An Intimate Elopement near Big Bend National Park styled wedding shoot that I have yet to show off on my blog. I’m currently in quarantine and there isn’t much to do during my days at home. So what better time to blog some older shoots that you haven’t shown off yet!?

This small wedding was located at the Lajitas Golf Resort near Big Bend National Park. The pops of blue and blush match the sky and the mountains surrounding the area, the textures of the mountains and florals make my creative mind very happy. Touches of figs and pomegranates were the perfect touch to the wedding details – we actually found a pomegranate tree on the property! Fig cocktails & fig lined cake really brought everything together.

My good friend Julian with Nava Floral did an amazing job with all the florals. Ruth with Seniman Calligraphy killed it with the beautiful invitations and vow books, her invitation suites are stunning! Bella Belle Shoes came in clutch with the beautiful bridal shoes. The Groom Chance wore a Tux from The Black Tux and the Bride Erica wore a stunning gown from Anna Campbell.

Intimate Elopements are currently all the rage, I hope this Intimate elopement near Big Bend has inspired you to have your own! With doing it this way, you can splurge more on details that make it more special on your day that you may not be able to afford on a wedding of 200 or more.

Tip: If you care about flat lays of your details (shoes, jewelry, wedding invitation..etc) ask your florist to leave a few loose buds to help add texture and color to your flat lay. Also, if you want those beautiful detailed invitation suites but don’t want to pay for all your guests to have those, reach out to calligraphers who will create one for you to have as a special memory and for your photographer to photograph it!

    I was looking at your Big Bend Elopement blog and wanted to know if those photos with the orange/green mountain were on the Lajitas Golf Resort property? We want to get married there but didn’t see that as a venue option and it looks BEAUTIFUL!
