One of the first times Sarah and I met, we somehow starting talking about the magazine, Southern Weddings, and how we both LOVE it, and so badly wanted to do set-ups like they have in the magazine!
Several months later, we both nailed down a time to make our ideas come to life! From this first shoot, we have now planned two more which are “southern” inspired as well, but will include much more styling, “bride and groom” models, and some fun items from other vendors as well!
This first shoot includes some things that are very precious to me; silver, china, and crystal from my great great (prob a few more greats) grandparents from Puerto Rico, they are all dated in the late 1800’s…For some reason this is beyond cool to me! I also used brass candlesticks that my grandmother gave to me, they fit perfectly in to complete my look, the ladderback chairs were also given to me by my mom’s friend!…
Hope you enjoy our work!
How fun is that candlestick! I made the runner with green burlap, coffee stained some lace and gathered it to add to the runner, and painted a monogram on it! The arrangements, I wanted to be very organic and asymmetrical, all kinds of fresh flowers were used to complete the look!
I bought a vintage hanger from an antique store to hang MY wedding dress on! Its been stuffed in a bag for almost 4 years!
The fabric was my inspiration! As soon as I saw it sitting on the big fabric bolt it was screamin my name! I covered the chairs I bought rom and antique store, and paired the green burlap with it, from there I ordered specific fresh floral to compliment the colors in that one piece of fabric!
Thank you so much Sarah for all your hard work, and being so cool! I think our first shoot was a major success! Next up “Simply Southern” comin hot in March!
