How about starting your day with some straight up pretty with this classic blush and ivory wedding from Pepper Nix Photography! Stefani and Braedon planned a timeless, elegant wedding in romantic shades of rosy pink, cream, and taupe.
According to Stefani, the wedding design all centered around finding the perfect dress! Once she found her stunning champagne Justin Alexander lace gown at Bridal Expressions, the entire theme fell into place. Their choice of reception venue beautifully tied in with her vision for their day – Tuscany in Salt Lake City fully lived up to its namesake, with a courtyard of warm stone and lovely, old world architecture.
This relaxed and radiant couple juggled falling in love with their humanitarian work around the globe; when they were reunited after working separately in Cambodia and India, they both knew that they were ready to start an adventure together. Their easy-going nature carried into their wedding day – they chose to keep the wedding day traditions to a minimum and focus on enjoying their guests’ and each other – and the dancing!
Their wedding was truly a family affair – Stefani’s mother and future mother-in-law were an enormous part of the planning process, even down to helping with all of their crafted details. Stefani’s favorite were the hand-made bouquet charms her mother-in-law made, to represent the couple’s parents and grandparents – they hung from the trailing ribbons on her bouquet and she plans to make a charm bracelet with them! When Stefani’s search for the perfect pair of bridal shoes to complement her dream gown turned up fruitless, she stumbled across the perfect pair of relaxed and comfortable sandals in her mother’s closet. Her wedding day bracelet came from her mother’s closet as well, and a friend handmade Stefani’s pearl cluster earrings to match. Braedon had a hand in adorning his beautiful bride – he designed her wedding ring!

Hi Ariana! I know this is a long shot but… I am desperately looking for a dress for my wedding and came across your photo shoot with Stefani and Braedon. I currently live in Utah and noticed that this couple got married in the Salt Lake temple. Like everyone else, I love Stefani’s dress! Do you happen to know (or have a way to find out) if she is renting it out at all? Maybe you have contact information for her? Again, I know it’s a long shot but I figured it couldn’t hurt to ask (right?). Thank you in advance!
I’m sorry, I don’t have any way of contacting the couple, but you can find the designer and bridal salon in the Photo Credits at the bottom of the post!
This couple is just too cute! What a gorgeous venue for the reception.

Your dress is everything I’ve been looking for! Can I ask where you got it?
Hi Hailey! The designer and boutique where the bride purchased her dress are in the Photo Credits just above!
Who is the designer of the dress? Its the best ive ever seen! Exactly what im looking for!
So glad you like it! The dress was purchased and customized at Bridal Expressions but the exact designer was not disclosed. The dress shop can be found in the Photo Credits!
Handsome groom and stunningly, beautiful bride. I loved all the smiles in photographs. I also like that the photographer took detailed pictures of the dress, cake and tables. I think her dress was extremely beautiful! The whole wedding from start to finish was beautiful and well done! Did they have a planner or plan themselves only?
With respect to the dress the credits list the store Bridal Expressions but doesn’t give the designer. Would anyone happen to know the designer? I have looked through the Bridal Expressions website and could not find the dress.
I’m afraid that the only information I have is the shop that sold and customized the dress.
Another reader found the dress! It’s a customized version of a Justin Alexander gown, that you can find here!
Thanks very much!
Does anyone know the designer of the dress? I would love to find it.
Absolutely! The bridal shop where the dress was purchased and customized is in the Photo Credits!
