Colorful Latin Wedding Inspiration

September 13, 2018

Today we have colorful Latin wedding inspiration for you all! We love the vibrant color story and unique cultural elements woven into this design. This styled shoot was focused on celebrating the Latin American wedding and features one of our fave photographers, Photography by Marirosa! The team behind this styled shoot wanted to bring together their culture, sounds, traditions, colors and more. All of the amazing vendors who participated showcased not only their talents but their focus on inclusion of the Latin traditions in weddings.

For the tablescapes they brought in Mexican talavera plates and platters. They combined these with a variety of Latin American food. From ceviche to tamales, margaritas to guacamole, our mouths are watering. Just look at that amazing spread! Talk about yum. The flowers throughout the day are gorgeous and bright as well! The focus on the strong colors and greens is so unique. We love that they brought in the dark fuschia, orange, and other colors representing the culture.

And why have one cake when you can have two? The wedding cake focused on brighter colors of the overall design, with a splash of Mexican flair. The groom’s cake, on the other hand, features an old school car. How cool is that?! Thank you to Photography by Marirosa for sharing this latin inspired wedding shoot with us today!

Geometric Modern Minimalist Wedding Inspiration

September 6, 2018

Geometric touches are all the rage for wedding day design and décor. Today’s modern minimalist wedding inspiration features an abundance of these touches and we are not complaining! The copper wedding inspiration woven throughout the shoot can be found in the tablescape décor, the paper goods, the chair choice and even all over the dessert table! We love how sleek modern lines make up the second tier of the off center cake and tie into the vessels holding the delicious macarons.

The ceremony arch features copper hurricanes, set in the corners. Wispy greenery and delicate white florals also cover the aforementioned ceremony piece. These accents tie into the tablescape design as well. The sweetheart table is simple, modern, and romantic all at the same time; the organic florals and stone charger just adding to the natural, minimalist ambiance. Thank you to Zaida Gonzalez Photography for sharing this unique wedding inspiration with us today!

Industrial Meets Tropical Wedding Inspiration

August 23, 2018

We’ve confirmed it; you no longer need sand between your toes, a warm beach breeze or the sound of crashing waves to pull off the tropical wedding vibe! Sarah Aaron from Sarah Aaron Photography and Aly Smith from Satin & Sage Events, wanted to create a shoot that “married” a modern industrial Annapolis venue with the tropics. And we think they nailed it. This industrial meets tropical wedding inspiration looks like one we want to recreate!

Prism in Annapolis was the perfect location for this tropical urban wedding inspiration! With it’s industrial style, all white walls and white washed hard wood floors, it is the ideal blank canvas. And the color palate consists of a plethora of colors, befitting the tropical vibe. Green, fuchsia, orange, ivory and black with accents of copper and gold dominate the scene. The overall aesthetic really came to life with help from the amazing florals, as well as the sleek black farm table.

The unique reception table features teak wood charges, brown bottle “bud vases” and tons of copper accents woven throughout the florals and decor. A copper arch, modern and textured Wilderly Bride dress, and wicker chairs bring the whole look together. We are obsessed with the stacked acrylic box table assignments. How unique are those?! They’re filled with tropical greenery, tying each design element into this simple piece. A big thank you to Sarah Aaron Photography for sharing this urban tropical wedding inspiration with us today!

Romantic Ginger Jar Wedding Inspiration

August 16, 2018

Happy Thursday everyone! You’ve almost made it through the week. Are you getting married this weekend? Or attending a wedding in the DC area? It seems to be quite the popular one! With a date like 8/18/18 we can see why. To lead you into your weekend (tomorrow is practically a weekend day, right?) we have some beautiful, elegant ginger jar wedding inspiration. The whole shoot is classically beautiful with fluffy florals, soft blues, and nautical touches. We’re swooning!

This beautiful venue, located right on the Chesapeake Bay is the perfect setting for an intimate outdoor wedding. When Little Choptank Weddings opened, their main goal was to help couples keep their wedding day simple and stress free without sacrificing anything. They are firm believers that simplicity keeps the focus on the Bride and Groom. This styled shoot was designed around just that. Simple, elegant and nautical. The chinoiserie vases and plates along with the fluffy white florals provided the perfect touch to the simple yet elegant theme. Thank you to Emily Ann Photography for sharing this beautiful nautical wedding inspiration with us today.

Moody Industrial Chic Wedding Inspiration

August 9, 2018

The Historic Hofheimer is a newer venue to the scene in the Richmond wedding industry. Previously known as the “Hofheimer Fine Rug Company” the space is now characterized as one of Richmond’s rare examples of “Exotic-Revival style” architecture. The talented team involved in today’s edgy wedding inspiration was inspired by the artsy industrial vibe of the building. It boasts original wood rafters and floors, a beautiful skylight centerpiece, exposed brick walls, and a massive rooftop with eclectic views of Richmond. The Hof’s historic charm and casual, funky atmosphere make it a unique place offering something a little different when it comes to a Virginia wedding venue.

The vision unfolds a story of a modern, eclectic, fun loving “RVA” couple, Asher and Wren, as their adventure begins. Favorites from the day include the donut display from Sugarshack, a Richmond FAVE and the sweetheart table design. The unique paper goods were too good as well! From custom coasters to the invitation suite, we loved all of the wood accents and fun calligraphy. A big wow factor from this styled shoot would have to be the hanging floral installation; the ceremony set in the round surrounded the design. We love how it accented the space and kept in step with the industrial, moody vibe of the day! Thank you to Belles & Whistles for sharing this moody industrial chic wedding inspiration with us today!

