Reveal: Playful and Crisp Wedding Style Editorial

Today I’m going to walk you through the execution of this editorial I created over the summer. While a photo shoot does not come together in the same way that a real wedding does, I go through much the same process with a lot of the behind-the-scenes design planning.

Right from the onset of a personal project like this, I usually have a pretty good idea of what I want to do. When I’m working on wedding flowers, I also usually have a clear picture of what I want to do for you. But when I’m working on event design for a couple, it’s more of a process of pulling ideas out of you, then teasing them in my mind to see how I can expand on it.

Elegant, Rustic Wedding at Hawthorn Estates

Working with Sarah on the floral plans for her elegant, rustic wedding to Cam, at Hawthorn Estates, was a breeze. She came to me with a clear vision: romantic, simple elegance, and wanting the beauty of the venue to shine through.

Hawthorn Estates is a gorgeous venue, which makes it really easy for me to work at! One of my favourite luxurious fall weddings took place there, and with a deep red palette, it looked a lot different than Sarah and Cam’s, which is really cool. I always want each of my weddings to look and feel differently, even when they’re at the same venue.

Whimsical Garden Inspired Wedding at the Gates on Roblin

I remember being excited when I received Thao’s initial inquiry. She described her vision of a whimsical, dreamy garden inspired wedding at the Gates on Roblin, wanting greenery intertwined with string lights on the ceiling. Suffice it to say, I was pretty enticed with this idea!

Garden Inspired Wedding Style Spilling Over with Colour

Classic and neutral palettes will always be popular, and for good reason…but for all of you who are in love for colour but might be afraid to use it, this one’s for you!

Coral, peach, blush, taupe, plum, terracotta. Rich, jewel tone greens. Crisp black accents. An energetic palette like this one lends a sense of happiness, of life, to a celebration but here’s the thing: you don’t have to go “Crayola bright” to use vibrant colour. This is bold but still feminine, modern and still elegant.

Romantic Garden Wedding at the Gates on Roblin

It’s taken me quite a while to put together this blog post for Sabrina and Giuliano’s garden wedding at The Gates on Roblin, and for a few reasons:
1) Brittany Mahood’s photos are amazing and there are TONS of them so it’s really hard to choose!
2) I loved being a part of this wedding SO much and somehow, finally blogging it makes it really feel over.
3) Along with floral design, I also took care of their entire event design. Sabrina and I walked through every visual aspect of their wedding and designed a gorgeous celebration.

So here we are: a garden-inspired wedding with a palette of mixed pinks and mauves, incredible calligraphy details, mini sized Nutella guest favours, a pasta course…AKA the best wedding a person could ever want to be a guest at!
