There are some love stories that feel like they were always meant to be art, and then there are the ones that quite literally become it. Mabry, a wedding florist whose work has long brought beauty to other people’s days, stepped into her own story with Gabriel in a way that felt both deeply intentional and effortlessly true to who they are. I had the honor of capturing these stunning spring wedding colors through documentary style photography, and I am so excited to share all the artistry from this day below.
The day before they said “I do,” bouquets weren’t just delivered. They were dreamed up, designed, and brought to life by Mabry and a handpicked team of the very creatives she’s worked alongside for years at her company The Flowered Blue. And at the center of it all, of course, was the bouquet she created for herself! It was much more than just florals. It was something that held pieces of her story, her hands, and her heart. This isn’t just a wedding day. It’s the unfolding of a story we’ve been documenting from the very beginning—and it only gets more meaningful from here.






Mabry and Gabriel met in a way that felt almost unassuming at first, the kind of beginning you could easily overlook if you didn’t know what it would become. But what unfolded was intentional and deeply rooted, built on friendship, on showing up, on choosing each other long before a ring was ever involved. By the time Gabriel asked her to marry him (on a rain-soaked day that somehow felt cinematic in all the right ways, I’m still not over it) it was already clear that this wasn’t a fleeting kind of love. It was the kind that lingers and weaves itself into every part of your life—rain or shine.
Every session we documented along the way to celebrate the anticipation and excitement has always pointed back to this: a love that was never rushed, never forced, but fully, wholeheartedly chosen.






Mabry’s artistry doesn’t begin on a wedding day, it’s something she’s been refining and pouring herself into through her work with The Flowered Blue. What makes her so special isn’t just her eye for color or her ability to design something visually stunning (though she does, effortlessly). It’s the way she approaches florals and spring wedding colors as a form of storytelling. Every stem feels chosen with intention and layered with meaning.
She has this rare ability to listen, to truly see the people in front of her, and then translate their story into something tangible and alive. It’s why her work feels less like décor and more like an extension of the couple themselves. And on her own wedding day, that same care didn’t just show up in the designs—it was woven into every piece of the process, every collaboration, every quiet moment leading up to it. Because for Mabry, this has never just been about flowers. It’s about people. And it always has been.






Getting to document a day like this felt deeply personal to me, because the way Mabry approaches her work is the same way I approach mine. It’s never just about what something looks like, it’s about what it holds. The meaning, the people, the moments that would otherwise pass by unnoticed. From the very beginning, I’ve believed that your story deserves to be told in a way that feels honest and artful all at once. Unposed where it matters, intentional where it counts, and always rooted in who you truly are. Watching Mabry pour that same heart into her own wedding day, after years of doing it for others, was something I don’t take lightly. These are the kinds of stories I feel most connected to—the ones that are lived fully and cherished for generations.
