Ever since Chelsea of Chelsea Seekell Photography started shooting weddings eight years ago, she dreamt of planning her own style shoot. That dream fueled her hunt for the best locale while she collected treasured items along the way.

 






The specific, Michigan landscape Chelsea was in search of wasn’t just any beach or sand dune location—it needed to be a special place that would lend itself to the breathtaking desert, boho vibe she envisioned. Her hard work paid off when the perfect spot finally revealed itself. Chelsea says. “I wanted the vibe to feel very free-spirited and bohemian, and it turned out exactly as I envisioned!”

 





The stunning bride wore a ”Simone” by Flora Bridal dress from Ali Nicole Bridal in Grand Rapids. The relaxed, off-the-shoulder style, sweeping bell sleeves and lace detail are as alluring as the windswept landscape and bold, natural elements.

 





Desiring a colorful palette, Chelsea chose deep reds, oranges, yellows, a little dusty rose and greenery. Mirroring the wild and free look, she created a beautifully organic bouquet, a gorgeous, eclectic tablescape and infused an authentic Moroccan rug—the final details needed to complete the downright mesmerizing desert display.
