Stylized Shoot: Modern meets Vintage - reveal

Pantones colour tangerine is the in colour for this year. It is such a vibrant and strong colour that i feel just exudes happiness. It is also a strong colour and I felt the strength in this would accentuate the "modern" feel combined with the blush pinks and butter yellows to tone down and bring in the more "vintage feel".

The colours were easy to work with and I think it turned out very well. I can see why this is the "in" colour for this year.

I love the brides dress. It may seem similar to you...this time last year a particular Princess wore a dress similar to this. Our version, from Isabelles Bridal, has shorter sleeves and a shorter train. We added a rhinestone belt for some glam and some modern jewellery from Keltie Leanne Designs. The little flowers girls dress was also a touch a vintage but a glamour sash, encrusted with crystals, pearls and bows added just the amount of modern glam we were looking for. The large flower from Adorn Atelier was perfect for our flower girl, adding a soft romantic element.

Like any wedding, everything is in the details.

And it is not a party with out cake. This stunner was made by the talented Melissa from Buttercream Couture, who not only made the cake, but then modelled as the bride and had her daughter be the flower girl!

I am so excited to have been able to work with such an amazing group of talented vendors. I loved everything about this shoot and really feel like the vision came to life!
