This Night is Sparkling: Sophie & Nates “Enchanted” May Wedding

The day was a fairytale, Nate was the prince and Sophie gave us a wedding day to remember at the stunning Monson Center, and let me tell you, it was nothing short of enchanting!

Sophie and Nate first met in 2018 during their LDS missions, but it wasn’t until January 2023 that they reconnected. Nate reached out to Sophie on Instagram and invited her to his best friend’s wedding as his date. That first date was unforgettable, with people constantly asking if Sophie was Nate’s wife, making their first date very public but special. They got engaged on November 14, 2023, which was a complete surprise. Although Sophie had an idea it was coming, Nate went above and beyond by flying out her mom and sisters, making the moment incredibly romantic. Now, attending friends’ weddings holds a special place in their hearts, always reminding them of their own magical beginning.

Sophie & Nate started the morning off with a sealing at the Draper temple followed by a ring ceremony & reception at the Monson Center. The day was classy, fun and so romantic as there wasn’t a dry eye in the audience as Nate shared his vows to Sophie. Sophie is a true Taylor Swift lover, and Nate surprised Sophie by having Taylor Swift lyrics sprinkled throughout his vows.

The Monson Center, a historic Victorian mansion, was a perfect place to bring to life Sophie’s wedding vision. Their ring ceremony took place in front of the Monson Center and honestly looked like it was straight out of a Taylor Swift music video.

During the ceremony, we had a live harpist playing in the background which really brought out the perfect atmosphere for this day.

After the ceremony, we had everyone enter into the Monson center for social hour with a live singer and delicious appetizers from Brown Brothers catering. After dinner, we started dancing and Sophie stunned everyone with her beautiful ballgown and choreographed first dance! Sophie & Nate’s love shined bright all night and everyone teared up once again when Nate sang Sophie a song. They danced the night away and we ended the enchanting evening with a bubble send off!

Nate and Sophie truly know what marrying your best friend is and we wish them all the happiness in the world! We hope they never “go out of Style”.

Client Review:
Ruby was the absolute BEST to work with. After our first meeting with her, I knew we had to work with her for our wedding dreams to come true. Throughout wedding planning and the wedding day Ruby went above and beyond. To me, she felt like one of my best friends, truly listening to my needs, concerns, and stressors. She completely lightened the load to ensure that we had the best day possible. Through our meetings, she would ensure that we were on top of what we needed to check off lists and things we needed to consider. Ruby and her team were a model of professionalism, efficiency, and class. The day of the wedding Ruby and her team took care of all of our needs and ensured that my husband and I were able to soak in all of our special moments. I could not recommend hiring Red Canyon Events for your wedding!
