa Monica. It goes to show that a small wedding can be every bit as elegant and romantic as a large celebration.

Cable Knit Winter Inspiration

You may have seen this cozy Winter wedding inspiration pop up on a few of your favorite blogs, such as Style Me Pretty, Vale + Vine and Mountain Side Bride. 

Created by Best Day Ever Creative Events and captured by Christie Graham Photography, this editorial took place on a peaceful private residence in Pemberton, BC, and was filled with luxurious warm textures and an underlying cable knit theme that included sweaters, blankets, spools, a vintage Singer sewing table, and other knitting and sewing accessories. 

Muted tones of cream, grey, blush, navy and aquamarine were echoed in the palette of the natural, organic-styled florals which included a mix of Winter greens and delicate blooms such as magnolia, ranunculus, lisianthus, anemone, agapanthus and freesia. 

Enjoy the inspiration!
