Fly Away With Me: A Retro Elopement Style Shoot

Can you imagine? A young couple jumps town in a small plane to wed each other secretly. The woman glows at the thought of jetting off to marry the man of her dreams. The breeze rustles across the tarmac (and the groom’s great 1960’s-esque hair) as they walk hand in hand, warmed by the setting sun and silhouetted by their gorgeous getaway plane. Sounds quite perfect, if you ask us! For Jillian Keller of Frame Worthy Events, this is the story she envisioned and brought to life. 

Jillian, along with her team of talented vendors, aimed to capture the intimate, “oh my gosh, I can’t believe we just did this!” vibe without sacrificing the airy feel the unique venue provided. They achieved this with a warm, fall palette of red, navy and mustard yellow coupled with a retro flare. The bride’s beehive-styled hair, birdcage veil from Bridal Superstore and the old suitcases were a nod to the retro while the warm palette was echoed in the florals and beautiful, Parisian-inspired picnic foods from First Class Catering. The high-low, tea length bridal gown makes perfect sense for a jet-setting bride, and we love how this bold fashion choice works for today’s bride and allows her to show off her stunning shoes! What more could a girl ask for?
