Modern, Moody & Whimsical Styled Shoot at Sage Restaurant
The inspiration for this shoot came from the main aspects of the color scheme! I really wanted to blend together sharp black tones with neutral colors and mauve pops. With lots of black and white being utilized in wedding trends, I wanted to give the vibe a bit more with additions of acrylic details, whimsical florals, and gorgeous attire with simple style yet sharp details. We wanted to play down the pops of color in this shoot to allow for the smaller yet exquisite details to shine!
The color palette consisted of black, shades of pink and blush, whites, and neutral beige tones. I love the high contrast of the floral colors and whimsical textures with the modern black bud vases and compote bowls. Sage was the perfect backdrop for my vision because of the dark wood tones and industrial elements. The main focus of this shoot was to also allow our future and existing couples to see how a sweetheart table can go from a linen table with a repurposed bouquet to a show stopping centerpiece where they will be seated for their Reception! With the clear pedestals, you can see how we repurposed the florals into the feet of the sweetheart table to make a more grand tablescape! How gorgeous?! Focusing on the small details with the acrylic signage stating “Newlyweds” instead of a table number for the couple, having mini wedding cakes to make sure the couple of the hour still gets to eat their cake and enjoy it’s beauty, as well as the attire details including gorgeous gloves and a pocket square style boutonniere, there was no detail left out!
The Hikari Arch from Posy Exchange looked gorgeous standing in contrast with the floor to ceiling windows of the 3rd floor event space at Sage. It brought a beautiful whimsy, dreamy element to the shoot! The tabletop rentals from Set and Styled included the flatware, glassware, and china, and graced the ultra modern acrylic table from Palacios. The black bentwood ceremony and sweetheart table chairs came from Palacios as well. Lily Bella created the perfect blend of moody and whimsy florals! The shades of pinks and beiges were accentuated perfectly by the black bud vases on the sweetheart table! The cakes from CC Sweets were the cutest! I could not get enough of the black and gold cakes, and was obsessed with the lacy details on the mauve cake. The tablescape was finished off with perfectly modern table numbers, place cards and drink tags from Laconic Events.
Our sweet models looked absolutely stunning in their attire! The gown from Truly Forever Bridal fit like a glove and was complemented by stunning hair and makeup from Beauty Vibes Artistry. Stephanie Lanni Photography captured everything with stunning, fine art detail. Each photo flawlessly displays the editorial essence that I wanted to create!
