I have been dying to share this rustic themed styled wedding shoot! Thank you Artfully Wed for the lovely feature and for the awesome team of people who made this magic happen.
Inspiration for this bridal shoot began with the stunning Liancarlo bridal gown, with Italian embroidery of flowers that cascades into layers of tulle. It was the actual wedding dress worn by the model, Gina, at her own wedding. {Gina was married on New Years Eve in sunny California. Her wedding was full of glimmer and gold, white florals, and confetti in a ballroom adorned with chandeliers and sparkle. It was gorgeous and glamorous.} I envisioned bringing a bit of that glamour to the East Coast countryside, adding a touch of rustic flare.
It was late Fall when all the trees were bare but the ground still flourished with greenery. The rolling hills and dried up sunflowers and cornfields provided the perfect backdrop for the lush floral designs and lavish elements. Amie Decker of Amie Decker Beauty is the artist behind the bride’s makeup. She used the perfect pink blush paired with berry colored lips, to create a romantic, yet dramatic look. Danielle Sinclair of Amie Decker Beauty styled the beautifully twisted hair that was side swept with soft, flowing curls. The hairpiece by Untamed Petals, and provided by Garnish Boutique, added a lovely organic component with its’ Navette rhinestone leaves and flowers entwined. The lush florals, table design, and decor by Bella Fiori Flowers popped beautifully against the country backdrop. The table top was made with pallets, paired with a mix of vintage suede and wooden chairs, and decorated with an overflowing purple crushed taffeta tablecloth and an eggplant petals runner ed-hrvatski.com. The oversized lanterns with candles and the bridal bouquet were filled with white hydrangeas and purple hues of garden roses, picasso callas, tulips, lisianthus, and dendrobium orchids. The silver plated flatware and tall candle votives added a touch of glimmer. The rich hues of the paper goods and invitation design by Little Bit Heart were the perfect dramatic accent, and the red velvet cupcakes and heart cookies by Kupcakes & Co added a sweet sprinkle of romance.
Thank you everyone for providing your talents and passion for this shoot!
