Actor, activist, producer, and director Sophia Bush said &#8220;I do&#8221; to entrepreneur and real estate investor Grant Hughes on June 11 at the Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa. For her big day, she chose a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">whimsical, floral-print, balloon-sleeve gown by Monique Lhuillier that perfectly matched the lavish ceremony.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cFrom the moment we got engaged, I knew what I wanted my dress to be,\u201d Bush told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.com\/slideshow\/sophia-bush-tulsa-oklahoma-wedding\" target=\"_blank\"><i>Vogue<\/i><\/a>. \u201cI\u2019d seen a photograph of a Monique Lhuillier dress taken on Lake Como, and I had a vision of creating a personalized version of it, in what I have always thought of as a heritage print: a print of flowers from California, Oklahoma, and Italy, to honor the heritage of our families\u2014where we come from and how we are all coming together to map where we are going.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bush hopped on FaceTime calls with the designer to discuss the custom details. Lhuillier wrote on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CgAnBXqJl-6\/\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a>, \u201cSophia and I have a friendship that spans over several decades. I was honored to have been asked to design her wedding gown!

On this day, I wanted to represent us. Where we come from. Where we are going. Oklahoma tea roses for my husband and his family. Italian olives and branches for mine, and for what their offering signifies. California poppies for our home together. And our sweet, chunky bees, that we have cultivated together for years now. Colors pulled from sunsets and sunrises in his hometown and mine. An honoring of place, memory, and purpose. Printed in Italy. Sewn in California. Worn in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I will love this forever. What a day.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Styled by Kevin Michael Ericson, Bush opted for diamond floral earrings from Briony Raymond New York, tying in the blossom theme. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As for the accessories, Bush chose to wear only the earrings and her engagement ring. \u201cThe dress didn\u2019t need anything else,\u201d she said. \u201cWe finished the look with a pair of Monique Lhuillier heels in a perfect shade of pale, peachy pink.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Her hair was done by Matthew Collins, with her brunette locks slicked back into a classic bun. Makeup artist Afton Williams took care of Bush\u2019s natural, glowing glam. \u201cA blooming rose became our phrase to describe the look we were going for\u2014warm, romantic, and tender,\u201d the <em>Good Sam<\/em> actress said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The festivities began on Thursday, when friends and family gathered at Lowood restaurant for drinks and a bit of history. On Friday, the group took tours of historic Greenwood before attending a night-before soi<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">r\u00e9e<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> at Westhope, the historic property of Frank Lloyd Wright. Subscribing to a dress code of \u201celevated cowboy,\u201d Bush wore an ivory Roksanda Ilincic gown, with a Heron &amp; Pine Rae Rancher hat made all the more stylish topped off with a vintage sterling silver and turquoise hat band from Charlotte\u2019s in California. The bride adorned vintage Cartier diamond and turquoise earrings with an antique silver and turquoise concho belt and turquoise cuff. The groom wore a tuxedo for the night-before bash by F.E. Castleberry in a rustic terra-cotta hue, paying homage to the Oklahoma red earth. He accessorized his look with a Saint Laurent western bow tie and sported a vintage silver eagle lapel pin (also from Charlotte\u2019s) with antique silver thunderbird cufflinks. Hughes finished off his look with a Stetson Open Road Royal Deluxe hat.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CSZ5kVsCOHS\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
