Mexican American Heritage Inspiration

Photography by Kim Branagan

Courtney Pino of Loblolly Farm designed this editorial to highlight how couples can incorporate their cultural heritage into their event design. To celebrate a Mexican/American heritage, Courtney styled with bright colors and let her floral design take the lead. Seasonal, early summer blooms of dahlia, garden rose, peony, cosmos and zinnia, steal the show in their stunning bold, summer palette. Traditional patterns, prints and bold colors brought out the essence of the American Southwest and its Mexican inﬂuence. The vibrance of the terra-cotta orange with pops of rich blues stuns in the invitations byWith Wild and Grace and on the tabletop. Photographer Kim Branagan capture all the details (including some pretty fab bridal accessories) in these fun, film images.

Industrial Moroccan Inspiration Shoot

photography by Studio Brown

Design team Paper & Moon found inspiration for this shoot from their trips to Marrakesh where they fell in love with the colors, textures and energy. Drawing upon the juxtaposition of an earthy terracotta palette and bright jewel tone the team kept the Moroccan-inspired atmosphere casual and intimate by using traditional poufs and Persian rugs. The airy, industrial setting of Chocolate Factory contrasted perfectly with the romantic and vibrant florals by The Informal Florist, artistic cake by Cove Cake Design and layers of soft textiles and mixed metallics in the tablescape. The laid-back, cozy and boho vibes feel so right, right now and we love the way it’s all captured in these images by Studio Brown.

Fall Goddess Inspiration Shoot

featuring Laura Kelly Photography

Elise, of TOAST Events, drew inspiration for this ethereal, fall editorial from the transformation of plant life throughout the seasons. When it’s cold, snowy and dreary outside, Elise finds warmth in the dried fountain grasses blowing in the wind and the withered wildflowers preserved in the snow. To bring her vision to life, Pollen Nation Floral Studio was enlisted to create the larger-than-life floral structure from dried grasses and blooms and suspended in the white-washed warehouse venue. The muted charcoal sketched stationery by LaFabère, the opulent hand-made crown from Sarah Walsh Bridal Jewellery, and textural blush cake by The Cake Whisperer add to the dreamy styling. Laura Kelly Photography was on hand to capture all the details seen here in her stunning images.
