Inspiration…

This gorgeous styled shoot was inspired by delicate pastel florals, a vintage car, an Italian vibe venue, and unique textures.

The bride…

Wedding style & attire…

The bride donned a gorgeous white wedding dress from Solutions Bridal. With a ribbed waist and bust, a chiffon cathedral train, and a sassy slit going up the thigh, this dress is the definition of sexy and sultry! We used JC’s 1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Convertible as a backdrop for her portraits, and both bride and car shone brightly in the Florida sun.

Dessert table…

Cake & sweet treats…

The reception…

As we brought the bride to the reception area, she changed into a tulle dress that complimented her smooth skin, and the mix-textured theme of the reception. She went from sassy to sweet as she was enamored by the lush florals provided by Wild greenery. It’s safe to say she brought all the drama to this shoot!

The design…

Featuring a floral tablecloth, gold and white silverware, and luscious bouquets, this tablescape is what dreams are made of. The combination of smooth and textured may seem at odds, at first, but they are quite complimentary, creating a beautifully crafted reception table.
