Vintage Country Photoshoot

So here is the moment some of you have all been waiting for:

The Vintage Design Shoot

Every aspect of the day was planned by yours truly....me! I wanted to bring some local vendors together for an inspiration/networking photo shoot. I wanted it to be something that me and the other vendors could put together to show brides just how great the local talent is and give ideas on how to think outside of the box without breaking the budget.  So without further Ado......

Look at this model! Danielle are you a knock out! But of coarse we wouldn't have these Stunning, Amazing, Beautiful...well you get the idea.....Photos from the MOST talented, adorable Camilla Binks with Camilla Photography.

Lets talk about the dress next....UM HELLO!! They call her Milena. O if i could get married again this would be mine! The ruffle detail on the bodice and those delicate rosettes on the skirt make my heart melt. She was a perfect addition to our country shoot. You can find this little number at Avenia Bridal. Nancy and Lisa were a dream to work with and were so accommodating. Their couture gown selection was unbelievable and the customer service was top notch.

The Icing on the cake was literally The Cake by the sweetest Julie Hill of Layers Cake. Her technique and attention to detail are impeccable! I gave her some inspiration and she came up with this amazing piece! Perfect! 

How adorable are these custom root beer float cupcakes from Loves Tasty Cakes!!

Every item from the shoot was either bought at the local thrift store or was laying around my design studio. Mismatched plates, chairs and vintage milk glass vases popped on top of the forgotten, now refinished, picnic table painted the perfect shade of turquoise.

Stunning hair and make-up artistry done by the ever so talented Cynthia Dean at Enizio. She created the perfect 40's look I was imagining! This girl is super sweet and insanely talented

You'll also notice a 2nd short dress. This one just couldn't have fit the scheme better. Drew from Pricilla of Boston Vineyard collection was a great addition to the day! Also found at Avenia Bridal

Printing done by the fabulous Eastwind Creations. Custom invitations, menu cards and seating numbers with country twist. So darling!

More details to come. Also want to send a HUGE shout out the the talented ladies/vendors that made this shoot come together. You each brought something spectacular to the table and I can no that you enough!

Saturday was the nuptuals of Liz and Johnny. The morning started early with these first creations....

                                         

And ended the afternoon with these centerpieces

Liz wanted something that went with the decor at Archibald's in Gardner Village as well as her favorite flower -Gerber Daisies. So fitting for Liz with her bright smile.
    Bridal party flowers were cream gerber daisies, springs of green hydrangea and golden magnolia leaf. All wrapped in the perfect shade of antique gold.
 White vases were adorned with antique gold lace and filled with antique green hydrangea, garden roses and wax flower. 

Vintage Creations

We provided some florals this weekend for our friends at Eastwind Creations. They wanted something that tied in with their blue booth at the Provo Bridal Fair. I wanted the florals to compliment the booth rather than stick out and be the main focus.......so I went with more muted tones. One color scheme I love is apricot and blue. This was the perfect scheme for the florals. We used various shades of apricot, creams, silver and blush tones.

Juliet garden roses, silver brunia, dusty miller, blushing brides and cream spray roses. Blair wanted something a little un-traditonal so we did just that. Feathers were used as a collar for the bouquet and an unusual type ribbon tied in a bow, finished it off for an overall vintage feel.  

 Some more non traditional vases were used as well. A cream milk pitcher was used to hold the blue muscari, juliet roses and cream lisianthus.

This vases held an assortment of lush blooms that smelt like heaven! A unique collar of dusty miller added so much to this piece of garden roses, hypericum berries, blushing brides and cream lisianthus.

Hope the show went well for Eastwind Creations!
