Pink Ombre Barbie + Ken Dream Wedding Elopement | Texas + Destination Wedding Photographer

 

My childhood friends,Barbie (Nikki) and Ken, finally tied the knot after dating for, like, 50 YEARS! ‘Rona threw a wrench into their plans to get married in March, so they eloped! They had a beautiful ceremony in my backyard and included their cute little puppy.

They were a little stiff at first, but were able to loosen up πŸ˜‰

I had the best time designing their whole wedding! I made her dress, styled her hair, glued some earrings on, and made the circle arch (out of an embroidery hoop, a bush, and some paper flowers), bouquet, boutonniere, and the officiant’s dress.

I might have lost my mind just a leetle bit πŸ˜‚πŸ˜¬

I’ve been wanting to do something like this for YEARS, but it always got pushed to the back-burner! When ‘Rona wrecked my Spring wedding season I had no other excuses and nothing but time on my hands. So here we are!
