A dream wedding inspired by the most timeless details in Twilight
Leah and Rey’s story began as classmates in Vancouver, where friendship quietly blossomed into something more years later. After reconnecting through a simple text, their bond reignited effortlessly, leading to a long-distance relationship and, ultimately, a heartfelt proposal on Christmas Day near their university campus. Their wedding at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu was nothing short of a fairytale planned with the help of Amormagic and captured by Shmily Wedding. Inspired by the romance of Twilight and the charm of nature, the couple exchanged vows under a canopy of cascading white wisteria courtesy of Wenfloral Design with a natural waterfall as the backdrop.

Bridal style: timeless lace
Leah was stunned in a strapless lace gown with a cathedral veil and carried a bouquet of white florals and wild greenery.
Classic black [bow]tie
The bridesmaids wore soft sage dresses that blended beautifully into the woodland setting, while Rey donned a classic black-[bow]tie style.
Natural Twilight-inspired setting
The ceremony took place under an installation of hanging white wisteria accented by wood chairs and an aisle of lush wildflower-inspired arrangements.
