It’s hard to come up with a more romantic time to get engaged than the holidays – everyone in their festive best, trees and candlelight everywhere – and Brock took things to the next level by proposing to Megan while they posed as bride and groom for this stunning shoot at Rivercrest Farm! Megan thought they were just modeling for a holiday engagement shoot, only to be stunned when her boyfriend got down on one knee! Planner Mycha Michelle designed a picture perfect holiday proposal, complete with a stunning emerald green dress for the bride-to-be. This newlywed pair will have photos captured by Loren Jackson Photography to treasure always!
The rich color of evergreens inspired the color palette for this shoot, pairing emerald with shimmering gold for a glamorous winter palette!
This beautiful emerald cut engagement ring from Anne Marie’s Fine Jewelry is just a preview for later…
The fresh white walls and wood trim at Rivercrest Farm in Dover, OH, inspired Mycha Michelle and Paper Twigs to dress it in winter greenery, twinkling lights, and green velvet – starting with that incredible staircase!
Megan and Brock looked picture perfect for a glam holiday engagement – the emerald green velvet gown from Dillard’s perfectly combined the cozy and luxe feel they were going for.
Although Megan thought they were just posing for photos, she knew something was different the vow notebook from Gold Leaf Calligraphy had a letter written to her from Brock. When Loren Jackson Photography gave her the cue to turn around, Brock had gotten down on one knee to ask her to marry him! This stunning styled shoot turned into a surprise proposal and Megan was only too happy to say yes!
The newly engaged couple celebrated with these shots from Loren Jackson Photography that they will treasure forever – and Megan showed off her new status with a custom mug from An Awaited Adventure!
Back in the warmth and welcome of indoors, the elves had been busy setting this glamorous Sweetheart table. Gold sequins, green velvet, greenery, and deer antlers combined in a rustic and woodsy tablescape filled with winter charm!
To create the perfect winter wonderland centerpiece, Paper Twigs combined white roses and veronica stems with gold magnolia leaves, evergreen, and viburnum berries. The gorgeous arrangement sat on a runner of gold sequins, with a pair of ethically sourced deer antlers to add a woodland touch.
Pinecones, presents, and floral hoops adorned this dessert card with treats from In the Mix Bakery! The lovely watercolor wedding cake was the sweetest way to celebrate, but the adorable Christmas cookies nearly stole the show!
These statement chandelier earrings with emerald green stones were perfect with the strapless scoop neckline on Megan’s engagement dress! Sarah Delaine Beauty showed them off by fixing Megan’s platinum hair in a romantic swideswept updo, while makeup artist Sarah Delaine Beauty gave her the perfect holiday glam look with a berry lip and smokey eyes!
What Christmas engagement would be complete without a tree! Smith Evergreen Tree Farm made sure there was no shortage, dressing the outdoor fireplace with an array of evergreens. The glow of candles and Edison string lights illuminated the couple as they took their first engaged shots in front of the old stone mantel!
