With this shoot, the team at Lovely & Planned was striving for an elopement setting that chic, modern couples with a penchant for vintage details can identify with. To create this modern yet classic and feminine aesthetic, they combined geometric forms with delicate fabrics and a soft, elegant color palette with amber hues and blush pink accents.

Only an hour away from the bustling city center of Dubai lies the majestic Red Sand Desert with its golden dunes and rugged hills in the distance. While this city is known for its luxury and ultramodern architecture, this styled shoot created a breathtaking ambiance, highlighting the possibilities Dubai has to offer for small, intimate weddings.

The modern and romantic bride was dressed in a delicate dress with a beaded train from Ginger + Poppy Bridal. Sonia Abad created a makeup look with natural, dewy skin, warm cheeks, and a light smokey eye with a touch of gold—a perfect match to the handmade statement headpiece. The blush pink heels with their pearl embroidery and organza bow were also carefully chosen to complement the feminine bridal look, topped off with minimalistic rose quartz earrings. The groom’s attire was an equal eye-catcher with his handmade Italian linen suit and luxurious soft yellow jacket.
