Sunset Ranch Hawaii set the stage for an editorial brimming with captivating beauty—everywhere you looked, there were enchanting details to admire. The bride’s three unique looks, statement accessories, and the effortless elegance of her bridesmaids created a story that was both stylish and full of personality. Theel Wedding Productions captured every fleeting moment turning them into timeless inspiration.
Concept Behind the Shoot
With planning and design by JXC Events, this shoot embraced the natural beauty of its surroundings with a fresh and lighthearted approach. Every detail played a role, from the repurposed decor that transitioned smoothly from ceremony to reception to the vintage-inspired umbrellas that framed the vows before becoming part of the evening’s ambiance. Ari at Theel Wedding Productions, as both the photographer and stylist, collaborated closely with the planner to create a setting that was both visually captivating and functional. The result was an editorial that combined modern style with the relaxed charm of an outdoor celebration.
"Instead of elaborate, inaccessible concepts, the goal was to present thoughtful design elements that real couples could incorporate into their own wedding day."
Fashion
The bride showcased three stunning looks, each with its own personality and charm. For the ceremony, she wore a taffeta A-line gown by Eleanor’s Bridal, featuring modern cutouts and a detachable cape, striking a perfect balance between bold and romantic. Later, she changed into a corset by Immoral London, paired with flowing lace separates, creating an ethereal yet structured look ideal for intimate moments. The final look embraced an after-party aesthetic—a bow-adorned mini dress styled with pearl-accented heels. This playful transition piece captured the essence of a modern reception look: effortless, chic, and perfect for a champagne toast under twinkling candlelight.
Her beauty look, created by Reveal Hair and Makeup, was soft and radiant, with waves and dewy skin. The styling remained natural yet polished, allowing each fashion choice to shine while keeping a romantic aesthetic.
One special detail was the hand-painted purse by Michelle Clemen, a unique piece that added a personal touch to the bride’s look. Hand-painted accessories are a subtle and meaningful trend, giving brides a chance to include something truly one-of-a-kind in their wedding style. Whether as a future heirloom or a keepsake from the day, these custom pieces are a beautiful way to add personality and artistry to a bridal ensemble.
The bridesmaids added their own touch of charm, dressed in soft pastel gowns that felt so elegant. Each had a unique silhouette and a fairytale vibe. The bridesmaids completed their looks with delicate hair accessories, including sweet little bows that added a playful, charming touch. It was those small details that made their style feel even more put together and beautiful.
Ceremony
Beneath the towering trees of Sunset Ranch Hawaii, the ceremony setting felt straight out of a dream. Soft floral arrangements by Earth’s Laugh Floral, with garden roses and trailing greenery, blended effortlessly into the landscape, adding a touch of romance without overpowering the natural beauty.
To bring in a vintage flair, fringed yellow umbrellas were scattered throughout the space. Not only did they provide shade, but they also added a playful, nostalgic feel that tied everything together. As guests arrived, the setting invited them to slow down, soak in the serene surroundings, and get ready for a heartfelt exchange of vows.
After the ceremony, a cozy lounge area awaited, designed for guests to sip prosecco and snap a few celebratory portraits. A chic white bar, framed by delicate florals, created the perfect spot for a relaxed toast.
Reception Design & Decor
As the sun set, the reception space transformed into a scene straight from a Pinterest board. Ambient Rentals and Designed with Aloha curated a dreamy setup with wooden chairs, soft linens, and vintage glassware.
The tables were adorned with delicate floral arrangements by Earth’s Laugh Floral, featuring a mix of garden roses and lush greenery that spilled effortlessly across the table. Thoughtfully chosen stationery by Inked Paper Co., with handwritten calligraphy menus and personalized name cards, added a bespoke touch, making each place setting feel extra special.
"Wedding stationery is more than just paper—it’s a work of art that sets the tone for the day."
Cake & Champagne Finale
The night wrapped up with pure joy and a little old-school glamour. Mana Cakes Hawaii designed a vintage-inspired cake, decorated with delicate piping and fresh cherries. And of course, a champagne tower—one of the most photogenic moments of any wedding. It’s always a showstopper—bubbly, glamorous, and full of energy. Guests gathered around as the couple poured the first glass, setting the tone for a night of toasts, laughter, and unforgettable memories.
This editorial proved that wedding design isn’t about over-the-top details but about thoughtful choices that make every moment feel special. From repurposed decor to carefully planned transitions, it was all about creating a celebration that felt beautiful and deeply personal. Thanks to the vision of Theel Wedding Productions and the expert planning of JXC Events, every element flowed together seamlessly, making the day feel both stylish and heartfelt.
