Intimate wedding in Zion National Park, Utah

Sharing my perspective of Jen’s iconic wedding in my Polaroid preset, because of course in typical Jen fashion, she left her camera out the day of for people to take pics… so of course I ran with it. 🎞️🌻🍊🌿🏞️

Jen planned every detail of her wedding: the venue, dress, unique thrifted cups as wedding favors, the table setup, the parasols, and all the details in between. She had each of her favorite girls wear a different bright color for the girls photoshoot. Each person had a parasol as well for the shoot. Jen went in the middle, and all the girls spun in a circle around her. It was MAGIC!

Jen’s wedding weekend

Jen planned to have all her favorite people stay with her in Zion National Park, for a whole wedding weekend. Everyone arrived on Thursday, and most people stayed until Sunday. We had so much fun hanging out the whole weekend, setting up outside for the wedding, exploring the park, and then all going to a lake outside of Las Vegas for swimming on the last day.

Jen not only had such amazing and unique ideas for her wedding, she has an incredible group of friends who helped her execute her plans the whole weekend. They all set everything up for the wedding day together with her family. They arranged all the flowers together, the food, lined up the chairs, tables and place settings. Everything was covered as a group, as if they were all on the Bigelow wedding planning team. It was so awesome to see such a loyal and loving group of friends.

Las Vegas swimming area

After Zion National Park, we all went swimming at this red rocks and lake area outside of Las Vegas. It was stunning clear blue waters, against the green grass and red rocks encircling the area. It was a perfect day to end the weekend. Being with Jen’s whole friend group the whole weekend made me feel like I was in a real life breakfast club, it was so much fun!