Un Mariage en Provence: French Wedding Inspiration

July 25, 2018

Un Mariage en Provence: French wedding inspiration is a take on a traditional French wedding brought to the States. Traditional French weddings and the beauty of intimate gatherings in the countryside inspired today’s team. The effortless feel of the bride, the classy elegance in the decor, and the integration of family heirlooms were all elements Jade & Joy Events felt were important to bring into their styled wedding inspiration. Everything solidified in their minds once strolling across the grounds of Antrim 1844. The unabashed natural elements of the estate completely won them (and us!) over.

Following the traditional wedding ceremony in the Mayor’s office, the bride steals away for a quiet moment with her husband before switching gowns and having an intimate gathering with close family and friends. The main theme of the florals was lavender. As common as a bush along a path, lavender is prevalent throughout this wedding inspiration. It is used as a garnish on plates, the perfect addition to centerpieces, the right touch to an evening’s cocktail. Therefore, it was important they highlight it’s elegance and simplicity.

Authentic by Frani created something truly personal and intimate for this shoot. She created each of the fabric and wedding stationery elements herself; they were patterned based upon the lavender theme and the desired effortless feel. The hand-drawn elements completed the lavender invitation suite perfectly. Frani also decided to use fabric for the sweetheart chairs and the welcome sign, instead of the traditional wooden or glass signs. This was to further illustrate the overarching feel of intimacy. No traditional French wedding is complete without the inclusion of a croquembouche. Pâtisserie Poupon was the perfect boulangerie to complete this task, as the head baker is French himself. The additional sugar flowers added the perfect touch to really make it feel like a unique elegant affair.

Colorful Floral Watercolor Wedding Inspiration

July 19, 2018

Today’s beautiful and colorful styled shoot took place at the historic Whitehall Manor in Annapolis, Maryland. The venue was built in 1764 and the grounds made for a stunning backdrop. They were perfectly for this pastel Maryland wedding inspiration. Between the hundreds of acres on the property, the classic brick, the open waterfront space, and the magical “pink room,” this styled shoot is one to swoon over.

One detail that really made this styled shoot was the abundant colorful bouquets. From all of the colorful ribbon to the eye-popping hues of pretty flowers, each hand-made bouquet created a perfect picture detail! We also love the hand painted watercolor invitation suite and the live, on site painter. These beautiful touches would elevate any wedding. And don’t miss the bride’s gown! The sleeves are jaw droppingly gorgeous. Thank you to Missy Freeman Photography for sharing this wedding inspiration with us today.

Pastel Floral Wedding Inspiration

June 29, 2018

This Frederick, Maryland wedding shoot at Dulany’s Overlook was inspired by local flower farms, celebrating all the unique, lush flowers they grow. The Maryland floral designer who helped create this shoot, Blair of Sweet Blossoms, really prioritizes local flowers and supporting flower farms. For this shoot, she partnered with three local farms: Plantmasters, Petal Patch Flower Farms, and Tierra Blooms. Supporting local farms aids small businesses and the local economy while also reducing your carbon footprint. It also allows your flowers to last longer! And what could be better than long lasting beautiful blooms?

Many of the flowers in this shoot are bi-colored, which adds a hint of whimsy. And a lot of the greenery used is unknown to people outside of the industry. This makes it visually intriguing as it’s not something you see everyday! The gorgeous pink branches are even cuttings from a tree. How cool is that? These elements aren’t usually asked for by clients, but they are elements your DC area florist likely knows about and can use if given some artistic license. Find vendors you can trust; and then allow them to provide suggestions or take the lead on some of your ideas! Thank you to Brielle Davis Events for sharing this lovely pastel floral wedding inspiration with us today!

Farm to Table Rehearsal Dinner Inspiration

June 14, 2018

The “Farm to Table” movement has become incredibly popular these days and we couldn’t be more excited about it. For today’s wedding beauty, Hitched by Heather literally brought the table to the farm for this rehearsal dinner inspiration shoot. With an idea to show couples a casual and fun option for their rehearsal dinner, this amazing team brought a unique rehearsal dinner to life. Birds of a Feather Photography did an amazing job capturing all of the beauty of today’s styled shoot. Thank you for sharing this wedding inspiration with us today!

They changed things up by using a serpentine style table with a check print tablecloth courtesy of La Tavola Linens. The guests dined on all locally sourced foods served family style with pie tins for their plates. In addition, dessert featured mini servings of cobbler in individual size cast iron skillets. Guests also received a stack of recipe cards for each of the menu items. What a fun touch! Favors often get left at the dinner tables after a night of drinking and dancing, but offering your guests a meaningful wedding favor at the rehearsal dinner is a surefire way to make sure these pieces are taken home and cherished. Menus were printed on flour sack towels, another unique touch. After dinner guests pulled up a hay bale and watched family videos of the bride and groom and enjoyed a popcorn snack.

The floral designs and table decor featured seasonal flowers and local produce. The table design was kept casual using wooden bread bowls as vessels for the flowers and wooden pillar candle holders. The rehearsal dinner invitation was full of watercolor fruits and vegetables; we loved that these elements mimicked the food used in the various recipes throughout the meal. Chickens, guinea fowl and ducks roamed the grounds making the experience even more authentic.
