Artifact-Inspired Elopement in Zion National Park

Inspired by the Native American pottery + artifacts that his family used to collect on hikes, Tyler of Tyler Rye Photography planned a shoot full of relic and whimsy during one of his annual photography workshops. His wife created the bride’s necklace from broken pieces of pottery and Zion National Park provided the most magical background! Handing the camera duties over to Megan at Hazel & Lace Photography, Megan captured the dreamy designs by Forever More Events and sweet romance between Bree + Andrew.

Let’ see how it all came together!

Love this alter idea! Especially if you’re planning an elopement, this can be easily set up for some major impact.

WOW. Summer picnic goals, anyone?!

So, so dreamy!

And to top it all off, this pottery-inspired cake by Cupcakes! by Julie is GORG! Thanks to Megan and the crazy talented team for sharing this beautiful shoot with us!
