Pearls and rhinestones seem to be neck and neck in the popularity race.
Pearls always remind me of my grandmother and the delicate lace collar blouses, she always teamed with her long strand of pearls…..she was a bleach freak and if anything ever yellowed into the bleach it would go! This was the inspiration for our styled shoot……..crisp white lace and pearls with a luscious mix of blush pink O’Hara garden roses, Miranda garden roses, Cymbeline garden roses, Lydia and twinkle bride spray roses!………the scent was amazing!
The Chuppah was the center stage of the ceremony and was created out of white vintage lace, that was delicately scalloped at the edge, and topped with a lush mix of the roses and hydrangeas. The aisle we lined with pure white iron lanterns that we dressed with pomanders and grey ribbon, these were alternated with our vintage white stands also topped with a lush mix of those amazing pink hued roses. We debated on whether to do a runner but instead decided that a path of rose petals is most girls dream!
The tables we dressed with grey….yes a break from all that pink!! With a white lace tablecloth. The two white candelabras had opened roses in each holder and then the large dome of roses placed on top! The swags of pearls had that decadent feeling and we connected the two centerpieces with the pearls . Silver mint Julep cups dressed the table each topped with the chosen pink roses…the table was finished with a crisp white cotton napkin tied with ribbon.
The bride, wore a white lace dress topped off with the most intricate lace jacket from Sincerity Bridal, her bouquet was a stunning mix all of all the selected roses. The maid of honor wore a vintage pink strapless Armani gown teamed with a grey jacket and grey pearls she then carried a small hand tie bouquet of 3 varieties of the roses!
The flower munchkins wore pale pink tutus with white lace trimmed cardigans and a pink sash and bow…..they were topped off with delicate halos of spray roses and cascading ribbon. One got to carry a pomander of roses with cascading pearls, whilst the youngest was carefully in charge of a white basket with pearl detail topped with mix of the roses.
Pink fluffy cupcakes were the perfect ending to such a delightfully perfect day!
