It’s friday m’dears! And since we’re officially into fall, we thought we’d serve up your daily dose of pretty by way of this autumn inspired elopement. Event designer Forever Love Events made magic happen on this day and with these lush and lovely blooms by Ram Floral Be still my heart. Mariya Stecklair Photography, these images are everything!
From the team, “The idea behind this shoot, was to capture a sweet and romantic, intimate elopement in a purple garden that carried a regal charm. To pull out some elegant, unique elements and interweave with a more homelike, welcoming vibe.”
“With many shades of burgundy being strong contenders for fall, a warmer purple palette felt like a fresher take on a warmer fall color.”
“With fall being a season of brisk mornings with only slight touches of warmth lingering among the yellowing leaves, adding a purple tone was the goal to add some warmth.”
“The beautiful and regal Tyler Gardens – was a perfect venue to hold this intimate affair. The masonry and landscaping of the grounds were unforgettable.”
“Those details added a level of sophistication and brought out the fairytale factor.”
“The gold details throughout the table settings, cake, and calligraphy agate slices added a touch of style and symbolized wealth and prosperity.”
“The gorgeous – unique hanging – wedding cake was a great symbol of unity as it had the blue and gold detail which symbolized the blessing of the union.”
“The bird chosen to be placed at the top of the cake is the Eastern Blue Bird, a common garden bird…The floral and greenery detail on the cake is all hand crafted and perfected to be a hanging show stopper!”
“The bride wore a gorgeous Maggie Sottero Designs dress (by Desiree Hartsock) which had stunning beadwork and a royal-like train and she just flowed down the stairs with grace and glamour, to her groom.”
“Her makeup classic and hair ethereal, Jazmin Rae Makeup did amazing job with the bride’s look!”
“The purple tones were carried throughout the luscious blooms in the bouquet, boutonniere and table arrangement; throughout the details of the stationary, table napkins and donut display.
“The idea behind the donut display was to have a fun and welcoming, sweet station for some late night snacking.””To showcase the donuts in a pretty, organized and fun way – this frame display was created with even rows of hanging donuts to make more of an impact. Donuts were compliments of Beiler’s Doghnuts“
“To stop over at the station and look at a framed picture of donuts with donut holders that look like candle holders…”
“The holders were created out of wood and painted white with a touch of gold for an elegant yet organic look.””This added that cozy and intimate vibe to an outdoor garden space in the twilight hours of the elopement.”Calligraphy by Haven & Hasbrook was added to agate slices which made for the loveliest place cards. But the ultimate standout from this shoot? Can we just all pause and talk about the beauty that is this cake designed by La Linea Desserts?So much love for these insanely gorgeous sugar flowers! And how fabulous is this hanging display idea?Persnickety Invitation Studio did a beautiful job with the custom stationery for this shootAnd we just love how the berry and vine motif was carried throughout.
