Fete De Fleur Styled Shoot

May 16, 2013 Carrie Wildes

One of the best things about what we do is if we want to do something really fun and totally creative we can! We partnered up with Linda, from Linda Marie Weddings and Events, and Jana from Events in Bloom and they really came up with the theme and concept and it turned out beautifully! Besides the photography, really my only contribution was the dogs:-) Linda explains it much better then me so you can see the detail below. Styled shoots are a lot of time and works so we are really purposeful in making sure to get them published so it's a win win for everyone! This one is featured on Weddingwire today as well!!

"The styled shoot's name is "Fete Des Fleurs" (meaning Feast of Flowers in French). The original inspiration was from a swatch of striped fabric which was used for the napkins, the ties in the groom, our adorable puppy groom, as well as the sash around the bride and the bridal bouquet. Two of the main colors from that swatch were used for the linens and the florals, which I imagined being perfect against a lush green natural backdrop. The reasoning behind the feast of flowers was to create an atmosphere of feasting in a french garden, with a combination of florals, succulents, vegetables, and fruits as the main courses. Our paper suite was gold and pink French font, flourish and romantic. Our striped candy kisses was a sweet ending to a wonderful meal! The "piece de resistance" was the striped organza Hayley Paige wedding gown, playing off the stripes in the inspiration fabric. Which was shipped straight from the runway in New York"
