We have had the privilege of having multiple top tier wedding professionals use the Estate for styled shoots this spring. Not only has it been fun to work with them, it also creates fresh inspiration for you! Today I’m thrilled to share some of my favorite images from a styled shoot – European garden inspired.
Ashley (Ashley Elizabeth Photography) and Danielle (Your Sweetest Day Events) gathered a team to run with the vision of a European Garden style wedding. Not only did they find the perfect couple to model, they also made such a stunning, yet simple vision truly come to life.
The Details
I’m a sucker for the details! Prairie Letter Shop created the most beautiful invitation, adding that touch of the garden to the inside of the envelope.
You can find this stunning rose gold set at Finch Jewelers. Sitting pretty in The Mrs Box.
Dinner for Four
They put the intimate bridal table in the middle of The Formal Garden. With the fountain in the background, this screams romance! The farmhouse table mixed with ghost chairs is an eye catching statement. Add in the bride & groom chair signs from Ever Laser and gorgeous florals from Forte Florals and you could stare at this scene all day.
Drumore Estate
Ashley really wanted to showcase the front of the Estate. It adds elegance and an air of sophistication to the whole vision.
Signature Cocktail
One of my favorite parts of the shoot is this bar cart from Modish Decor and Design. This fits perfectly with something we already do for our couples. After the ceremony, Scottie (our day of facilitator), will bring drinks and appetizers to you. You can have a private moment in the side gardens. Cheers to becoming husband & wife, as well as enjoy your signature drink and appetizers, all before greeting your guests.
The Attire
Basing the look on this stunning Anna Campell gown, from Lovely Bride in Philadelphia it was fitting to have the groom in a blue toned suit. Fun was added with the polka dot bow tie and the hair piece for the bride. Kristen (Unfading Beauty by Kristen) created a whimsical, yet elegant look for the bride.
Cake & Desserts
The semi naked cake, topped with sugar berries made by The Bakers Table complete the vision. Plus check out the mini pies, cute and delicious treats! Modish Decor & Design dropped off a few pieces, including this vanity, that is oh-so-pretty.
The Couple
If you’re noticing the connection between bride and groom, it’s completely authentic! These two said, ‘I Do’ just a week after this shoot took place 🙂 Congratulations to Alex and John!
