Inspired by the beauty and grace of roses, this team wanted to create a style shoot that was ethereal and romantic! While they wanted glitz and glamour, the team wanted to go off the beaten path with their style shoot. We love how they utilized all the pastel colors of this shoot to make a scene as soft as the petals of a rose!
 

"As for the vibe and color palette, I wanted something that would embrace classical charm with bright playfulness," Hannah, the florist for this shoot, shares. "I wanted to speak to the future bride that might be afraid to stray from white and green and give them an opportunity to bring the same classical light into their day, just with a twist." On top of the classic rose, Hannah included uniquely shaped flowers throughout the shoot to help draw the eye to different details.
 

The team decided to use two dresses for this shoot. For the first one, they wanted a more traditional wedding dress with romantic sleeves and a popular corset-style bodice. The second dress is a dreamy, floral-patterned gown that brings an air of whimsy into this shoot. As for hair and makeup, the stylist used glowy makeup with pastel pink eye shadow and a romantic bun and braid that works well with both dresses.
 

Finding the perfect venue to host a style shoot is vital. This locale had large windows that let plenty of natural light into the space, lending to the organic aspect of the flowers. There was also plenty of white around the venue as well as elegant details like the chandeliers over the tablescape, which has plenty of opulent elements of its own. We love that the team chose to use colored linens instead of white to balance the white walls of the venue!

 

Instead of a cake, the team chose a more decadent dessert that fit this shoot better. The multi-colored macarons were perfect for this elegant vibe, especially the way the team carefully crafted them into the fancy pyramid. We are also obsessed with the cute little box they shared them in!
