Dark Romance – Enchanted Garden Wedding in Berry and Black

July 23, 2015

We were delighted to be a part of this Dark Romance editorial from Milou + Olin Photography and Creative Flow Co. featuring an enchanted garden set in the Berkeley Hills. The unique private estate at Panoramic Hills created a beautiful hideaway set above the Bay Area fog, with brick walls, vaulted ceilings, and a rich ambiance. Our brilliant Faux de Soie Magenta linen set the tone for a majestic palette of bright berry, black, and rich gold.

Deep colors, opulent metallics, and a thoroughly modern bridal look combined for a luxurious and on-trend shoot! The bride’s modern wedding dress created a romantic canvas for her dramatic bouquet by Tango & Foxtrot – bright fuchsia blooms, fresh greenery, and dark berries made a splash against her ruffled crop top and flowing skirt. The Sweetheart Table was set with our faux silk linen in Magenta and accented with onyx chargers. The luxe texture and bold color of the faux silk added a gorgeous sheen to the relatively simple table linen. China, flatware, and glassware were all in bold gold, with splashes of color from the watercolor print on the menu and a velvet ribbon at each place setting.

A dessert table was set beneath one of the windows showing a view of the Bay, with petite desserts by Lovely and Sweet Events surrounding a wedding cake from Pretty Please Bakeshop. The matte black cake was delicately adorned with glimmering gold leaf and accented with paper flowers in marsala, mauve, and blush to tie in the rich palette of the shoot.

A Citrus Summer Wedding in Southern California

March 10, 2015

As the East Coast digs itself out of the seemingly never-ending winter and the West Coast basks in the early spring sun, we thought this citrus summer wedding shoot from Fondly Forever Photography and Summer Newman Events would get everyone in the mood for warmer weather! We love the pairing of vibrant Southern California hues with our chic, neutral Ankara Taupe linens, not to mention the gorgeous feature on 100 Layer Cake!

One look at this California chic shoot and you can hear the birds chirping, smell the fresh grass on the summer breeze, and feel the warmth of the sun. To perfectly capture the laid back elegance of a Southern California wedding, Summer Newman designed a shoot that gorgeously contrasted lush green foliage and vibrant flowers with neutral prints.

To capture the laid-back style of the Hollywood Hills, the aptly named Summer set the shoot in the backyard of a sophisticated SoCal home of a friend. Verdant green hedges surrounding the lawn made it into an oasis of calm and vibrant colors. For the ceremony, K. Burnham Floral Design created an arch of greenery, dotted with bright berries. Elegant neutral chairs and a natural aisle runner added depth to the field of green.

With an intimate celebration in mind, Summer styled a long King’s table with our large-scale print, Ankara Taupe linen. A garland of greenery and bright flowers down the center of the table echoed the ceremony decor, while enormous crystal candelabras added an element of subtle glamour.

We adore shoots like this because they give us a chance to collaborate with some of the incredibly talented event professionals in our ever-expanding community. This shoot was conceived and designed by Creative Flow Company and shot by one of our Bay Area boys, Clane Gessel Photography! Wente Vineyards provided a gorgeous backdrop for the colorful pastel flower arrangements from Roots and Stems. The copper vessels and beaded chargers added an on-trend metallic look to the eclectic flowers – king and pincushion protea, air plants, and cacti added an unexpected touch to romantic spring flowers like tulips, sweet peas, and ranunculus.

With a ‘Key to my Heart’ theme and a gorgeous palette of blush, white, and gold, this shoot became an instant Valentine’s Day classic! San Francisco’s Nimitz Mansion was the perfect choice for an intimate celebration – the striking architectural details created a lovely backdrop for the shoot, from the candle-lined aisle leading to the ornate mantel, and the gold chandeliers hanging over the Head Table.

Stylist and Planner Charmed Events Group used the crisp white walls of the mansion as a clean white backdrop and chose a romantic palette of blush and gold. Poppy’s Petalworks created classic arrangements in soft pink and white, lining the aisle and the top of the mantel in silver mercury glass vessels accented with lace and hanging pearls. The elaborate Head Table was set with our scrolling Billie’s Roses Ivory linen, which added a hint of pattern to the table in a delicate tone on tone print that didn’t distract from the gold rimmed china and glassware.

A flowing Amsale gown for the bride made a romantic statement – the non-traditional color paired with loose, flowing waves and a stack of statement bangles was the perfect, relaxed look for an elopement! The couple exchanged vows barefoot in front of the fireplace, surrounded by the glow of candlelight.

Glamorous Rooftop Wedding Shoot in New York City

January 14, 2015

We’re jumping from wine country to the big city with today’s shoot – a glamorous rooftop wedding in the heart of New York City! An amazing team of Bay Area wedding pros headed to the East Coast to bring this urban glam bridal shoot to life. Our frequent collaborator and designer extraordinaire Christine Cater Wedding and Event Floral Design asked us if we would like to be a part of the magic and of course, we said yes!

Seen the rest on Grace Ormonde!

This talented team from the Bay Area braved chilly NYC winter winds to capture this wildly glam shoot at the Tribeca Rooftop Lounge. Wintery silver pieces and mirrored elements gave the decor a crisp, modern look that was perfect for the city surroundings, along with chic black and white details. Grace Aston Photography wowed us with her incredible portraits of an elegant city bride in a La Sposa gown, with a feather adorned bodice and fluttering chiffon skirt. A pair of jeweled Prada heels added a welcome hint of rich color in the Pantone Color of the Year, Marsala. As much as we love the sparkling silver cocktail station in our signature Paris Silver and the amazing ombre purple florals, our favorite detail has to be the adorable dog in a striped ribbon tie!
