Wistful Romantic Wedding Photo Shoot
Now that I’m finally back to blogging on a regular basis and sharing some of the gorgeous weddings and events I’ve been part of over the last year, I knew I needed to share these images from Florence Photography from our Portfolio Builder last spring.
These images are romantic, and wistful, and have a bit of old-world charm to them, with a really sleek editorial vibe that I’ve come to know as Florence Photography’s signature style. I love the moody flirtation she captured!
Portfolio Builder designed in collaboration with the one and only Emily from Feast & Festivities.
A dreamy outdoor location in a leafy grove, a delicate butterfly theme, a whimsical floral garden…I loved designing this photo spot with the intention of creating a naturally growing garden. We wanted to add the ladder and I had the perfect old ladder in my yard…except I didn’t realize quite how rickety it was 😂 It’s not surprising that she didn’t climb the ladder lol!
This location — it was such a dream! Emily found this circular grove of trees in Churchill Drive Park and always thought it would make an amazing wedding spot. She was right. With champagne draping and wicker pendant lights suspended from the trees, it’s the perfect little spot for an intimate dinner.
If you’re spending money on a wedding cake — PLEASE make it a focal point at your reception. Give it its own table, throw a specialty linen on it, add some flowers around it (you know I love doing that!), add a specialty bottle of champagne for the two of you to toast with…just give it its own moment.
There are so many pretty textures and elements tucked into this overall design that make it what it is. — repeated butterfly details (the sweetest sugar butterflies on the cake, gold butterflies on the escort cards, 3D butterflies on the bride’s gloves) is one of my favourite pieces. Add to that the layered table linens with dual runners lining the length of the table on either side, the rattan baskets, and the ribbed beeswax candles…it all adds up to an overall lovely design!
I chose to do one long, lush floral arrangement down the centre of the table here, tucking in the earliest locally grown flowers of the summer (ranunculus, delphinium, and pansies) in a juicy palette.
