The wild beauty of Alaska is on full display in this romantic and inspiring wedding shoot from Donna Marie Photography and Styled Shoots Across America! Heather Benge Events and Intrigue Designs took full advantage of the state known for beautiful peonies to dream up this pretty in pink shoot filled with colorful, ruffled flowers! The AK Diamond J Ranch outside Homer could not have been a more perfect spot to combine the rugged landscape and elegant event design all in one stunning wedding inspiration shoot!

When designing for an Alaskan wedding shoot, floral designer Intrigue Designs knew the focal flower had to be the peony! Alaska Beauty Peony provided locally sourced flowers in fuchsia, bold pink, blush, and white to create the stunning floral arrangements for the shoot, starting with the bride’s ombre cascade bouquet!
The styling team drew inspiration from the romantic qualities of the peonies to create the bride’s look – makeup artist Soigné by J. Seymour pulled a bold pink from the bride’s bouquet to give her a bright lip color, and hair stylist Kelsey Morris went for old-school femininity with a braided crown updo!
